I hate the confusion of buying new things!! too many to choose from!
right well i need a new body protector as mine is falling appart.
i do not know whether to get a rodney powell which i like but then looking at that woof wear exo cage one as it looks very safe and the video on the website is very convincing.
has anyone got/had one of these and how do you find it.
 
I LOVE my rodney powell

please please please please please do NOT buy the woofwear exo body protector - i was told the most horrendous stories about them by a 4* event rider and several other people. PM me if you want to know any more info on it!

I use a rodney powell body protector and love it, i would also recommend race safe body protectors and airowear body protectors look good too.
 
Have a look at the Kan Tec one too - I tried one on the other day and they actually move as you breathe! I want to try one over a fence as it felt v diff to anything I've worn before and is pricey, but overall I loved the idea/feel in the shop.

I have an airowear reiver in kids XL which I like ATM
 
I love my Rodney Powell one too. Mine's kids size as it was so much cheaper than adults one! I'm impressed by the Racesafe ones too as they seem to have more movement and flexibility.
 
I have the new Kan Teq one - it was a toss up between it and the racesafe but the Kan Teq was more comfy on and I felt more protected in it. I must say that I do love it - I never would have worn one before but this is so good you don't notice that you are wearing it. Also with the small square foam bits I don't think the racesafe is as safe as others, if you imagine getting a knock on a small square of foam it would only be absorbed to the end of the square before it's absorbed into you, whereas a continuous panel of foam can absorb more shock
