We will not be beaten on price or service for Forcefield Body Armour

Forcefield Action Pro Sport impact shorts are, in our opinion, the best snowboard crash pants on the market for snowboarding and any other extreme action sport. We believe this because The Roach had them custom made to his own specification! Forcefield's reputation was earned designing and manufacturing award winning motorcycle protection. Add our snowboarding expertise and you get a winning combination.

Forcefield are the official body armour suppliers to the Salomon UK freestyle ski team and now the Great Britain Snowboard and Ski Teams both use Forcefield Armour too - there must be something in it!

Features Include:

  • Armourflex® - An ultra high tech energy absorbing and impact spreading body armour, offering the best impact protection on the market today, incorporating Nitrex® shock absorbtion foam.
  • Armourflex® - very soft, flexible and heat mouldable so it adapts to your unique body shape and flexes with your body so you hardly know you are wearing it.
  • Armourflex® - Low bulk. Your bum will not look big in these impact shorts and they will fit discreetly under all but the tightest of snowboard pants
  • 4 layers of Armourflex® in the coccyx area - giving the best possible protection to your tail bone. This is the feature The Roach specially demanded. Ordinary Forcefield Action Sport shorts use only 2 layers.
  • 2 layers of Armourflex® in 6 pads covering your buttocks, pelvis, hips and thighs - where greater freedom of movement and less protection are needed
  • Customise your Armourflex® - each each layer is removable so you can customise the fit and protection
  • Lycra® shorts for the perfect fit, male or female
  • Coolmax Extreme® by DuPont for maximum moisture wicking and comfort
  • Both the shorts and the Armourflex® are breathable
  • 3.5cm wide elasticated waist band
  • CE Approved to EN1621-1:1998, EN1621-2:2003, EN13595-1:2002 and EN340:2003. We believe these are the only snowboard crash pants on the market in the UK to have achieved these approval ratings - which are to motorcycle safety standards


Upper Thigh Circumference

  • XL; 19 to 26' (48 - 66 cm)
  • Large; 18 to 25' (45 - 64 cm)
  • Medium; 17 to 24' (43 - 61 cm)

  • XS; 16 to 21' (41 - 53 cm)





When The Roach learned to snowboard, he had one too many heavy landings. The pain was intense and lasted months. After 15 years riding, the crash pants were not worn so often but it only takes one wipe out and this year, THWACK!!!, the pain came back with a vengeance! The Roach was back in the market for a new pair of impact shorts. With the pain still intense, he worked with Forcefield to develop the Action Pro Sport, which are only available at BargainBoards.co.uk.

Top Tips For Girls
  • Men's shorts tend to offer better protection

  • Girl's shorts look prettier

  • If you are UK 10 go for men's small

  • If you are UK 12 go for men's medium

  • UK 14 = men's large, etc.

    Just superb!
    Not a bruise in sight! I brought these after a weeks boarding last year with bruises where no man wants a bruise. But not this year! All I can say is they are comfortable enough to wear all day, but tough enough to protect your important parts

    Bottoms don't look like a baboon's anymore.
    I own a pair of R.E.D. ladies' shorts, and while the padding was protective, they easily added two sizes to my butt. The Forcefield shorts are much less bulky, and with the additional 4-layer coccyx insert included alongside a 2-layer one included in the shorts, the tailbone's gonna get looked after without blowing up your rear end. I think you guys need to emphasise even more about the extra coccyx padding, and that it's neither the standard 4 or 2-layer versions sold by everyone else. Only (minor) drawback is that as they're unisex shorts, I found them long in the waist. However, the microfibre fabric is thin enough to roll the waistband over a few times for a better short-waisted fit. Otherwise, I found the fit to be comfortable, and not super-tight; might also be able to fit into an XS as a size 10.

    You'll even forget you're wearing them
    I love these shorts! They feel a bit weird when you put them on, but your body heat lets the padding mould to your body shape, and after a few minutes you'll forget you even have them on. They are really slimline too- I had no trouble getting them on under my usual trousers, and I was told by a friend that they didn't make my bum look big. I have worn them for a week away, and several trips to snowdomes, and I haven't suffered any of the usual bruising. The added bonus of wearing these shorts for a week of boarding is that you can sit comfortably on the plane on the way home!
