It was okay while riding upright and normal, but when I tucked, wind would catch the shoulders and the part between the shoulder padding and my neckline would flap around. It was fucking with my helmet, too. Hauling ass into a corner and my helmet is shaking around, fucking with my eyeball focus. Had to get rid of it. Plus it didn't even have a liner. My new one has a liner and a speed hump. I love, love, love my Laguna Seca Dainese 1-piece, but fuck that Laguna Seca jacket.
