This is the damage to the ass from sliding on it at maybe 30 mph



Th damage to the knee from thinking I still had some knee puck left



The knee armour (there is about 1/4" of leather around this thing, plus another 1/4" of padding on the inside



The elbow armour, just a 1/2" thick piece of foam, but there is another 1/2" of leather built into the suit. the same type of padding is on the hips and the back. During both my wrecks neither area felt like it was in any pain, even though the highside ended with a rather abrupt ending against the curb stopping me cold breaking some ribs and my collar bone (a driect hit on my upper arm is where i hit).
