If you spend a lot of time in the terrain park and take a number of falls every time you go out (hey, it’s not your fault… it’s the lousy snow conditions), then these padded snowboard shorts might be something to look into. The Pro-tec IPS Halo Papa Hip Pads are similar to the padding football players wear beneath their pants. They provide some extra protection for those rough landings. They can also be a smart idea if you teach lessons, and 6 year olds are crashing into you all day long. The hip pads cost about $60 and are available at several online retailers, such as Tactics.
