• Crash Absorb — specialized memory foam engineered for maximum shock energy dissipation during impacts and falls.

• Breathable elastic fabrics — nylon and elastane fabric blends integrated with silicone grippers to hold protective modules securely in position during intense movement.

• Modular architecture — detachable protective elements (such as tailbone or back pads) for easy maintenance, washing, and customizable protection levels.
