The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is pleased to announce Point Two Air Vests is now a Silver Level sponsor at the 2016 Nutrena USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Land Rover (AEC). They generously agreed to award ProAir Jackets to the winning riders of each AEC division as well as riders who come closest to the optimum time in the 4 Amateur divisions. In addition, Point Two has signed on as a Contributing Level Sponsor of the 2016 USEA Annual Meeting and Convention which will be held December 7-11, 2016 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

“Point Two is dedicated to your safety. Maintenance of any product is so important and your safety is number one with us,” said Lee Middleton, CEO of Point Two Air Vest USA. “Point Two is happy to announce we are including a 6-year maintenance plan for every Air Jacket sold through the month of September.” To receive the 6-year free maintenance plan, customers must buy one canister at the time of service. Additional canisters can be purchased at a 50% discount. Shipping costs do apply.

Point Two has always been the innovator in the equestrian market and they continue to provide the best product and service in the industry. The vests are available in a wide range of sizes and colors and are re-usable, serviceable and made from tough, wipe-clean fabric. Point Two Air Bag Systems come with a lifetime warranty.

“At the USEA we take the safety of our riders very seriously. Having a partner like Point Two Air Vests continue to support eventing and more specifically the AEC is important to us. A majority of this sponsorship is made up of air vests that will be awarded to the competitors at the AEC and we thank Point Two sincerely for their commitment to the safety of our members,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk.

About Point Two

Point Two was established in the summer of 2008, it is owned and staffed by riders who feel passionate about providing revolutionary levels of safety to the equestrian world. Point Two was based on air vest technology originally available in the motorcycling industry. Adding equestrian expertise to the successful design resulted in the first version of popular ProAir vest in 2009. Over the past two years, the ProAir vest has evolved to inflate even faster and provide the rider with higher levels of comfort, as well as new colors, designs and sizes. Point Two is continually looking for new and improved ways to help protect all horse riders and carriage drivers, regardless of their discipline or ability, whether in competition or hacking and schooling at home.
