    Leave it to a Canadian company like GI to design elbow pads nearly indistinguishable from hockey elbow pads

    The statement about prices being "55-60 Dollars" and nothing higher or lower sounded a bit strange, but after looking them up seriously that's the price range lol

    Just throwing this out there in case the idea sparks your interest, but after much searching it seems like nobody has reviewed any of the Contract Killer products - the elbows or either pair of pants. They’ve historically made solid products so I would assume their pads provide another solid elbow option, and they seem to be one of the few making the old school baggy style pant.

    Can we start a reply-chain to this comment like "I wear ___ size jersey and I prefer to wear ___ size elbow pad?" I don't have a pro shop or anything at my field so I have to order some online, but don't quite know what size.

    The cheaper Exalt elbow pads are awesome.

  • @nflguy10
    @nflguy10 7 років тому +1

    the gi elbow pads are hands down the best for snake players. plus you get SO many bounces off of them. I've had so many bounces it's ridiculous

    • @flipperm3088
      @flipperm3088 7 років тому

      How do those hold up? I'm still rocking my old PE elbow pads but now that I'm not on a turf field they're starting to take quite the beating. Also I wear short-sleeve so its ALL elbow pad contact.

    • @nflguy10
      @nflguy10 7 років тому +1

      Mitchell Marentette they hold up pretty well. I've only ever played on turf fields and I've had them for just about a year now and the only thing that's happen to them is the mesh holes by your elbow ripped a little. other than that they're amazing

    Hey man quick question. I've never tried knee pads, but do they slide around or need constant adjusting? I am on my knees most of every game..

    • @PaintballRuinedMyLife
      @PaintballRuinedMyLife  7 років тому +3

      Mine never do, if you buy the correct size they should stay in place.

    So watching the video, the Empire pads were mentioned but not shown. After speaking about the HK Army ones it "skips " per se and goes straight to the Eclipse pads, with a mention of the Neoskin Empire. But nothing shown about them.????

    Hello I'm a taller player and I have the PE Core elbow pads but have been noticing that the "core" or the actual pad (where it is designed to bend; at the circle) is not actually where my elbow is... are there any elbow pads designed for taller players?

    • @PaintballRuinedMyLife
      @PaintballRuinedMyLife  7 років тому

      True, the Eclipse ones are also really nice

    • @KarlEller
      @KarlEller 7 років тому

      IMO the Dye is the best, because they're basically the only ones in production now that have padding down the side of your ribs. The Eclipse Gen1 Overload bounce vest used to, but they removed it in the Gen2 Overload. HK, Empire, etc don't give you padding down the side of your ribs.

    @JoGGa020 7 років тому

    Hi Brad, How about the Bunkerkings royal guard elbow pads. You didn't mentioned them at all, why? The comfort is really great but I'm interested in the durability....

    • @PaintballRuinedMyLife
      @PaintballRuinedMyLife  7 років тому +1

      I didn't mention, them because I wanted to stick with just some of the more popular pads. If I had alll the elbow pads I feel like it would have been a bit overkill.

    • @JoGGa020
      @JoGGa020 7 років тому

      I bought them and the only downside is that the Velcro doesn't stick well.

    good video, took me forever to find a pair that actually fit me (5'6" but swole af biceps). settled on the PE ones because for most other pads in order to get it to fit over my bicep the pad would be all up in my armpit and not fit right. i had actually picked up a pair of $15 forearm pads from dicks sporting goods prior to that. minimal padding but helped slow down a little bit of the beating my forearms were taking

    • @ashravenpb
      @ashravenpb 7 років тому

      most camo markers are going to be special edition milsim markers or high ends with expensive anodizing. IMO the best speedball markers with camo anodizing are the planet eclipse markers. The HDE looks awesome and is a pretty decent camo pattern for paintball

    Most of those pads do only protect you elbow from slides but they do not protect your forearm from bruises if you got hit. I don´t want to come home with arms covered all over with bruises every week.I´m really pissed about this whole Paintball industry because those idiots are not able to come along with products that really fit all needs. Fuck!

    • @boostedreefer1041
      @boostedreefer1041 4 роки тому

      I just got shot in the neck close range and was bleeding immediately. It’s for diving, and bounces. Plus if you’re playing all day and take hits there a lot, which a lot do, it helps cause after getting hit there in the same arm enough it can be sore the next day at work
