The Ribtect Chest Protector is primarily designed to help further protect young drivers and riders in motor sports venues such as; go kart racing and motocross events.
After repeatedly hearing about injuries to young drivers due to impact to the chest area; Ribtect decided to go to the drawing boards. Ribtect has developed a kid's chest protector using two layers of vacuum formed polypropylene plastic and sewn together with a Cordura liner. This product has been tested extensively by the SFI at the Delphi facility. With the results of the testing; Ribtect is confident that this product will reduce the level of injury in the sport of kart racing; motorcycle racing ATV racing; snowmobiling and other high performance motor sports activities.
