WhizRider is extremely easy to use and install. By combining the harness system into a vest, the portable car seat takes less than 20 seconds to install: 10 seconds to put it on and another 10 seconds to secure your child within the vehicle. As a result, you can get situated quickly and easily, which is especially important when using public transportation, such as a cab or rideshare service. Your kids will also love the ability to easily secure themselves when riding with family or friends.
The WhizRider harness system anchors the seat belt of the car into optimal position on the shoulder and the lap to prevent serious injury. The upper clip holds the shoulder belt down and in the proper place to reduce the risk of injury to the neck or face. The leg loops, inspired by rock climbing gear, prevent the child from moving out of the seat and sliding underneath the lap belt, preventing submarining, which is a common issue with booster seats. This eliminates the risk of injury to the abdominal organs and genitals.

Developed based on the latest information from the biomechanics and accident research fields, WhizRider meets and exceeds the requirements of the US Federal Regulation Standard FMVSS 213 for Child Restraint Systems and FMVSS 302 for Flammability of Interior Materials.
The US standards are some of the highest requirements in the world and the most performance oriented. As such, we have continuously evaluated every component of WhizRider to ensure it is best-in-class and meets all safety, sustainability, and ethical standards. WhizRider contains no harmful substances and is recognized as a Climate Neutral Product.
WhizRider is a harness system that is approved for use throughout the United States. We are currently working to obtain approval for other regulated countries and regions in the world. If you are planning to use your WhizRider outside of the US, please check the local regulations. For a list of worldwide regulations regarding child restraint systems, please refer to The World Health Organization (WHO).
Certain countries have less intensive or no required child safety requirements, including:
Asia (Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam etc.)
South Asia (India, Sri Lanka etc.)
Latin America (Argentina, Chile, Columbia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru etc.)
As new forms of transportation including car-riding, ride sharing, and public transportation develop in these areas, they will also bring with them the need for new regulations. Please refer to these countries’ individual child safety regulations for the most up-to-date and accurate information.
