Kneepads

[Warwyck]

Hey guys the ground on the field I practice at is not the best and the volleyball kneepads I bought tend to slide down. Could someone suggest me something better?

I don't use knee pads, but i have heard the gel shock ones are the best for not sliding around on yer legs and that. I don't know where to get them though.

I have an older/thicker/better pair similar to these: http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R ... ogId=10053

I wear them under my greaves and they seem to work well to keep my knees from being bashed up, as well as helping keep my kneecaps in place.

Try a different size of kneepads maybe? I don't have problems with my volleyball kneepads.

If you're a bigger guy, the volleyball kneepads might not work the best in teh world. See if you can find some wrestling kneepads. Everyone I know that uses them loves them.

[Aimish]

Yeah, wrestling kneepads are designed not to slide off your knee. They would be completely worthless in the sport otherwise.

Ill try the wrestling knee pads the look pretty good I think im going to get these. I'll just have to make sure i get the right size.

You may be interested in looking into a pair of paintball kneepads.
I have a pair of proto kneepads that i've used for two years that are pretty freaking sweet. Can be a little expensive if you dont have a local shop.
Here's a link to a large selection of them.

Why the **** does someone need a .50 cal paintball gun?

Use winingas on your lower legs and they help hold the kneepads up while making your garb silhouette more period-correct for most of the medieval time period.

gel wrestling kneepads under your pants, plus greaves. best knee protection ever.
