Dainese Wave G Back Protector 4.7 5 81 81
Like it says.. back protector I got the Dainese Women's Air-Flux Textile Jacket, and the G1 back protector fits perfectly in it. I got space to move, and I feel safer now when I ride. :) June 10, 2013
as advertised nothing insanely special about it, just comfortable back armor that fits the jackets it's made for at an acceptable price. June 5, 2013
A definite must, especially at this price point I feel so much safer knowing this has my back and spine protected, but its all mental because I rarely even notice it's there. For the price, it is a definite must. Fits perfectly into my Dainese Rebel jacket. My only complaint is that it adds some extra heat retention on warm days, especially when wearing a backpack. June 3, 2013
Great fit in my avro Fits great in my dainese avro leather jacket, I wear a size 50 and I can barely feel that the back insert is there while riding. The airflow is pretty decent. I hope Ill never be able to attest to its durability though. Overall I'm very pleased, $100 investment isn't bad to insure your spine is protected. June 3, 2013
Good back protection I use this inside my Dainese Aspide Jacket, and it fits just great inside the jacket, leaving me feeling quite protected with it. Just what I needed for my jacket, great complement. May 21, 2013
Well worth the price This product fits perfectly in my shift Diablo jacket, L. I can hardly notice it's there. Although not crash tested it feels well made and sturdy. This product is well worth the price and anything is better then the original foam back protector. May 13, 2013
Very Pleased Done about a month with this in my Chrono Jacket. Covers a good portion of my back with out making me look like a hunch back off the bike. The only time I notice I have it in the jacket is when sitting in a chair with a back, but that's a non issue. Been in the 30-80 degree range, wet and dry and I haven't had any issue with it being to hot or uncomfortable. May 2, 2013
Product delivers what it proposes. It is a good addition to your Dainese jacket that has no protection column. But you have to be aware that there is a total protection as in a full jumpsuit. But I recommend. April 29, 2013

Answer: 
It's up to you! The Shield Air is CE Level 2, so it's more protective. It's also thicker and more bulky (I look like a turtle when I wear it). The Wave G is thinner, less protective, and still looks kinda funky on your back. They're both great products, they just look a little funny. I myself ride with the Forcefield BackPad Insert Pro for Dainese. It's CE Level 2, comfortable, much thinner, and more ergonomic.

I recently bought a Dainese Greyhound Leather Jacket size 48 and want to add some back protection. The review video suggests a G2 for size 50 and above, should I follow the Revzilla review advice and buy a G1, or follow the gender guideline(I'm male) and buy a G2?

Answer: 
The Dainese Wave G Back Protector G1 is made to fit all Women's Dainese jackets, and the G2 will fit all Men's Dainese jackets. This should make it fairly easy to decide, and for you, we would recommend going with the G2!

Answer: 
The G1 measures 16" x 10.5" and the G2 is 17.5" x 10.5" (10.5" is the width at the widest part). Both are about 1" thick, but they have slight conical shape, so that isn't the most reliable measurement.

Answers

Answer: 
The Dainese Wave G Back Protector will work with the Dainese Air-Flux Textile Jacket. All Dainese jackets will accept either the Wave G Back Protector, or the Shield Air G Level 2 Back Protector. Although the Wave is nice, the Shield Air G will offer much greater protection, since it is carrying a CE Level 2 Certification, as opposed to the Wave's Level 1. CE Level 2 Back Protectors are designed to allow no more than 9 kN through to the wearer in the standards test. This value is half the energy allowed by the CE level 1 Armor, at 18 kN. We feel CE Level 2 Back Protectors are the way to go, if you are not a fan of spine modifications.

Answer: 
I am 6ft, I used to use a Wave G2, and now I use a Shield Air G2 Level 2 in my Alien. Its a snug fit with it in there, but once the jacket breaks in a bit, it will feel great. I recommend always having a back protector in there! If you are shorter, like under 5'5" then maybe the G1 I guess? I would have to look at the manual to see the size recommendation again. But I think the G1 is for much shorter people.

Answers

Answer: 
Good question! Basically, what one time use (aka "one and done,") means is that after one major impact the product will not be able to absorb additional energy, thus it will not function properly. Think of a crumple zone in a car. You might also not be able to see the after effect of an impact, however the back protector is no longer usable.

Similar to a helmet, if you crash, you need to purchase a new one. It has crumple zones that will not return to their original shape. It basically sacrifices itself to protect you.

Answer: 
I was told by Dainese that this is a level 1 back protector and the Dainese Shield Air G is a level 2 back protector. I went with the Wave G anyway due to the smaller size and comfort level.
