Alpinestars Tech-Air 7X Airbag Vest

Specifically developed for road racing, track day use, light off-road riding and performance street riding, the FIM-homologated, Alpinestars Tech-Air 7x Airbag Vest system is derived from Alpinestars proven MotoGP Airbag technology. The fully autonomous, self-contained motorcycling Airbag System is engineered for racing, offering riders streamlined, low profile, and highly ventilated protection. The Tech-Air 7x provides riders with comprehensive upper body protection by covering their shoulders, chest, and full back. The integrated back protector is extended in length for additional protection of the coccyx (tail bone). The Tech-Air 7x can be used standalone or integrated within a compatible suit or jacket. The state-of-the-art, wearable Tech-Air 7x comes with an active electronic system that features twelve integrated sensors: 3 triaxial accelerometers (1 positioned on the back protector and 2 positioned on the shoulders) and 1 triaxial gyroscope (located within the back protector). These sensors monitor the rider’s body for shocks or unexpected movements. Developed through years of research in collaboration with over 50% of the world’s leading MotoGP riders and through the analysis of millions of kilometers and thousands of crashes to continuously enhance the systems intelligent crash detection algorithms. Upon the identification of a crash situation, which happens when the rider’s body is subjected to a high and/or sudden amount of energy, the algorithm will trigger the deployment of the protective airbag, providing unrivaled protection to the rider or passenger wearing the airbag vest. A maximum inflation time of 44ms results in a decrease of the impact force by up to 90% compared to a passive CE Level 1 back protector alone.
