Knee Pad Recommendations

You should ask Rider, he is an expert in kneepads that can hold up in an alley.

what bout elbows?

I current knee pad that i have is the sessions thermal d30, i think they are very comfortable to wear

I've used the volleyball pads as well as the one's for skateboarding

I rarely fall on my knees?? But then again my toeside turning is like the best part of my snowboarding skills. For my ass I were my football Tailbone pad.

This site has a bunch of good stuff.

I got the RED knee/rail guards. Knee guards are good - hard shell and they strap on (not slip ons). Once you start riding, you don't really notice them much, unless its a warm day, then they can get pretty hot. They don't inhibit movement at all. The rail guards are a bit sketchy - don't really fit nicely w/ the knee guards, and they tend to shift.

I could use some that don't put pressure on all the tendons in the back of your leg.

Knee pads are a great investment. Got mine from the nike store and they are wonderful. No more bruised knees. Also thinking about getting some hip pads as well. I dont wanna break my tail bone!

Maybe wrist or tail bone pads but unless you gunna be taking huge halfpipe slams the worst your gunna get are brused knees. Anyways it teaches you not to fall over again. Quit whinning and go board.

Don't know that I've seen knee pads on Sierra actually, but doesn't look like they have any right now anyway.  I also like using volleyball knee pads (kind of funny since I never wore knee pads when actually playing volleyball competitively all those years, but got some for snowboarding), and have an old pair of pants that actually have built-in/removable knee pads.  The pads in the pants are pretty thin and don't offer that much cushioning on a fall, but they're great as padding/insulation if you're kneeling in the snow a lot.  I don't know how easy/difficult it is to find pants with the built-in knee pads these days, but I have a friend that sewed knee pad pockets into a pair of pants and cut up some football pads to slip into them.

Brilliant idea about putting them under thermals. I'm nursing an enormous knee bruise from falling on concrete-like snow last weekend and need some sort of gear to help protect my knee this weekend. I'm going to try under my thermals so hopefully I can still move easily.
