MX Sports Presents Shock Doctor Eject Helmet System

Shock Doctor, Inc.’s Eject Helmet Removal System is now used by MX Sports for improving safety in amateur racing at all regional qualifying and championship events for the AMA Air Nautiques Amateur National Motocross Championships.

“MX Sports is excited to welcome Shock Doctor and the Eject System to the Loretta Lynn family,”
said Tim Cotter, director of MX Sports. “This forward-thinking company will bring new ideas and innovations to our sport that will not only increase the enjoyment of the sport, but above all, the safety of our riders.”

The Eject System provides emergency neck and spine protection after a motorsport crash and is currently used by drivers and riders in major racing segments. The system, which is required in the professional Indy Racing League, uses a tiny plastic bladder and inflation device and can be installed in any helmet.

“The Eject Helmet Removal System is a technology advancement that takes safety to the next level in motocross, much like the introduction of neck braces to the sport in recent years,”
said Bill Best, vice president of product development for Shock Doctor.

“Eject’s a safety innovation that helps EMTs better assist a crash victim and reduces the risk of further neck and spine injuries. It has proven itself at the professional level, and it’s important to provide the same safety benefits to all levels of amateur motocross. MX Sports' endorsement of Eject use and their extensive regional qualifying program, will introduce Eject to riders and their families throughout the country.”

The Shock Doctor Eject Helmet Removal System is safer than the traditional method of pulling the helmet off. This way, further injuries caused by putting substantial strain on the neck and spine are eliminated.
