I have a set of Smith Kneepads size L/XL that I'll hook you up with at a good price. They were worn for one short vert session-three kneeslides...?!
send PM if interested |

PAINCHEATERS for the knees, PDs for the elbows.
Next question. |

Smith Scabs Kneepads with horseshoe knee gaskets, Scabs elbow pads and Scabs helmet. Awesome -- can't go wrong with that. It's my opinion that Scabs protect your kneecaps from flattening better than any other pad out there -- even moreso with the horseshoe knee gasket. And they slide like a motherf*ker!
I ate shit bad when I hit some water at Indian School ditch at speed. F**king hucked me. I was up and skating shortly thereafter. If that's not THE test, I don't know what is. |

| If I'm going to wear a knee pad, it's Pain Cheaters, no question. I don't normally wear elbows but the Smith Scabs have served me well in that department. |

| Pain Cheater knee pads and Pro Designed elbow pads. The Pain Cheaters are definitely worth the extra dough and aren't as bulky as the PDs. I wore PD knee pads for years and they served me well so I don't have anything bad to say about them, but the Pain Cheaters just took it to the next level. |

| I use PDs for everything. I've snapped wristguards of other brands, and bashed my knees/elbows through other pads too. I.e. I'm willing to trade bulkiness of PDs and more money for pain-free joints. Don't machine dry those pads, esp the wrist guards... they'll chew up EVERYTHING. |

I like scabs with recaps for knees, pd for wrists(these are absolutely the best!), anything bigger than a protec is good for elbows  |
