This is an amazing product. I use it for skateboarding but it has really saved my back a countless number of times, from scrapes, bruises, falls, etc. It doesn't fail to protect me. It has helped me commit to my tricks with ease, its great having the peace of mind that I'm protected. I love this thing!! Highly recommend :)

I bought the SpineShield for my 20 year old son who had back surgery 3 months ago to repair a herniated disk. It easily fit under his jacket and was comfortable enough to wear all day. He was able to snowboard in Utah all week without worrying about hurting his back again. He even took a pretty rough head-over-heels tumble on the mountain on day. We were both thankful for this wonderful protection! I don’t think he’ll ever snowboard without it again.

I’ve been riding for a decade and have had this spine protector since 2024. I also have back problems and would usually cause some strain the days after because of the falls and preexisting injuries. Once I started wearing this it took all of that away. Impacts no longer had the same hurt as previously, even when I fell on my stomach. Unfortunately in February, I got into an accident and hit a rock going about 50 mph at a drop on the run. I tumbled 5 times and almost lost my kidney. But I fell directly on my spine multiple times during each tumble and I know for a fact had I not been wearing that I would have likely suffered a life changing spine injury. Normally it’s extremely stiff to prevent your back from flexing back too much, but mine was flimsy. Meaning it did its job and protected me. Obviously I will retire that one, and I will FOR SURE purchase another one of these soon. If you’re in the fence about it buy it, 70 dollars could make a huge difference in saving your spine from a severe injury.

Started hitting the park more frequently, so I bought this thing I was skeptical but after riding with it on, it grew on me the product works its breathable and not noticeable if you’re hitting rails or big jumps you should buy this.!

I try my impact spine shield this week in ski and I was confortable with . I would like to be secure when I ski , because last year I broke 2 ribs when I fall down to the chair lift

So far I have not been able to use it, but it fits as expected and I expecte I will have more peace of mind as I try new ski tricks in the terrain park.

Size chart was helpful and right, fits perfectly, almost feel like you wear nothing while the protection is solid.

Order arrived promptly and on schedule. The ImpactShield I ordered unfortunately wasn't a great fit for me so I requested a refund which was promptly provided. Good honest retailer to deal with.

I started snowboarding 5 years ago at age 35. Now that I'm getting better I want to try new things like jumps but really don't want to get hurt. I was worried about these types of products being bulky or restricting movement but the spine protector feels great. Moves well with my body and gives me that extra confidence. Haven't rode with it yet but sure it will be great.

IF you are in the PARK, you need a back protector, end of! This is lightweight and there is no price you can put on the safety of your back, trust me I know! Would definitely recommend this...

I'll start by saying the Spine shield it's self is very well built. Flexible back protector and nice padding.
But the trouble I had with USPS who nearly lost my parcel has annoyed me. The guy on customer support at Rippl was very helpful and I know it's not his fault but nearly thought USPS had lost it.

Used this for the first time at Big Snow indoor center in NJ and I can honestly say this has made a huge difference to my confidence. This and the impact shorts mean I'm way less worried now when I fall on my back. I've progressed quicker in the last 2 times ive been than I did for a week last year. No brainer for me!

I havent tested on the slopes yet. But the quality feels really really good and I sat at my desk with it on for 4 hours and it's very comfy. The back shield is really well made as it's solid but flexible. 5 stars so dar!

Only recevied this 3 days ago so I haven't taken it away yet, but it defintly feels solid and it's lightweight which was one thing I was worried about. Doesn’t feel restricitive at all. Looking forward to trying it out.

I bought this for MTB and I love it!! I ride trails a lot, and have come off a few times with it on so felt I needed to leave feedback. It's definitely been worth it for me. I actually feel more confident rolling to my back than my front now.

My tracking wasen't working but Jho on customer service was super helpful, thanks! Product now recevied and it's really comfty to wear.

Delivered on time, feel good quality. Will review again after I've used it in a few weeks.

5 stars

I was concered this was going to be really bulky, but it's really light and fits well under my jacket.

Recevied! Can't wait to try it properly, but so far, love it.

Was meant to arrive Thursday but came Tuesday so rating 3 stars because of that. But the spine sheild is really really good. Feels nice on. I tested it on a branch outside and it does the job well so 5 stars for the product. Overall rating is 4 start. Delivery and product ratings combined.

Just arrived. So far so good. Very good quality.
