Alpinestars Youth Neck Protector

The Alpinestars Youth Neck Protector is specifically designed for youth or less framed riders, Youth Neck Support works when the helmet and support frame provide an alternative load path for excessive energy that compresses the neck. If the helmet is in contact with the neck support at the moment, the total load passing through the neck can be reduced, which can prevent a fracture from occurring and reduce the risk of muscle strain from extreme head movement. Although it is not possible to eliminate the risk of any injury, the support has been shown to help reduce the most serious injury and minimise the risk of a safety injury as the load is channelled away from the neck joint.

Features:
• New compact and easy-to-use lightweight neck protector to fit children from 8 to 14 years

• Left and right rigid frames made of a polymer compound combined with the inner smooth-edged, soft-injected EVA unit provide the perfect fit and stable positioning
• Overarching frame construction dissipates energy loads by transmitting them across the back
• Flexible backward coupling between left and right frame allows headrest to follow body movement while driving
