 Sun May 22, 16 4:00 pm Waist harness/impact vs ribs |
 |
|
| Sure many of you have had that problem. Not sure if it's the hard crashes on the side/back or if it's the harness or a combo of both, but my ribs are taking a beating. Anyone had good results with impact vest, seems like might just ride up over the harness. Do I need to try a different harness, would like to stay with a waist. Have a mystic now. If it's as easy as getting a impact vest that would be awesome, just seems like they wouldn't stay where they need to with a waist harness on. Any recs? |

I started riding with an impact vest strictly for the added flotation.
The impact vest has not had any negative affects on my riding. |

| Doesn't ride up under waist harness? I've seen some pretty low profile vests strictly for impact just looks like the waist harness would push them up and get underneath eventually? |

No riding up, everything stays in place. |

Ion Vest + Ride Engine and no riding up at all. The added flotation is nice, but the real reason for wearing an impact vest is to make your pecs look HUGE.
