Merlyn, I have noticed you seem to mention these a lot and apparently cant go wrong with them..

I live in the UK and can only get them imported or sent over from ebay - America.

Dont suppose you know any other makes that do things like these? As i hate wristguards also Razz

Thx

QPQ.

I'll post picture. You'll see .. they're not nearly as clunky as traditional wristguards.

I like them because like Heelys, they're low profile and more convenient.

Let me check .. there was one other manufacture .. Roce .. or Boce or something ..

But I don't know if its any easier to get in UK.

Salomon still makes them .. but just not the model that I have. Thye have an updated one .. that I haven't tried before.

These are the ones I have. Once I hit it so hard that the gel pack exploded (literally) and shot gel everywhere. I felt the blow, but my hand and wrists were 100% fine. Oh - and you can see I'm wearing them in my avatar.




This is was the next style .. I 've tried these, but I wasn't crazy about it. I didn't like the way it came past the hand on the pinky side.



This is their newest version. I haven't tried it. And since I've stocked up on like .. 10 of my old style - I won't be trying it soon. If anyone tries it, please LMK how it is!
