A highly innovative back designed exclusively by Davies
Odell to compliment its high performance body armour under
their TPro brand. The Armourflex back is designed to be
soft, flexible and comfortable. Therefore no hard inner or
outer materials are used in its construction, as these have
been known to have caused injury to riders in unforeseen
circumstances. Same as the
Forcefield Back,
but with no straps |

Armourflex
A combination of a unique triangular high tech shock
absorbing material in conjunction with a different
density base layer creates a versatile, soft and
lightweight protective layer. The innovative design
allows energy to be dispersed evenly across its
surface therefore reducing areas of high-transmitted
forces, which cause injury to the user. |
|
| |
|
|
Multi Layer
Layers of high tech shock absorbing Nitrex foams
offering soft, highly flexible and comfortable
armour that moulds to the user's body. The layers of
foam are perforated and stitched in such a way as to
allow partial movement of the inner layers. This
movement helps to pump air through the perforations
allowing air to build up and move between the layers
when in use. These air pockets assist in absorbing
the impact, therefore increasing the level of
protection. |

|
|
Perforation
Each Layer of Nitrex foam has a series of holes
specifically arranged to maximize performance and
breathability. These perforations also aid in
reducing weight and enhancing the comfort aspects of
the product. |
Even distribution of transmitted force

Forcefield
is a brand synonymous with high performance
protection, innovative design
and with commercial acceptability in mind. |
Back Protection for Motorcyclists
Only a few motorcyclists receive a direct blow
to the spine causing serious injury; more
spine injuries are probably due to direct blows
to the shoulders and hips. The products
commonly known as motorcyclists back protectors,
if correctly designed and constructed
may alleviate some minor direct impacts on the
back, but will not prevent skeletal or
neurological injuries to the spine in motorcycle
accidents.
The Forcefield back can be used in numerous
sports activities where impacts are an
inherent occurrence such as:
Motocross
Road Race
Speedway
Enduro
Paragliding
Plus
numerous other highspeed activities
