Specially designed for youth or smaller framed rider the Youth Neck Support functions when the helmet and support frame provide an alternative load path for the excessive energy that compresses the neck. If the helmet is in contact with the neck support at the moment of impact the overall load passing through the neck can be reduced, which may prevent a fracture from occurring and reduce the chance of muscular injuries from extreme head movement. Although it is not possible to eliminate the risk of any form of injury, the support has been proven to help reduce the most serious damage and minimize the risk of collateral injury as the impact load is channeled away from the neck.

Key Features:

  • Quick Release Closure System in case of an emergency.
  • Super lightweight construction.
  • Compatible with the A-5s Youth Body Armor and Youth Bionic Action Jacket.
  • Engineered to be used independently with the YNS A-strap supplied with the support.
Construction & Protection:
  • The YNS frame is constructed from an injected polymer compound that has been extensively impact tested on a range of off-road surfaces and varying temperatures.
  • The anatomically profiled frame promotes positive helmet contact in the event of a crash while allowing rider freedom of movement. Ultra-lightweight EVA foam on the support's underside for comfort and positioning, and to distribute the impact force over the widest possible area.
  • Quick Release Closure system for convenient engagement of the support also facilitates the quick removal in case of an emergency.
  • The rear stabilizer system helps to keep the support in position and is also designed to channel extreme energy loads away from the spine by transmitting it across the shoulder and helping to avoid serious spinal injury.
  • The support is supplied with the easy-to-use strap system which allows use over or under the jersey to secure the device on the rider.
  • The Youth Neck Support can be easily integrated with the A-5S Youth Body Armor to ramp up a young rider's overall protective coverage.
  • Category 2 PPE - EU 2016/425.
  • The rear stabilizer system helps to keep the support in position and is also designed to channel extreme energy loads away from the spine by transmitting it across the shoulder and helping to avoid serious spinal injury.

Who is Alpinestars?

The company started in 1963 when leather craftsman Sante Mazzarolo produced the first product bearing the Alpinestar name. At that time, motocross racing was just an up and coming motorsport event. Mazzarolo noticed the need for footwear that would protect the riders from the harsh condition of motocross racing. It was a success all over Europe that it has become the benchmark for future designs of boots.

As years went by, more and more riders started using Alpinestars boots and have become part of past motocross champions' success, and by the mid-'90s, they launched the first technical apparel line. Today Alpinestar is a household name when it comes to protective wear, not just by motorcycle riders but other racing disciplines such as  Formula one, Kart racing, and more. 

Innovation

What makes Alpinestar successful is its ability to innovate and create products ahead of its current competitors. They are able to mesh style, comfort, and safety into one, making it the most sought-after protective gear in the market.

Revolutionizing Protective Gears

In 2014, Alpinestars introduced the very first Airbag for motorcycles. Unlike with cars, the only protection a motorcycle rider has is their gear, and this is what Alpinestar provided. With their Tech-Air technology, they are able to utilize modern advancements such as accelerometers and gyros to create an airbag vest that would deploy the same way as to how airbags deploy in cars. Since its introduction, it has saved numerous lives both on the race track and on the streets.
