ATLAS AIR NECK BRACE
T
he Atlas Air Neck brace first entered
the market in 2012 and was designed
to address the comfort issues that
many riders faced with the first-generation
neck braces. It is designed to be light and
small in overall size. It's made out of ex-
tremely durable and impact-resistant poly-
mer. Polymer is flexible to "slow down vio-
lent impacts in an effort to spread out and
reduce impact forces, rather than coming to
an abrupt stop," says Atlas.
The Atlas Air Neck brace also features
a Split-Flex Frame design for comfort and
mobility, and like all Atlas neck braces, does
not sit on your spine or sternum but instead
on your bigger muscle groups of the body
to dissipate forces more efficiently.
Atlas claims the Air Neck Braces actually
contacts the body 27% more than other
neck braces which it says is beneficial in that
this helps better spread out impact forces.
The Air Brace is designed for easy entry,
is fully adjustable and comes with a hybrid
strap.
For some, neck braces
restrict mobility and are
cumbersome. The Atlas Air
Neck Brace takes aim at
these issues. Plus, they come
in a variety of sizes and have
plenty of adjustability.
