The Racesafe VeloAir Body Protector is a lightweight, slimline equestrian air jacket designed for young riders, offering discreet protection over a show jacket during training and competition. Its key benefit is rapid inflation in under 0.095 seconds, meeting the NF S72-800:2022 standard for reliable safety. A potential caveat is its reliance on a separate air canister, which needs regular checks and replacement.

This is the current European standard for equestrian airbag protection systems. Certification ensures the product meets rigorous safety and performance requirements.
The air canister is single-use and is deployed when the airbag inflates. It needs to be replaced after each inflation. Regular checks should be made to ensure it is securely fitted.
The VeloAir is designed to be worn over a standard show jacket. Wearing it over excessively thick or padded jackets may impede proper fit and function.
It is recommended to have the air jacket professionally serviced after any inflation. Regular visual inspections should be performed, and the manufacturer's guidelines followed for maintenance schedules.
While the VeloAir provides protection for various disciplines, its slim design is particularly suited for those where riders wear a show jacket, such as dressage, show jumping, and eventing.
The VeloAir is supplied complete with a CO2 canister, a saddle strap, a hex key for adjustments, and a dedicated storage bag with a hanger.
The outer shell can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or submerging the jacket in water. Always ensure it is dry before storing.
Check that the air canister is securely screwed in and that the saddle strap is properly attached to both the jacket and the saddle D-ring. Ensure the lanyard is connected.
Adjust the internal waistband using the toggles to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure it can be worn comfortably over your show jacket.
Ensure the waterproof zip is fully closed. Minor moisture may occur in heavy downpours; dry thoroughly after use.
Replace the air canister with a new, Racesafe-approved one. Used canisters should be safely discharged and refilled by authorized personnel or replaced.
