Rodney Powell body protector with different layouts: Quartered
The shoulder protectors have to be purchased separately.
Now in its 23rd year, and its sixth generation, the body protector Elite is the best selling zip closure body armour from Powell. This success is due to its development process, continual innovation as well as repeatedly working closely with many of the worlds world’s leading event riders. The Elite is lighter, more breathable and more flexible than ever before. We offer the X2ESP back system, offering enhanced spinal protection twice of that that of standard. The front panels offer fantastic flexibility with the 4 layer glide architecture of the ‘Flextec’, combined with a comfort panel to provide superior comfort over the abdomen.
The ELITE is available in over 200 sizes as well as a bespoke made to measure service.
The ELITE is available in a choice of the Powell cross-country colours.
The ELITE conforms to BETA 2009 Level 3 and BS EN 13158 Level 3 – ASTM F1937-98.
The ELITE is compatible with Powell shoulder protectors (they have to be purchased seaparately).
Wearing a T-Shirt please take the following measurements:
A. Chest
B. Waist: The circumference of the waist measured around the line of the navel.
C. Waist to waist over the shoulder measurement: By draping the tape measure over the shoulder measure the distance from waist to waist.
D. Total Height
E. Back Length: Sitting in the saddle you use regularly, ask an assistant to measure from your C7 vertebrae (the bone which protrudes out at the base of your neck) down to where the seam of your breeches is touching the saddle. From this measurement deduct 5cm for general hacking or 7.5cm-10cm for jumping. NB. C7 is the vertebrae that protrudes most prominently out at the base of the neck.
Not everybody has a perfect shape - in case you are a little shorter or taller, a bit more or less than the standard - it is no problem to get the perfect body protector: each size has 3 different back lenghts and 5 different widths. Mail us your measurements or call us 0049-8247-395630 and we will help you find the matching size.
