what pads are people using?
« on: February 11, 2006, 05:17 PM »
Just got some 661 4x4 shin and knee pads ready for epic meet. they seem a bit clumpy, but i am likely to be falling off my bike a few times. thinking of getting the 2x4 elbow and forearm pads or maybe the dj pads.
what does anybody else use?

six six one dj knees and eggie shin guards, tsg force elbows.

will be changing to tsg force knee pro pads, as they look a bit beefier than the djs i got.
i would recommend a knee pad with a rector type cap, and the more padding the better.

and as a foot note, two bob rob found an excellent site for pads, and forwarded it on to shelly as she wanted to get me my elbow pads for christmas....real good service from these people, but will say they are a skate company....

I use ProDesigned knee and elbow pads.   :daumenhoch:   In my opinion, by far the best pads out there - as well as the most expensive... :o

They are huge though, and not everyone likes that big bulky feel, but I need 'em as I do spend a fair amount of time hitting the eject button  ;D

They quite often pop up on ebay I'm told, and always seem to go cheap when they do  ;)

Fox, Rector, TSG (the dearer ones) Smith and the larger 661 stuff is all pretty decent  :)
