Your ribs are the zone most impact tops leave exposed. One slam on a metal box, a tree, or a flat landing changes that equation fast. The Ghost Rib wraps that gap with sandwiched Dura Foam and a hard outer shell — built to take the hit.
The Ghost Rib conforms to your torso without straps that dig in or shells that crack mobility. Wear it under any jacket, over any base layer. On snow, on dirt, wherever your midsection is the first thing to land.
Pair it with the Demon X V7 Impact Top for spine-to-stomach torso coverage, or add the Ghost Chest Protector for a full front-and-back shield. Every zone closed. No gaps.
How to wear with X V7 Top.
Frequently asked questions
What is X-Connect Technology?
X-Connect is Demon's proprietary connection system that physically links compatible Demon impact tops and bottoms, closing the gap between upper and lower body protection at the mid-section. Without X-Connect, there's typically an unprotected zone between where an impact top ends and shorts begin — exactly where a fall on a rail or box can catch you. X-Connect eliminates that gap and adds a low lumbar pad for extended lower spine coverage. It's compatible with Demon V4, V5, V6, and V7 impact tops.
What is the Ghost Rib Protector and do I need it?
The Demon Ghost Rib Protector is an optional add-on that wraps from the spine to the stomach with high-density Dura Foam and a hard deflection shell, providing full torso protection between your back pad and your front. The V7 top protects the shoulders, elbows, back, ribs, and abdomen well on its own — but the Ghost Rib is for riders who want complete cocoon-level coverage with no gaps. It's particularly valuable for park riders taking rib-catching slams on boxes, freeride skiers charging consequences terrain, and anyone who has previously broken or bruised ribs and wants maximum torso defense.
