Add a review (form opens in right column) reviewed by Luli79   on March 9, 2009   Pros Great fit, breathable, I have an older version of the pressure suit that has the removable spine protection. Cons None really, price maybe? I paid 175.00 for mine. Verdict Great upper body protection, fits like a glove, doesn't shift, and adds support. Recommended for: Extreme freeriders reviewed by Code_Rage   on March 8, 2009   Pros Shoulder protection is good, relatively thin and light. Fits well. Cons The spine protector holds quite a bit of heat. Would be nice if it could be removed. Verdict I like it, After a half hour or so I forget it is on. I really needed some shoulder protection after a stupid accident and this fit the bill. Overall it is very cool to wear when moving. If you stop your back starts to roast. I wear a large suit and with an XL jersey over it you can hardly tell I am wearing it. well, minus the hunchback from the spine protection. Recommended for: Extreme freeriders
