Hey Guys

I like to really throw my sled around and in the process i get pretty banged up mostly my knees and shins from hopping from side to side. Ive been thinking about getting some padding. Do any of you guys use anything that works real well. I dont want to get those pads for my sled im thinking more of something like this.

Crash Pads Thermal Long Underwear with pads - 2200 | www.crash-pads.com




I like this more seeing how my shin was shredded last year and i didnt realize how bad till i got back to the cabin.

Any better ideas?

Cheers

I tried a padded short and could not stand them I also tried a few different knee/shin guards and finally found a pair I liked. THOR static knee guard.
could not even tell I was wearing them. I would imagine a lot cheaper then those fancy looking pants that in my opinion won't offer you much protection knee pad2.jpg
