Protective pads
« on: November 25, 2006, 09:53:04 PM »
I am sure everyone on this forum will agree with me when i say
Pads are the most important things u could buy
if you would like a link to one website that has pads here it is
http://www.ridethehill.com/acatalog/Tri_Paks.html or alternatively go on google or ebay and search for pads.
My pads were anvil pro tri pak
and they are well worth the £25


check out http://www.swebounce.com/ for some great videos of  Mattias Lindström and more great info.... go check t out now !!!

I'm a bit stupid not to wear pads, but luckily I won a set in the December photo comp  ;D, not that I've had any bails that really hurt me enough to decide to wear pads. I messed up my shoulder once, but it sorta felt ok after about a week. I tend to injure everything that pads can't protect lol! Ironic eh? So I don't bother with pads at the moment. However, I strongly recommend them, and I'm a bit of an idiot not wearing them. I have to say, I'm somewhat worried about the fragileness of my wrists!!!! All I wear is my minimoto gloves, to stop grazing on my hands and wrists.
I will wear them soon though! When my new ones arrive ;D

wrsit-guards are a must. Plus they are the least intrusive pads you can wear (like they dont stick out too much or restrict your movement in anyway).

Yeah wrist guards seem like the ones you really should be wearing on PJs, your wrists are ever so fragile when landed on from 8 feet up...! I'll buy some very soon, not that I can PJ much in this weather >:(!!

Hi

On  www.Pro-Jump.co.uk the price of £24.99 includes a set of elbow pads too. I'll see if I can convince 'the powers that be' to lower the price of the set for you guys.

In the meantime if you would like to purchase the knee pads you can do so from the Ghostbikes.com website through the link above.

Its often that injures happen at unexpected moments. Simple trips mis judged jumps when 1 isnt prepaired to land/fall  right. If doing flips jumps 1 is prepaired for failure and more likely to land safly --- if you follow.
