Gasmantle Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Well after now having my EUC for about 6 weeks and suffered a few falls in the learning process I finally decided to give in and buy some protective gear, to be honest I've put off buying any as I kinda think all the hassle kills the freedom of riding a little. I know it's silly to ride without protection but until now its been a risk I've been prepared to take, I've been wanting to increase my riding speed a bit and the only way realistically to do that is get myself some armour. Anyway, to get to the point I stumbled across these in Chav Direct Sports Direct yesterday only a tenner and hardly pro quality but for the price these seem fine, they are only a kind of moulded slightly flexible plastic but are surprisingly strong and also comfortable when worn. The slight down side is the knee guards have to be pulled on but they do fit under jeans. https://www.sportsdirect.com/no-fear-skate-protection-3-pack-752040?colcode=75204003 If anyone else out there is looking for some cheap and cheerful protection these have to be worth a look at for £10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
