Bottom Line:

The Helix Vest is totally killer! I own one myself, which I initally used for boardercross, but have since used it for MB all the time. It's solid, and can be easily worn under a shirt, without looking like Frankenstein. I think it the best value out there, and I wouldn't race or MB without it, ever!
