What are your thoughts on the G-Form PRO-X Knee/Shin guards?
Anybody have them or know anybody with them?
I'm looking to possibly get them because they're lightweight, washable, flexible, and not so damn bulky like other guards.
Also, can I use a knee brace while wearing them?
Thanks for the feedback

I don't know about a knee brace. I guess if it fit over the pads, it would work, but if you sized the pads to go over the brace, the one without the brace would slide down.

They are really nice, but I'm not 100% convinced they are worth the money. The are better than the pro-tec IPS knees I had before, but those were like $20.

So you wouldn't recommend them? My friend's selling a pair for pretty cheap I told him to wait until I get the money. I figured they were a little over priced for what they actually are, but they seem more reasonable then all the other big, bulky shin guards.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Like I said to Illuminati, I have a friend selling a pair for pretty fuckin cheap. I just like the fact that you can rewash them. I had an old pair of Shadow shin guards, and I was always afraid to wash them and after a while they smelt like shit, haha. I mainly just want to know, if my foot slips the pedal and the pedal smashes my shin or knee cap, will it hurt more/less compare to other shin guards? I had minor arthitis in both my knees, so I need the best possible shin/knee guards. Thanks

I have the knee pads and do the job well. I could whack myslef with a hammer and not feel anything...Ive fallen on my knees(on cement) and nothing.

Im actually thinking of picking up the combo due to it being less bulky , quicker and easy to putt on/take instead of dealing strao adjustments and all.

Do wear under jeans and such as rough terrain will rip the padding depending on how you fall

Ive had the knee pads for at least a year or about 2 now and they still have perfect shape and protection

Yeah, I was going to wear jeans over them anyways.
Do you recommend wearing something under the knee/shin guards to avoid skin irritation or does it not matter? Something like this?
They seem slim enough for knee braces to fit over them, so that's good.

You can't really wear anything under them. I tried thermal underwear because it's cold as shit, and they just slid down.

I should add that the protection it pretty good. Not full hard cap good, but good enough. I've crashed in a 7 foot bowl, pretty much from coping to flat, and a lot of shit hurt, but my knees didn't.

Thanks for the review man. I'll keep that in mind. I'm not getting them until about Summer so I don't have to worry about the cold. They seem pretty ideal.
