- CRASH PAD)It's Simple. To get a compression
fracture (broken back) in a crash, the spine is compressed. That happens
when one end is held firm (against your rigid seat bottom) and force is
applied to the other end ( by the momentum of the weight of your body, head
and helmet). The force is created when the seat suddenly stops and that can
happen at any time during a crash, as well as in a frame bottom impact. A
good containment seat protects against other injuries but holds the spine in
such good alignment that Impacts at an angle, now create vertical down
movement in the seat that compresses you and can break vertebrae. The CRASH
PAD has material that tested best for the US Military to Reduce Spinal
Impact Forces. Put a CRASH PAD or the CRASH PAD material under your butt
