mattlucas 0 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Any Skiers out there ever consider wearing body armour. Comtimplating shoulder pads for the tight trees. Also knee pads for bashing sasa grass. Not American football pads but mountain biking pads. Link to post Share on other sites
Teledude 0 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Always wear knee pads after a close brush with a decapitating stump. Thinking about hip and ass pads as well but mostly for area skiing and sitting on my ass on the chairs. Link to post Share on other sites

mattlucas 0 Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 Probably ditch the back part. Mainly just want the shoulder and arm protection. Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 0 Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 check out www.ebsmission.co.jp for more boarder oriented protection but a really good range of reasonably priced stuff. The stuff in the picture is just road racing armor, not specifically designed for snow sport Link to post Share on other sites
