ION CHEST PROTECTOR ARCON HD PRO Upper Body Protector

The CHEST PROTECTOR ARCON HD PRO from ION is the first of its kind and was designed in close collaboration with freeride legend Nico Vink. The centrepiece of the MTB upper body protector are L2 protectors on the chest and back, which were developed by REZRO and cover a particularly large area. The cleverly positioned REZRO Power Slide Caps in the front and back area provide additional impact and gliding properties in the event of a fall. At the same time, the pre-shaped protector vest offers everything you could wish for in addition to strengthening key areas of the body: optimum freedom of movement and outstanding ventilation. This upper body protector marks the beginning of the ARCON line, which does not compromise on performance.

Highlights & Technologies:

REZRO:
This protector gives you level 2 protection. What’s more, it is flexible, breathable, recyclable, biodegradable, lightweight and made in the EU. The materials and ingredients of the protector accelerate the biodegradation process. If a ReZRO product is disposed of in a landfill site, for example, the biodegradation process begins and only takes around three to five years, whereas plastic, by comparison, takes hundreds of years. The ReZRO protector technology offers protection in case of a crash by breaking the molecular bonds. This releases energy through heat and sound, a material behaviour that leads to the absorption of impact energy. The molecules recombine immediately after the impact and are reset to ZRO, i e. to zero.
