Title: Calf pads for tall bockers
Post by: Jason on April 02, 2007, 09:32:54 PM
Has anyone else found the calf pads bruise the back of your legs

I am 6ft 3 and because I ride horses my calfs are over developed also the pit dirt knee pads push me further back (they are really comfortable so I want to keep using them)

So for an adjustable onesize fits all I'm a real night mare

Made these and all the pain has gone they are so comfy

Hmmm, Nice mod!
I don't have this probably as i have very skinning lower legs, but im sure this may come in handy for people with bigger legs.

Wow!
I'm 6'3 also and ive only had mine less than a day... and already i'm feeling the burn at the back of my legs...
The straps and the kneeguard thingy after a while just rubs and rubs and... owee...
Gonna look into mods and stuff - this was a great help, thanks dude.

Thanks for the nice word Naz

I have found that since I have made the cuffs I don't need the pads anymore as the cuffs move your legs forward so they don't rub anymore

Has for the hoop I'd like bigger ones too ?
Are all hoops the same size I have the 115's do people on 60's have the same size calfs ... I don't think so !!  :-\

Nice one I eventually took the pads off when I made some cuffs because I had the same problem (I could'nt get my size 13 feet through the hoops) the cuffs let you move your shin forward so your calfs don't rub

Try this http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=586.0 and you'll never look back they are easy to put on and so comfy
