bike crash saved by an airvest jacket

when the chips were down it saved me

I just wish to thank you for your wonderful product. Last year at a motorcycle show at North Weald Essex, England, I purchased the top of the range Turtle Hi-Viz airbag motorcycle vest. I ride every day to work Romford Police station from my home village in Hockley come rain or shine on my Triumph Trophy 1200SE (about a 60 mile round trip).

Last Thursday 5/1/2017 at approximately 05:50hours I was riding to work on my usual route travelling at 50 kph when I hit Black Ice. Before I knew it I had been thrown off backwards heading for certain pain. I had forgotten I was wearing the vest when halfway to the floor I heard a slight bang and felt myself being reassuringly hugged. I hit the floor on my back rolling slightly onto my shoulder and slid approximately 50 metres on my back and shoulder.

My bike suffered right side fairing damage etc. I suffered no more than a slight strain to my armpits where the bike was pulled from under me. And a small bruise to my hip. I have no desire to test your product but when the chips were down it saved me from what I believe would have been a nasty back injury.

So from the bottom of my heart I thank you.
