im new.. bout 2 weeks.. and im kindof a heavy guy.. abou 250 and only 5'7. but i still have awsome agility and speed.. but my knees dont like me much.. so ive been looking on the internet for a good set of knee pads.. now 1 thing is that i have a hard time keeping my knee pads were they need to be.. so.. ive been looking into the raven knee/shen guards to prevent the knee pad from riding around on my knee..

so as we speak.. im at work with a all bandiged up knee.. and im not going to stop paintball.. omg is it cool.. screw video games.. im in oregon.. and its like paintball everywere.. and i just tryed it.. and now im hooked.. hope you guys help me up with some good tips.. gatta start cheap.. but ill always come here first before i get something.
also.. do they have n e thing to protect your upper arms..?.. there killin me..lol

i would say, just wear knee pads if you must and stop being a whimp.

sry its harsh but true.

Jubjub · March 26th, 06:57 PM

knee pads specifically designed for paintball shouldnt slide around assuming you have the right size. you might also invest in some paintball pants, such as '05 proto pants, with padding in the knees and crotch area. the pants wont protect your knees anywhere near as much as actual knee pads, but the crotch padding will allow you to make it through the day without having to wear a cup

Jubjub · March 26th, 07:07 PM

thnx dude.. im getting pants already.. and it has crotch paddin.. i need to check what kind they were.. i forgot.. there in the mail.. i just need to order soon because im going out again this friday.. man.. it was stupid.. im mostly being a baby about my arms because my left arm is 1 big bruse.. because a guy was cheating and has his valocity at max.. he was kicked out for good and he almost got the cops called on him.. i dunno i think hes done it before.. the guys that ran the place were pissed..
