The EVS Race Collar collection is designed to offer protection against neck and collarbone injuries by reducing the risk of axial compression, hyperflexion, hyperextension, and lateral hyperflexion. EVS Race Collars are then further refined using test data and real-world feedback from riders on the track and the trail, along with further input from racers in the karting scene who also use these collars for racing.
Riding or driving will always involve a level of risk. Choosing to wear a Race Collar minimizes the risk of serious neck injuries in multiple scenarios without being uncomfortable or limiting your range of motion. EVS Race Collars are a simple and inexpensive device that adds an extra layer of injury prevention to your personal protective equipment lineup—no matter if it is for two wheels or four.
In the following overview, we present each model in the EVS Race Collar line and how they will help protect you from the next slam, impact, or crash that is an inevitable part of action sports.
