Re: What Items Are Best For Armor

that's what i think when i see these though, they won't do a damn thing for you. keep your back from getting broke if you flip an endo but it is useless for rash.

I have a Thor suit that held up on one of my wrecks, only downside is you cant wear just the spine

ICON

that thing isn't even a spine protector...its just a piece of plastic....tho ofcourse it better than wearing nothing.

i rock the dianese back protector, ya its a little more uncomfortable, and almost 2x the price of the icon, but if you fall, it will crush itself to take the impact.

aside that.

and i'm surprised no one else said this, wear shinguards! ...especially if you have a 905!
