body armor...possible wholesale prices
If you had the ability to purchase body armor at a better rate through a base jumper, what would you be looking for?

I have an inroad with a company that supplies motocross racers and am interested in knowing who is looking for what and what kind of prices you have found through other avenues.

Re: [SpecialKaye] body armor...possible wholesale prices
 
I wear:
- snowboard helmet
- cheap knee pads
- back protector
- hip protector shorts

I'd like to have:
- light weight full face with real protection (not a skydiving helmet)
- knee + shin guards
- comfortable elbow pads

My helmet is Salomon, back protector Velocity Gear and hip (and ass) protector shorts are Dainese.

I'd pay 100€ or more for a helmet I like. The Dainese Impact shorts were 70€, Velocity Gear back protector was 130€ (upper body armour) which I thought was a good price. Knee and shin guards I'd pay 50€ for a good quality product?

Hope that helps.
