Here's something I've never seen before. Park riders may find this very useful.

That definitely looks cool but I just don't like the idea of needing to make room for one more specialized piece of gear (or so my wife tells me...) :D

If I ever get to where I need that kind of protection on the snow, I'll probably end up "repurposing" some of my mountain biking gear like my Rockgardn Flak Jacket (http://www.rockgardn.com/items/body-armor/flak-jacket-flak-jacket-detail.htm?1=1&menu=1) ...

all of those look very sick
but bulky at the same time.

i wear skeletool gears without shoulder pad. with shoulder pad it is too bulky.
these gears are pretty awesome too.
but..
i am not saying they are not bulky.

all the gears that have good pads on are bulky.

Hey now, a lot of the time it is ice and not snow. Another part of the time it is metal lol (rails). and you can be going like 50 mph flying thru the air so I don't think its too bad ^^

Skeletools stuff is great. Love it, love it, love it.
