I've seen air vests for horseback riding as well. I wonder how horseback riding helmets compare to bicycle helmets.

Although they aren't designed for impact mitigation, there are also airbag vests for snowboarders and skiers in case they get caught in an avalanche. The vest inflates large enough and helps you "float" to the top of the snow wave that engulfs you.
