Woulda saved me some broken ribs and months of healing time on my get off. Not sure what percentage of serious injuries in street crashes are torso related though. I thought it was mostly head and leg.

The best thing about that would be the neck support. I've had a couple were I could easily have damaged my neck but was lucky in the way I landed instead.

It might have saved my collar bone, not sure. Great idea. I have another source for rapid inflation with compressed gas, but it's usually only available at the wrong time. :oops:

MS, are you back to normal again? Any lingering affects?

No, I don't think I'm suffering any lingering effects, but "normal?" I wouldn't go that far.
