Innova Riding

Innova Riding is a Spanish brand specialising in airbag safety vests for equestrians. Their air jackets provide impact protection in the event of a fall, inflating within milliseconds when the rider separates from the horse.

How Air Vests Work

Innova air vests connect to the saddle via a lanyard. When the rider is unseated, the lanyard pulls a trigger that releases compressed gas, inflating the vest before impact. The airbag cushions the neck, spine, ribs and hips, reducing the force transmitted to the body during a fall.

Competition and Everyday Use

Innova vests are approved for use in most competitive disciplines including showjumping, eventing and dressage. The lightweight design fits under or over a show jacket without restricting movement. Many riders also wear them for everyday schooling and hacking, where unexpected falls can happen just as easily.

Reusable and Practical

After inflation, Innova vests can be reset with a replacement gas canister, making them a cost effective long term investment. The covers are removable for washing, and replacement parts are readily available.

Fit and Sizing

A properly fitted air vest should sit snugly without gaps. Innova offers a range of sizes, and correct fitting is important for the vest to perform as designed. The lanyard length should allow normal movement in the saddle without accidental deployment.
