Foam Padding at the tailbone and hips cushions hard falls and helps reduce injuries. These foam pads are sewn into the lycra shorts. Black or beige.
Made from an air-foamed gel, Bunga Crash Pads are used to lessen impact to your butt, hips and back caused by falling on these areas in sports such as figure skating, inline, rollerskating and acrobatic skiing. Often used as a liner for impact protection in other sports. Used by actors and stunt artists. Pads can be easily inserted and removed from purpose-built pockets in the heavy-duty lycra shorts.
Crash Pads offer an un-precedented level of protection!Note: Measurements for proper size on this product is taken around the waist and hip
These pads are very thin. They are worn between the tights with the waffled side toward the body. They are almost unnoticeable under the tights. The lack of bulk has made them very popular among young skaters, who want the protection, but will not accept the appearance that other pads have. The material used to construct SkatingSafe Fall Protection Pads is unsurpassed in its impact energy absorbing characteristics. It is and has been used in many products, unrelated to Figure Skating, as a shock absorber since 1975.
