Stunts
These tests were performed in collaboration with a stunt team that executed "laydowns" with the airbag jeans several times. A "laydown" involves the rider allowing the motorcycle to lay down on the asphalt while in motion.
This is one of the most challenging situations for the airbag jeans to handle because the rider separates from the motorcycle late, and the airbag must deploy and be fully inflated before the rider hits the ground.
Inflation test
About thirty tests have been conducted on the activation system to ensure that it functions correctly and deploys in the right time before the rider hits the ground.
The most crucial factor in these tests has been that the airbag clothing remains inactive while the person is in the air, then activates in the air and is fully inflated before the person hits the ground. The results have shown that the clothing meets these requirements and functions as intended.
Fall test
The company has conducted two fall tests with the airbag jeans and airbag vest at a speed of 25 km/h. The tests demonstrate that the airbag jeans effectively lift the entire body off the asphalt and creates a protective barrier between the rider and the ground.
One of the positive effects is that the lower legs are lifted at an angle that prevents the knees and legs from coming into contact with the asphalt when rolling around in an accident situation.

This is a peak of performance that only the Cambridge 13595-2 standard recognized by the FIM can measure! High Armalith® technology protects against abrasion over a distance of 56m (183ft).
Its mechanical qualities are equivalent to or superior in all respects to the requirements set for lining up on the starting grid of a moto GP race… plus comfort!
In real accidents and tests, no one felt pain due to the airbag's impact absorption, even at speeds up to 80 km/h on asphalt. The airbag clothing effectively cushions and minimizes impact energy, preventing pain despite the forces involved.
