New Protection VestRXhorse, RxR Protext's protective vest for horse riding
ASA Technology, the heart of the system!Rider Wearing Vest
RXR Protect has developed the “Air Shock Absorber” (ASA), an exclusive patented system which encloses air in a honeycombed, inflatable, resistant and ergonomic structure. Applying this technology to equestrian sports allows us to offer a vest which has an optimum level of protection (level 3) and which, in case of impact, is capable of absorbing five times more energy than classic vests and eight times more energy than foam vests. Highly resistant, this microfiber vest is also both flexible and functional. Anti-microbial treated and breathable (it absorbs perspiration and moves it to the outer layer), RXR Horse guarantees riders comfort and hygiene – which means the vest can be worn under or over a garment, and even against bare skin.

RXR HORSE protector - high protection - light and comfortable.

Equipped with the best protection system on the market, the patented ASA (Air Shock Absorber) technology ensures maximum body protection and allows total mobility and comfort. The RXHorse vest has two inflatable valves (front and back) and an air pump, to allow you to easily activate its system. The vest fastens with Velcro closures and can be adjusted using the elastic side straps. The shoulders are reinforced with 10 mm-thick polyurethane foam. RXHorse was designed to ensure a level of shock absorption that complies with current safety standards ('EN 13158' and 'EN13158-2000-06').
The heart of RXR protector is its air-bladder and ASA technology. Its multiple inter-connected chambers allow air to pass back and forth between chambers through restricted air passages that absorb the energy from a fall or impact before it reaches your body. Clearly superior to the classic protection offered until now, with hard-plastics and foam, RXR protectors are providing the maximum protection in the horse sports market. For the tests, the products were placed on a table equipped with various sensors measuring the shock absorption and resistance capacities of the products. A strength/power of 12 KJ was applied, from different heights/angles, to the products and the results show that the A.S.A. system has 5 times more energy absorption/resistance than hard-plastic protectors and 10 times higher than foam-based products. Absorption time and distribution of the impact on the whole area of the product is clearly higher. ”
RXHorse is available in five sizes: S, M, L, XL and XXL.
NB: While the RXHorse vest offers a very high level of protection no guarantee can be given that serious injury or death will not occur by wearing the RXHorse vest. All horse relate activities can be dangerous.

What's new at Merlon Park:

Steve the builder is missing in action and has been hijacked by Shane
Rose to build a couple of extra cross country jumps for the up coming
Eventing Equestriad Australia at Camden on the 16th & 17th of May. We
couldn't really say much as Tom (Snr) is the event director & committee
vice president.

Merlon Park will be sponsoring three star & the lovely Rena is in charge
of the hospitality marquee - the pressures on. The marquee is in the
middle of the cross country course, has great food, wine & there will be
a band. Visit www.eventingequestriadaustralia.com.au for more info & book a
spot in the hospitality marquee.

We say good by to CHT Big Bucks (Harry) who has been sold and is off to
live in Japan - good luck Harry

Our next event is literally next door at Silver Hills, we will be
campaigning several horses - look forward to seeing you there.

We have introduced a finance service for some of our horses to help
riders buy a horse that may have been just that the little bit out of
reach - the best thing is it's interest FREE!
