X D3O Ski/Snowboard Spine Guard

About the Demon X D3O

The X D3O Spine Protector adds to Demon's rich tradition of creating lightweight and highly functioning protection products.

D3O technology is a patented smart material known for its use in protective gear and impact-resistant products. The material is soft and flexible at rest, but upon impact, it instantly hardens due to non-Newtonian polymers within a dilatant fluid. This unique property allows D3O to provide effective impact protection without sacrificing comfort or flexibility. Widely applied in sports, industrial, electronics, and military contexts, D3O is utilized in helmets, knee pads, gloves, and other gear, offering a combination of comfort and enhanced impact resistance by dynamically adapting its stiffness in response to sudden forces.

Utilizing the Viper D3O Spine insert, the Demon Spine X incorporates a thin 3 mm pad that rests on your back between the D3O, while the adjustable shoulder straps and hip belts allow you to dial in the fit, keeping the Spine X close against your body.

Complete with a neoprene shell, the light and breathable X D3O Spine Protector from Demon is perfect for keeping the spine and lower back area protected while you get involved in all kinds of action sports.
