I have the same D30 pants and still manage to fracture my coxis. IMO not the best design because your tail bone can't take a full body weight impact and a small D30 pad on the tail only pushes it in more. It needs padding on the sides (cheeks) so the tail so is tucked in.

Hey Mitch. I loved the video and it was incredibly useful for what to expect since I just got this board during the off season. Side not: I'm getting ready to launch my own snowboarding vlog channel later this year so if you're ever in Denver and want someone to ride and film with. Feel free to shoot me a message

Wrist guards will not stop your wrist from breaking. My wife was wearing some really solid ones and still broke her wrist on a cat track traverse.

If you're learning this all makes sense (albeit a little expensive). Especially the butt pads. Wristguards are the one thing I'd keep using regardless of skill level (and a helmet of course) While years of boarding have trained me not to put my hands out, you never know. Not to say you're not going to fall or get injured even if you're an experienced boarder but the additional weight and the decrease in mobility killed the whole armor thing for me when riding (especially kneepads and chest protectors). At some point you'll be good enough that you're not falling all the time and you're not sitting in snow that you can 'grow out' of most of the armor. Just my 2 cents after 35+ years of riding snowboards in Tahoe.

Definitely get wrist guards as a minimum. Broke my wrist first time trying snowboarding. The pain isn’t the problem, don’t really worry about that. It’s the medical costs from the surgery that was painful, and the inconvenience of working one handed for awhile.

I hope this is a late april fool video, otherwise this is the biggest bs I've seen in a while. You can let your shoes resole for around 40$ before they are worn completly through and get a new life out of your shoe without compromising performance. Amd when you actuakly want to climb with slippery glue tips then don't waste 200$ for Solutions anyway ;)
@PankakeFFS

At this point just wear sneakers as you aren't getting any benefit from wearing climbing shoes with no climbing rubber making contact with the footholds. Also if you don't climb outside and are mainly jumping about on big footholds, $200 shoes are pretty useless, just grab some madrocks or entry-level evolvs.

Is it grippy standing on the edge with glued part ? Because I tried it with shoegoo (forming it with ice cube), but it was not grippy at all, in fact - very slippery like hard plastic.

If I run my hand across my glue seal, it FEELS like it has more friction than the rubber. But maybe that’s just because there’s chalk sticking to it? In terms of being on the wall, I can’t tell the difference, I mean I smear tiny foot chips with these, but who honestly knows, maybe I’d be better if I had actual rubber under me. It’s certainly something I will test in the future, but that would result in me buying new shoes to test them lol. This is the exact reason why I put “kinda” in the title, because idk how other people are gonna like this, I just like it for myself, and wanted to share my experience. The bottom line is a full bottle of glue costs $9 and gives me a bunch of uses so I don’t get too mad at it.

I’d say the two most important pieces of armor are: 1. Wrist guards as they are snowboarder’s most common injury. Put them underneath oversized gloves, or spend the extra money on built in wrist guard gloves. 2. A high quality butt pad. Demon gear is great (NOT SPONSORED). Spend at least $40 on a butt pad. I also always wear a Demon armor top but it’s low priority. ALL of this is just personal preference and what works for me. One thing I can say for sure: DON’T BUY A TURTLE 🐢 😂 and at the very least try throwing on a helmet 🙏

Lmao why is everyone such snowflakes now a days. Getting hurt and eating shit is part of your progression and is how you learn not to get hurt lol. That’s what makes it so rewarding sometimes getting hurt or rocked on a trick and then getting the courage to do it again and land it. Fucking snowflakes.

Thanks for the video, also very cool to get a second opinion from Knapton. I just test rode the Whatever and agree with all of your points about how the board feels. I just have the exact opposite opinion of whether they are positives or negatives. I hate the slidiness and how you first go into that side zone and another few degrees later get into the edge proper.

Buttpad+backprotector, falling on your back near a busy ski lift as a beginner can be catastrophic given that the snow is super compacted and hard.
