i have recently ( yesterday) completely ripped my shins to pieces. i was jumping around down by the shops, as there are alot of steps and things there to clear. cleared a nice 11 set, and after i landed, quickly swerved to avoid a bollard, slip'ed the pedal adn obliterated my shins. hobled up too boots to see what i could buy to ease the bleeding and clear up the blood and things. whilst i was looking round i felt realy faint so lead down in the middle of boots like a complete tw@ ! then the manager helped me round the back were they prescribe all of the presciptions adn cleaned me up all for a hefty fee of nothing.!!!
ok besides the point of that, what are the best shin and knee pads too get ? i do a bit of everything, street jumps, dirt jumps etc.
al recomendations are aprecitated no more than £40 as im officialy skint (sorry about the bad spelling and grammar :) )
I use neoprene ones - they don't slow me down too much and keep the DMR pins at bay. Very hot and sweaty though. Steps were designed to be walked down, that's what I do.
