O’Neal Chest Protector
The O’Neal Chest Protector is made of high impact plastic using an injection manufacturing process. That might not sound particularly impressive but it forms the basis of a solid ATV or Motocross safety product that will last a long time. O’Neal chest protectors also feature durable graphics, spandex side straps and adjustable netted shoulder body armor to achieve a perfect fit which is CRITICAL for safety. O’neal offers several different chest protector models including the Hammer, Matrix and Striker chest protector.
If you take a close look at an O’Neal Striker chest protector you’ll notice that the graphics are actually embeded into the product instead of just on the surface, this means you could throw the chest protector on the ground, jump on it repeatedly and it would still work and look great. I don’t recommend you abuse safety gear like this but if you wanted to…
You can pick up an O’Neal Chest Protector new from the ONeal website or perhaps find a bargain on a used chest protector via ebay. Some current examples are shown below. Reducing the number of ATV accidents requires safety awareness, reducing ATV injuries requires safety gear, O’Neal can help with the later.
