That's sweet? Wonder how it really works and cost? Nothing like rolling around the freeway on an air bed...

 

In the video on the link posted above it said that it fills up with a c02 after the rip cord has been seperated from the bike (like jet ski keys) and it cost just under $500.... id say it works pretty good considering the guy flew and slid over 100yds and the only thing he got was a broken thumb

 

it says in the movie that it costs just under 500 dollars and it protects the entire upper torso also.
that seems like a kick *** idea.
good find

I saw this about a year ago, not sure if it was the same brand or not,b ut they worked the same way with a c02 cartridge and a rip cord.

 

Yeah i'm cruising along at 140mph

$395 less than some leather jackets why dont I ever thing of anything like this? Maybe a helmet that has get surrounded by sock-em-boppers right before impact! Who knows.

 

I could just see myself forgetting to detach the rip cord, and when I go to get off my bike POOF! I'm the damned Michelin man.

 

maybe I should watch my local news more....never heard about that.

 

+ a floppity google....(thats a really big number btw)

i wonder if wearing a suit made entirely out of marshmellows has the same effect? plus! if you get hungry whilst riding, take a chomp out of your arm and youre good to go!
