It's never a bad idea to have some protection on the slopes, especially if you're one of those crazy-asses that think they're invincible once they set foot on the powder. POC's lightweight Spine body armor ($160) protects your back from any mishaps you might make. The Cervical ($40) and Coccyx ($40) add-ons insure that the upper part of the spine, including vertebrae C1 to C7, as well as the lowest part of your spine, the caudal region, are safe from impact.
