I am looking into it. Seems like a good alternative and is less expensive. If it brings the Leatt price down then that is a +. I know my kids safety is worth more than any amount of money, but is is nice to find a less expensive alternate especially in this sport. It looks to me like it may distribute the impact more and help both the neck and collar bone. Where the Leatt will help the neck and the soft foam braces help collar bones, maybe this will help both. It's worth a look. Just my 2 cents.

My son has the leatt brace and loves it, with that being said I feel that any company that is trying to give our kids more protection the better. I don't feel that you can put a price on safety but it is nice that we will have options. I hope it does everything that leatt does if not more.

I wonder about comfort. My kid says he doesn't even notice the Leatt while riding. I wonder about these??? Also the Leatt is battle tested so until I see some testing or actual crash results I would still spend the extra $$$. Hope it is a good product and I hope everyone buys something like this for their kids to help protect them.

I took these pics at the Indy show.......... I'm no photographer and they were in a plastic box…… like they didn't want anyone to walk off with them or something. But here yea go.

my son has used the foam neck collar from the go karts for the past 4 years and wouldnt ride with out it , we purchased a leatt brace for him 2 races ago and this is his take on them, ( dad it isnt tight around my neck like my other neck collar i can move around much better with this , so with that being said we looked at the evs and im sure it will be a great product but my kids like the freedom that the leatt brace gives them
