Demon United Zero PLUS RF D3O® Unisex Ski/Snowboard Padded Vest

Spine-first back padding you can wear under any jacket, all day.

A full-length certified back guard with soft chest and rib cushioning up front — the padding you put on and forget about until the moment it matters.

Features

RZ Labs foam back guard (EN 1621-2 Level 1) — A durable, pliable panel running the full length of your spine, certified to EN 1621-2 Level 1 and engineered to keep absorbing impact across a full season without compressing out.
Recycled D3O® RF foam underlay — Non-Newtonian smart foam under the back zone: pliable while you ride, rate-stiffens on impact, and resets instantly. Built from 100% recycled D3O® Zero material.
Soft air-foam chest and rib padding — Lightweight front cushioning for comfort and coverage, without the bulk of a full impact top.
Ultra-soft, low-profile build — Lightweight and flexible in every direction, designed for all-day under-jacket wear with no visible outline or movement restriction.
Eco-friendly — 100% recycled D3O® Zero foam: the same rate-sensitive performance with a smaller material footprint.

The RZ Labs back guard is a durable, pliable panel EN1621-2 Level 1 — engineered for repeated impact absorption without losing structural integrity across a full season.

The Zero RF Vest isn't a snow-only piece. The ultra-soft, lightweight build breathes well enough for mountain biking, trail riding, and snowsports — any sport where a slam onto your back is a real possibility.

Full torso coverage in a single lightweight layer — flexible rib padding that bends with every turn and landing, and soft chest cushioning for the falls you don't plan. Every angle, every impact, one vest.

All Around Slim Protection

Frequently asked questions

They're built for different levels of protection and different types of riders. The Zero RF Vest is the everyday option — EN1621-2 certified RZ Labs back guard, recycled D3O RF underlay at the spine, and soft air foam at the chest and ribs. It's slim, lightweight, and designed to be worn under any jacket without thinking about it. The back and spine are its priority. The chest and rib padding is comfort cushioning, not CE-certified impact armor. The X V7 Impact Top is the full protection system — six CE EN1621-1 certified D3O® pads covering shoulders, elbows, back, ribs, and abdomen, with ACF compression fit and X-Connect compatibility. If you're riding park, hitting big features, or want certified protection at every upper body zone, the X V7 is the right tool. If you want reliable certified spine coverage in the slimmest, most wearable package, the Zero RF Vest is built for that.

The Zero RF Vest is built for all-season, multi-sport use. The lightweight, moisture-wicking construction handles body temperature well enough for mountain biking, trail riding, and shoulder-season sessions where a full impact top runs too hot. The RZ Labs back guard and D3O RF foam respond identically to impacts regardless of season or surface — a backward slam on a mountain bike trail puts the same demands on your spine as one on a ski slope. Riders use the Zero RF Vest across snowboarding, skiing, MTB, and any discipline where spine protection matters and bulk doesn't work.

Yes — fitting cleanly under a jacket is the entire design brief. The Zero PLUS RF Vest uses an ultra-soft, lightweight construction that sits close to the body without creating visible bulk at the back, shoulders, or chest under outerwear. The vest profile is significantly slimmer than a full impact top, making it the preferred choice for riders who want spine protection without any noticeable change to how their jacket fits or moves. Most riders wear it directly over a base layer under their shell or insulated jacket. Size according to the Demon chart — a correct fit should feel snug but not compressive, with no bunching at the shoulders or waist.
