WHY CHOOSE US
HAPPY CLIENTS
The second is the one posted here, and was a very rough fall. I hit the rails and the ground very hard and am still really feeling it 2 days later still. However, everything from the waist up is PERFECTLY FINE! My vest popped as I hit the jump and protected my spinal cord, for which I am EXTREMELY grateful! Having suffered a rib cage injury earlier in the summer, having this kind of fall without protection could have been WAY more catastrophic had I not been wearing my air vest! Thank you Helite Horse USA Canada for this incredible product, and Dianna Babington for encouraging me to get one! I am so happy to report that over half of my barn now rides in them too! Safety first!
A little fall last night… No boo-boo! My Helite Prestige vest in action played its role of guardian angel! Well on the other hand I broke my whip
