Also, I think you should ask yourself "If this piece of foam passes "the" test, how far does that test go, and would it actually save my back from damage"
The fact that it "passes" a test doesn't mean that it's going to do much to save your spine in an off; all it says is that it offers a certain level of protection (maybe better than having nothing at all).
I for one won't go for a serious ride without my back protector, unless I'm wearing my Sidi textile jacket, that has a "proper" protector fixed into the lining.
Like Mark says, it's your back....
