I don't know if it's possible to wear knee pads underneath the Birdman Pantz and still have them be effective, but on a terminal wall where Pantz would allow you to get more separation from the object, would you rather go with the Pantz or wear kneepads for safety?

I appreciate that obviously the site being jumped will be a huge influence on your decision, so for the sake of argument let's use the most popular terminal wall in Norway as the example site (or feel free to make up your own), and also assume that you have practiced with Pantz are capable of flying them effectively.

I'm just trying to get a sense for the tradeoff that exists here. (Or if none exists, let me know why!)

Thanks,

You can wear kneepads under your pantz. No need to trade off.

There are lots of good pads designed to be worn under your clothing (which is preferred most of the time, for various reasons).

Sweet, I didn't know that. Thanks.

I have no problem wearing my hard shell knee pads under my pantz either.
