Riding Gear Question!

  In April of 2003 I herniated the disc between c5-c6 while riding. This resulted in weakness, numbness in my Lt. shoulder/ arm/ hand, and several trips to a Neuo sugeon. I did not have surgery and was not able to ride most of the summer - in order to let it heal - so I would'nt have to have surgery.
Long story short - I'm 100% now.    LET IT HEAL, so you don't risk nerve damage.
 
  I wear an EVS RC-1. Yes its thicker but I wanted the support. You will be amazed how well it works. It did take a while to get used to it but like a helmet I would not ride without it now. Especially if you jump high or just go balls out down desert roads.

Everyone is different so try both on and pick one.

Take care hope this helps.
Dan
