May 24, 201610 yr It looks like they might become compulsory/mandatory. Who makes them, which ones are recommended? I have one with one plate for the front (or back), for mountainbiking etc and some for MX and enduro but those are to big and hard for trial. But I think a backplate might be more usefull.
May 24, 201610 yr Become compulsory at the club level? That seems a little nuts, but, in any event... I wore this when I was still riding enduro: http://www.motosport.com/axo-air-cage It works fine for trial if you're inclined (which you might be depending on what level you ride at). The integrated elbow protection is great, and while it looks like it'd be restrictive, I find it largely unnoticeable.
May 24, 201610 yr I wear one of these http://www.oneal.eu/en/products/mountainbike/protection/0280-002_stv-protector-shirt/ A few other makes do a similar product, generally aimed at mountain biking. They are far less restrictive than the hard armor on a mesh vest type.

At WTC and EC level they are compulsory next season I think. National level will follow (depending on country). Edited May 24, 201610 yr by crazybond700

May 24, 201610 yr I use this Fox titan sport subframe. Its not to hot as a vest http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/fox-racing-titan-sport-subframe
November 1, 20169 yr if you ride also street motorcycle you may consider Dainese City Guard jacket - I use it for very hot days ride around town and for my trial practices. Saved me from several bruises when practicing in harder terrain....
