Ski Back Protector: Ortema ORTHO-MAX Light
Today, a high-quality ski back protector must do more than just offer protection. It must fit snugly against the body, allow maximum freedom of movement, and be barely noticeable even during long training days. This is precisely what the Ortema ORTHO-MAX Light was developed for. It combines a certified back protector with an ultra-light carrying structure and is aimed at ambitious skiers and racers who rely on reliable protection without wanting to sacrifice comfort. Compared to simple back protectors, the ORTHO-MAX Light convinces with its ergonomic fit, low weight, and high-quality craftsmanship – characteristics that make all the difference in racing.
Ski Back Protector for Maximum Freedom of Movement

Thanks to the lightweight carrying structure, the protector can be easily worn under a race suit or ski jacket. At the same time, the breathable material ensures that a comfortable body climate is maintained even during intensive training sessions.
