Mr_Orange Added a reply to Does anyone wear their Atlas Air brace fully under their chest protector like this?
6/22/2019 8:59am I think you might be referring to the earlier a-10 model. I have the version that's dark grey with the lime green inner grate structure. The version that look very ventilated. I just finished testing the atlas with my a-10 and it does feel pretty comfortable with it fully tucked under. You have to adjust the a-10 shoulder straps a...

6/22/2019 7:40am Does anyone here use the Atlas Air brace under a hard chest protector like the first kid in this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsgDGxzt3W8 The video obviously shows that it works, but the reason i'm asking is that when doing some research on the Atlas brace, there's a lot of talk about it not being compatible with many chest protectors. I already bought...

6/21/2019 11:16am after 2 youtube videos i think i sort of get what astroturfing means... Settle down detectives, Im not some marketing guy. Neck braces are a relatively new thing so im even now a bit skeptical of them. I do like that there's something out there that prevents your neck from breaking though. Sorry if have i some questions before potentially...

11/23/2014 10:32pm Has anyone fallen flat on their back while wearing a neck brace? Doesn't that kind of a fall shove the neck brace into the back of your neck? Especially with the braces that have that long protruding plastic flap in the back as shown: http://www.dirtrider.com/wp/wp-conte...9/25322222.jpg I was testing out an Atlas neck brace at a store and i tried lying...

11/19/2014 10:33pm Noticed this old 661 neck brace and chest protector combo too: http://forums.mtbr.com/downhill-freeride/anybody-rocking-661-droid-5976… Wonder if it's just about having the neck brace tight against the body.

11/19/2014 1:40pm I think i did try it with a helmet on. Notice how the atlas brace is not even sticking out as far back as other neck braces: atlas: http://www.ppsmoto.com/pps-content/uploads/2012/07/atlas-neck-brace-rev… alpine: http://www.ppsmoto.com/pps-content/uploads/2012/07/alpinestars-bns-neck… leatt: http://www.ppsmoto.com/pps-content/uploads/2012/07/leatt-neck-brace-01… There's some neck braces that have chest straps. Maybe that would keep it away from your neck.

11/18/2014 7:16pm I actually ride mountain bikes. It just seemed like neck braces were more common in moto so i though I'd ask here. I've definitely landed flat on my back from looping out, or rolled onto my back many times. Definitely a lot more than I've scorpioned myself. I'm suprised it's so uncommon.

11/18/2014 4:34pm To see how the neck brace would feel if you fell flat on your back.

11/18/2014 2:34pm Nope. Don't know what your talking about. I'm just new to neck braces. I was close to buying that Atlas neck brace until i noticed this issue while lying down.
