The Tack Rack supplies and fits Body Protectors which are an important safety requirement for any rider and particularly for children.
The safety and quality standard for Body Protectors is the BETA 2000 Standard which is a performance standard that meets all the requirements of EN 13158:2000, otherwise called the European Standard. All the Body Protectors we sell meet this standard.
Most riders would require a Level 3 Body Protector (purple label) which provides a level of protection that is considered appropriate for normal horse riding, competitions and for working with horses. Protectors to this level should:
- Prevent minor bruising that would have produced stiffness and pain.
- Reduce significant soft tissue injuries to the level of bruising.
- Prevent a limited number of rib fractures.
Prices for Body Protectors start at £65.00. We stock Champion Victory in all sizes and Champion Flexair body protectors which are available to order if your choice of colour isn't in stock.
