The POC achieves top results in the impact test. The elasticated waist strap provides good support, but the straps are not stiff enough.

CONCLUSION Level 2; top values in the impact test; the elasticated waist belt provides good support, otherwise the flabby straps and the slightly bulging back system are not quite convincing; the compartment layout is okay; a rain cover is missing; clean workmanship
