My mom is not going to let me ride the 700 once i get it until i get a chect protector  :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

So these are the 2 im looking at.. Money is tight since im going to have to pay for the 700, so keep that in mind and dont just say the Shift one for no reaseon. Thanks  :)

I'm mostly looking for comfort, im not really worried about the safety of it, i dont want one. But i need to get it to shut my mom up. As ignorant as those last 2 sentences sounded its true. COMFORT COMFORT COMFORT not safety  :lol:

The ARC one seems to have more happy consumers.

looks to me like the shift one would be more comfortable but the ARC has more protection IMO. I run a Fox prety similiar to the shift and I dont notice im wearing it, ever.

I have the Thor Quadrant Protector and although i haven't tried many on (fox air frame) is about it, Its WAY comfortable, adn I get to the point of forgetting I have it on even :thumbs:

i agree with kyle, i have a fox airframe and after like 5 minutes with it on i dont realize its there, and when i rolled mine right back on me, i had it on and it didnt hurt at all and im pretty sure i would have been sore if i didnt have it. i think theyre under 100 bucks too. dont know about the ones you posted tho sorry

I too have the Fox Airframe chest protector. I am at the point where I don't feel comfortable riding without a chest protector and boots on.

I know money is tight but I would suggest the fox airframe.  Well worth it for me.

If you can wait when the '09 gear starts showing up on shelves, all the '08 gear will be reduced in price. You just have to keep your eyes open to find the good deals.
