    It really works.
    On 1/26/22 I was working on my jumping with my trainer. Surprisingly, my horse bucked after the second jump (first time he had ever bucked), and I flew off. I had my Hit air vest on and was fine. Determined to not end the lesson on that note, I got back on and decided to canter some poles without my vest. Because what were the chances that I would fall off twice? Well, as we cantered through poles, my horse bucked me several times and I fell off onto my back. Resulting in breaking my L2 vertebra. No riding for at least 6 months and I have to wear a back brace for three months. It was the exact same fall as before, but because I didn’t have the air vest on, I fractured my back. This accident was a clear example of how the Hit Air vest can prevent injuries. It was the same type of fall, same horse, same rider and same ground, but with the vest I was completely fine. Without the vest I suffered a 25% compression fracture of my L2. Eight weeks in a back brace with no lifting more than 10 pounds, followed by physical therapy. No riding for 6 months and after than I will be on lead line lessons for weeks. All because I was I didn’t go get my second canister and reset my vest!
