I don't need codpiece protection

I got these ones thru the post today:

They have velcro on the inside of the waistband which is scratchy and needs to be removed but other than that the tailbone protection is nicely padded and sits in the right place, and they'll definitely go under baggy combats or boarding trews with no worries of "fat arse" comments

Thats Great!! Glad they fit well and dont make you look like you have a "fat arse". Going to the meet then?

bit late for this, glad you got some.
differently i would have had a look on www.chainreactioncycles.com, they have a load of safety gear different for "people who break easily" was it?

Yep, I bust my clavicle skating backwards in an ice hockey match, it was a real gentle fall but my arm curled underneath me and the clavicle took the brunt and popped - OUCH! I guess there's no padding that can stop that happening again if I fell on bocks

Gixer · « **Reply #30 on:** January 29, 2008, 07:07:02 PM »

It's not *really* armour you know

Wish it was, but it's just vacformed ABS

Wait till you're backstage at a big Star Wars event and you witness Vader sitting with his lid off scoffing a donut, Boba Fett having a fag outside, and a Stormtrooper repairing his calf armour with gaffer tape.....my illusions were shatted long ago

Storm Troopers are cool, just imagine darth vader dropping one, and the smell getting stuck in his costume, lol

Did anyone ever see morons from outa space where Mel sneezes in a space suit

Spud · « **Reply #39 on:** January 29, 2008, 09:25:16 PM »

Nope but that quote made me laugh

Back on topic again

My wrist guards arrived today but cos I have extremely skinny wrists and slim hands, they don't really "sandwich" my hand too firmly

If I wore gloves underneath to pad them out a bit would that work?

Spud · « **Reply #41 on:** January 30, 2008, 04:24:05 PM »

On topic? wrist gaurds -impacts shorts hehe. I think farts i more relivent

Gixer · « **Reply #42 on:** January 30, 2008, 04:25:21 PM »

General "padding talk" I meant

Spud · « **Reply #43 on:** January 30, 2008, 04:25:53 PM »

A serious reply

Here is a topic about the wrist gaurds and some peoples solutions (i think)

Nero · « **Reply #44 on:** January 30, 2008, 04:26:09 PM »

should do, it will stop them grazes to the outside of the hand a bit.
my wrist gueards arnet all that secure in all honesty, but when i did fall with them on they skidded away as i put preasure on, so i would slide rather than breaking, but im one of those stair diving hard to brake types

DK did something to make his smaller. You should ask him about it
