Review Title

By D.Chu Ranked #385 - Alpine Skiing November 11, 2009

Unimpressed. I was curious when I picked these up to order them why they were so much more expensive than the similar Burton shorts or the POC VPD Hip Shorts (which use a similar soft material that stiffens upon impact). Now that I've worn and compared, I'm even more curious.

The D3O zones are thinner and provide less coverage than either of the cheaper options. They do have solid frontal thigh protection, but that strikes me as something that'd be more important for biking than for snowboarding, so keep it in mind.

These are definitely going back.
