    It's their "core saver" vest:

    They also have a what seems to be, more durable model with shoulder caps and a thicker/bigger spine pannel:

    You could try some of the stuff here:
    Impact Clothing from Backcountry.com
    It's all meant for snowboarding, so it all has to fit under clothing.

    As for collar bones, very hard to protect. I know MXers who have broken their collarbones even with good protection. I think its a really hard bone to protec and there is so much movement in this area.

    However I liked the look of that 661.

    I broke my collarbone in 3 paces last year DHing. Yeasterday I had the plate and 8 screws out. Now I have to be carefull as the bone is like swiss cheese with the screw holes!



    Nice hardware.....

    Oh yeah, Allways wear a back protector when Dh'ing

    You are a very lucky guy not to be paralysed after that. Hope you heal well.
