Fit and use

The protector sits close to the torso and moves with the driver during long sessions. Adjustable straps let the user tighten the fit over a kart suit so the shell stays in place through cornering loads and track vibrations. Its ergonomic shape conforms to the torso while secure shoulder and side straps keep the protector firmly in place under any kart suit. The design allows full mobility and comfort in high performance karting without restricting movement.

The OMP KS Body Rib Protector is ergonomically designed to provide maximum protection to the ribs and back. It offers support and protection with adjustable straps to improve comfort fitting and is compatible with most kart suits and seats for universal usability in club and track day environments.
