Demon Skinn Compression Womens Ski/Snowboard Impact Shorts, L Black

I bought these for roller derby as I had an injured coccyx and didn't want to do it again. They fit really well, if you go by the size guide. Padding is good as I have fallen since, and not really felt it. However they do make me quite sweaty. I would recommend these as the price is pretty good for what they are.

I bought these as protection for my full day beginner snowboarding lesson. I certainly spent a lot of my time crash landing on my butt. I feel if I hadn't been wearing them I would have done serious damage. I did have pain when I sat down for a few days after the lesson but u did fall hard numerous times. I dread to think what the pain/ lasting damage would have been if I wasn't wearing my pads. Slim fit so can go under trousers without anyone noticing you have them on & ladies no your bum doesn't look big in them :)

I started playing roller derby in January, and a few weeks in took a nasty fall where not only did I get pulled down straight onto my ass, but unfortunately someone's skate decided to get in between my ass and the floor. OUCH. That was my coccyx fractured. After a few weeks of taking it easy and knowing the best thing to do would be to get some boots protection, i also got the fear. Whenever we were learning a new skill that could potentially land me on my bottom, I would nope out of it. So I ramped up the search for some shorts. I started off looking at derby specific shorts but they were few and far between. I then thought about what other sports involved falling on your butt and decided to look at crash pants for Snowboarding. After reading a few reviews and price checking these certainly turned out ti be the best. When they arrived I had practice that night so they went straight on. I love the 2 removeable pads for your coccyx. At the moment they're both in but I can remove them as I like. They have definitely taken a few falls and even more slides, and are holding up amazingly (I even wear them over the top of my leggings, so they are totally exposed to whatever I'm falling on). Because I have these on I feel so much safer, in fact they gave me the confidence to play on the half pipes at our local skate park, something which without these wouldn't have felt safe doing. They are so so comfortable, and you can wear them under your leggings as they have a nice slim profile without compromising the padding. I have a lot of love for these shorts! Satan's Sister x

This is a great product and you can trust the pictures and description. I needed this as a beginner snow boarder.... In hindsight, I should have got a even more padded pair since I fell over so much. But the description is true, it is not the most padded one, so you just need to work out what you really need.

I bought these shorts as I was going snowboarding for the first time (although I had done a 3hr lesson before) so I knew I needed some padding as I would be falling over a lot whilst learning. They were fine until one of the days I fell right on my lower back/bottom and they did nothing at all for me, I was in so much pain that I had to not snowboard on the last day of my holiday. Disappointment!

Very lightweight and comfortable but if you're looking for something with more protection then it's not the best choice!
