Poster: A snowHead
|
My daughter was doing a freestyle class yesterday and was finding her admittedly cheapy Decathlon back protector, far too hot.
Are there any which are more breathable if she decides to carry on with freestyle over the summer?

Not really. Just wear over a base layer and skip thr jacket?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

she had it on a t-shirt. No jacket involved- thankfully it was starting to cool done by 7pm yesterday but we were talking mid 20’s temperatures.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Ah so it was outside on a dryslope not in a fridge. The issue was exercise on a very hot day rather than the back protector per se.

Yes - but was making it worse as that one certainly isn’t at all breathable in any way. Could well be they are all no good for that use case, but she was desperate to ditch it. Hence wondering if there are any on the market that are better (and worth paying extra for) versus the cheapy one we have

@ski3, are that’s a thought. May be worth looking at the mountain biking stuff for summer skiing

@NickyJ, the Cairn D3O ones that my kids use are about as "breathable" as I've seen, in that they have some ventilation holes in the foam; we use them for dryslope racing. However, they still aren't that breathable, they end a session pretty sweaty.
