Demon United X V7 D3O® A.I. Savage Ltd. Impact Padded Shorts| Snowboard

The full X V7 padding system in a limited-edition Savage print — unisex fit.

A D3O® impact pad shields your tailbone and buttocks while Plush pads cushion your hips and thighs — with a fit system you can dial in to the millimeter. From your first park lap to your ten-thousandth, these are the shorts for when you're done compromising.

Features

D3O® + Plush padding — A D3O® impact pad shields the tailbone and buttocks, with Plush pads cushioning the hips and thighs. The upgraded T6 tailbone pad adds a flex shell to help deflect blows.
A.I. Plush Padding™ (Air Pad Integrated) — Zone-mapped air-channel padding varies softness and airflow as you flex, compress, and absorb impact, so it feels like part of you rather than armor strapped on.
T.P.S. V2 (Total Padding System) — An industry-first modular insert with 2 inches of multi-directional adjustability; slide and lock your coverage exactly where your body and riding style want it.
C.B.I.S. (Cross-Belt Integration System) — Dual overlapping tension straps lock the waist and stop the pad array from sagging or rotating, so your padding stays put from first run to last — without cutting off circulation.
X-Connect compatible — Links directly to a Demon impact top to close the lower-to-upper-body gap and add a low lumbar pad. Cross-compatible with Demon V4–V7 systems.
All-day wearability — Ventilated Lycra/mesh blend is lightweight, moisture-wicking, and low-profile enough to layer cleanly under snow, ski, or MTB pants without bulk.

Specs

T6 pad on the tailbone offers an additional flex shell helping to deflect blows.
Three integrated D3O® impact pads — tailbone and buttocks + Plush pads for hips, and thighs
Ventilated Lycra/mesh construction
Compatible with Demon V4, V5, V6, and V7 systems
Included black foam insert is optional extra cushioning, not structural — many riders remove it for a lower-profile fit. The black T.P.S. insert is the primary adjustable element.

Built for riders taking big hits — park, freeride, all-mountain, and technical MTB. If you rarely fall hard, our Zero RF D3O line covers daily riding at a lower price.

3 X D3O® Impact Pads

Including the D3O® + A.I. Independent smart-material pads across tailbone and buttocks; soft during riding, hardens instantly on impact, recovers immediately.

A.I. Plush Padding™

Zone-mapped, air-integrated pad architecture that adapts to movement for superior comfort and impact absorption.

Cross-Belt Secure

(C.B.I.S.) — Dual overlapping tension straps lock padding in place through drops, crashes, and full resort days without excessive compression.

Three integrated D3O® impact pads, a CE EN 1621-1 certified hip pad covers the tailbone, Demon's new A.I. (Air Pad Integrated) Plush Padding™ system, and an industry-first T.P.S. (Total Padding System V2) that lets you dial in your fit.

X-Connect Technology links the X V7 shorts directly to your X impact top, closing the gap between lower and upper body protection and adding a low lumbar pad for extended spine coverage. This is protection architecture, not just padding.

The X V7 is built for riders who take big hits: freeride and all-mountain snowboarders on hardpack and ice; mountain bikers on technical descents; and anyone who has taken one bad slam and decided it will never happen unprotected again.

Frequently asked questions

The X V7 introduces three key upgrades over the V6: the new A.I. Plush Padding™ system (zone-mapped, air-integrated comfort architecture), the T.P.S. V2 (2-inch multi-directional adjustable pad insert for custom fit), and the C.B.I.S. Cross-Belt Integration System (dual straps that prevent pad migration and sagging). The X V7 retains full X-Connect compatibility and cross-generation support for V4–V7 systems.

C.B.I.S. is Demon's dual overlapping tension strap system that stabilizes the waist and locks the entire pad array in position during riding. Standard impact shorts rely on a single elastic waistband that can sag or rotate during aggressive movements and falls. C.B.I.S. distributes tension across two overlapping straps, preventing shifting without over-compressing the waist. The result is padding that stays exactly where you set it through drops, crash landings, and a full day of hard riding.

The T.P.S. V2 is a removable black foam pad insert built into the shorts that slides 2 inches in any direction to let you position your primary protection zone exactly where your body needs it. To adjust: remove the outer shorts layer to access the insert, slide it to your preferred position, and secure. Many riders position it slightly higher for tailbone-first falls, or lower for heavy butt landings. The included black insert is a separate optional comfort layer — most serious riders remove it for a lower-profile fit. The black TPS insert provides an additional layer of GAP protection.

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.

LARGE V7 Waist 32-34 Inches / No Thanks

Thanks for fixing sending the pants. The knee pads have been sent back by US mail.

LARGE V7 Waist 32-34 Inches / Yes (SUSPENDERS)

Fast shipping. Product arrived and Quality is much better than I expected. I am glad I went out and got these shorts they look like they will do the trick for me. thanks!

MEDIUM V7 Waist 30-31 Inches / No Thanks

Okay they are perfect in terms of protection but it does feel like I have a bbl. They aren’t bulky tho so I can still get up easily and have tons of motion to get on tubes or do whatever!

MEDIUM V7 Waist 30-31 Inches / Yes (SUSPENDERS)

Great! Super comfortable, perfect fit, really great protective coverage. Hit 64.1mph on my snowboard and felt safe!

XLARGE V6 Waist 35-37 Inches / Yes (SUSPENDERS)

It's my first season snowboarding and early on in the season I hit a large jump on accident, feet flew out from under my and I landed straight on my tailbone from probably 6' in the air and going at least 20 mph. Completely annihilated my tailbone without breaking it. I bought these that same day and have been wearing them about two months now while I learn freestyle stuff (only jumps and boxes for now). I've taken some pretty hard slams while wearing the shorts, even yesterday I slammed straight to my butt after hitting a rainbow box completely wrong at Bear. The shorts absorb basically all of the impact. You still feel the slam but it's only to the point where you just get back up and ride away. The hardest I've slammed with these was at mammoth on the 8' half pipe straight heel edge catch to my butt on ice and I felt that one a bit but not that crazy tailbone pain you get without padding. Buy these and save your body, they seriously work. My only regret is that I didn't buy the pants initially because they have the knee pads. I might get those next season. Demon really needs to keep up with stock though. Missed out on quite a few purchases from friends and family because size wasn't in stock, not sure of supply chain issues though. Great shorts!
