Atlas Brace with Airoh?

Ever since I got my airoh a few months back I haven't been able to wear my leatt as it's just too limiting. Anyone have experience with the atlas/airoh combo? Noticed that's what Anderson is wearing and thought I might give it a shot; the design looks a lot sleeker than the leatt.

I have an older atlas carbon with an aviator 2.1, it's catches a little bit. I stopped wearing it as much because of it to be honest

A friend of mine ran that combo last year and he never complained to me

Shocked this hasn't turned into a "neck braces are bad" debate. We haven't had one of those in a while.

Is that what you chimed in for? Silly

Thanks for the input guys, still sounds like it might be worth trying one on before I bite the bullet.

Thinking of getting a atlas air brace instead of my leatt due to the two pads being on my shoulders.

How does it fit with a leatt chestprotector and shoei helm?

My 11 yo son has worn a Leatt since age 3. At the track a few weeks ago, a fellow mini rider crashed with the Leatt. He was complaining of back pain. When they took off his shirt, you could clearly see where the Leatt dug into his spine area. I took my son's off right then. I won an Atlas two years ago here on the 12 days of christmas (Thanks GuyCool . and I love it. My son has a new Atlas under the tree as we speak.

Awesome! I like how the atlas straddles the spine as opposed to my 1st version leatt that would dig into the spine as you described.
