Who needs body armor?

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Tue Jan 13, 2004 11:48 pm

I'm looking for a group of people that need (Elbow, knee, wrist pads) I just spoke to Wild Bill about a discount on his pads.
He told me IF I can get a some people together and buy a decent amount of pads we could could be looking at a better price.
I don't know how many orders we need or how big of a discount will be, but figure I would ask around.

I need some “open back” knee pads that are suitable for vert riding. You can add me to your list for those.

Jack Quarantillo · Post by **Jack Quarantillo** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 1:55 am

I've been thinkin' about getting some real knee pads.

Barry,
I am in the market for new pads. (Elbow, knee, and wrist guards). I've been meaning to contact Bill, but I guess I'm a SLACKER. Anyway, like Wes, I'd prefer "open backs" on my knee pads, however they do not need to be super thick. Wes must fall....I mean skate...more than me

.
I'll be watching this forum for news, or you can e-mail me at dan_tammy_m@hotmail.com
Thanks

The sexy, slim knee pads led me astray once and I ended up paying for it with a broken ankle. For vert riding, I only have eyes for big, chunky pads.

Adam Trahan · Post by **Adam Trahan** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 3:12 am

Pro Designs are great pads. I have the wrist guards (just getting over a broken wrist from NOT wearing wrist guards) knee and elbow pads.

I called Wild bill up and talked pads with him and he help me make a choice. When I broke my wrist, I was wearing the pads and not a single scratch or bruise. I think if I was wearing the wrist guards, I would have walked away with just a little scrape on my shoulder...

Good choice, hope you guys get enough people together to get a better deal.

Seth Levy · Post by **Seth Levy** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 10:17 am

i am in for the deal. i am in need of good pads. i have cheapo everything and i am starting to feel it in my falls

Rick Stanziale · Post by **Rick Stanziale** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 1:15 pm

Barry, count me in for a set of vert kneepads

Thanks,
Rick

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 7:40 pm

Cool, I think we're doing pretty good.

Wrist -- 3
Elbow--2
Knee-- 6

By the end of the week i'll get with Wild Bill,Is that ok with everybody?

thanks

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 8:46 pm

If it’s still gaining interest, let’s keep it open through the weekend.

I have a few personal preferences that I didn't state in my original pad choice. Please let me know when I should send Bill my specifics.

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Thu Jan 15, 2004 5:21 pm

We can keep it open as long as everyone wants.

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 7:43 pm

Do you think we should go a head and make our order??
Or wait a few more days??

I told WB that everyone here would call or email their needs, just tell him "you're part of the SSb list"

thanks everyone

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 8:32 pm

It doesn’t look like anyone else is interested, but maybe that is because people don’t know about this group deal. Maybe you could change the subject title to something like “Get in on our group discount for ProDesigned pads!” or "Need PD pads? Get in on this group discount!” (message me if you need help making the statements bold). I could also email people about this deal too.

Or, you could just go ahead and get the price quote from Bill.

I may be going in for a pair of vert-style elbow pads too, but I'm not sure yet.

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 9:32 pm

wese,
how do you do BOLD lettering? or you can type it out

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Tue Jan 20, 2004 7:26 pm

I just got a response on another site for one pair of elbow pads (I posted your topic there to see if I could get anyone else to join in).

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 1:33 pm

wesE,
should we close this out and order our pads??

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 8:29 pm

Yeah, Barry. let's get this thing through the pipe.

What should we do next? I can post the directions on the other website that I have at least one more person interested. Maybe others there will just go ahead and join this then too.

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 8:42 pm

I think we need everyone thats involved to post a reply stating what pads they need.
then once we get the numbers i'll get with WildBill.
do you think we covered everything?

THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR BEING IN THIS AND WE ALL CAN SAVE MONEY.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 9:00 pm

I don't know if anyone from the other site will post here, due to the fact that SlalomSkateboarder.com requires people to register with their full name.

Barry Gourley · Post by **Barry Gourley** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 9:26 pm

I need:

1)Wrist gards--L
1)knee pads--- L mini ramp... not to bolky

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 10:10 pm

I am definitely in for:
One pair of heavy-duty knee pads, with open back and made with specific fabrics (1000-denier cordura in color-beige for the outer covering, and a fast-drying fabric for the lining. Measurements still need to be taken for the pads, but my general-size is medium.

I am waiting on an email reply from Bill regarding the design feasibility of a pair of elbow pads. I will give him a phone call if I don't hear from him soon. Then I will post if I want a pair of elbow pads for myself.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 11:30 pm

Barry,
I just found another person wanting to get a pair of elbow pads and wrist guards. Who knows, maybe we would have a few more if we keep it going through tomorrow (but still have it be a LAST CALL type of thing).

Do you think you could register at SilverfishLongboarding.com and then answer any questions that come up in this topic that I started there? Not to take over all the work, or anything, but just to answer any question that I can’t.

Dan Mitchell · Post by **Dan Mitchell** » Fri Jan 23, 2004 11:36 pm

Here's what I want:
Rec/Slalom kneepads, open back
Rec/Slalom elbow pads
Wrist guards

I don't need custom sizing, but I'd like to give Bill the measurements and let him choose the size, since my current pads are department store fare and who knows how the sizes correspond.

For wrist guards, I take a med. Pro-Tec so whatever is comparable is fine.

Thanks for your effort, Barry!

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sat Jan 24, 2004 12:17 am

Sizing for PD pads are given in a link for it here: http://www.prodesigned.com/M3.htm

I just got another bite for elbow pads.
That makes:
Three (3) pairs of elbow pads and one (1) pair of wrist guards for people at the other site.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sat Jan 24, 2004 11:53 pm

We have confirmation for:
Knee pads - Barry, Padan, WesE, and Matt Rabbit = 4 pairs of knee pads.
Elbow pads - Padan, WesE, and Philo = 3 pairs of elbow pads.
Wrist guards - Barry, Padan, and Philo = 3 pairs of wrist guards.

What about Seth, Jack Q, Rick 66, and Momona Boe?

Comonn, dudes. The more the merrier (and I do think it could be quite merry).

Danny Crawford · Post by **Danny Crawford** » Sun Jan 25, 2004 5:14 am

I may be interested it just really depends on the price.

Rick Stanziale · Post by **Rick Stanziale** » Sun Jan 25, 2004 5:44 pm

I'm in for two pairs of knee pads. One for vert and another for slalom.

Jack Quarantillo · Post by **Jack Quarantillo** » Sun Jan 25, 2004 5:52 pm

Anyone else interested?

Eddy Martinez · Post by **Eddy Martinez** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 3:46 am

Make that another pair of elbow pads and knee pads for me as well. Bill just replied to my email and he says the discount is true. YES. I could not get that horrible stench out of my old elbow pads. By the way thanks Wes E I remember a while back you posted that you could find some decent skate shoes at Target. Found a pair for 20$.

RL · Post by RL » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:22 am

Jack Quarantillo · Post by **Jack Quarantillo** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 9:33 pm

Wes/Barry,
There's been some chatter about pads on the Bulldog forum, I may have a few new recruits...

Gary Saenz - old · Post by **Gary Saenz - old** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 10:31 pm

Put me down for one set of vert knee pads.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 11:19 pm

Jack,
That’s great! The more the merrier.

If you know of people outside of SS.com that want to get in on this deal, but don’t want to register with their full name here, I am taking declarations in a topic over at SilverfishLongboarding.com (Click here for it). When we decide to finallize the group discount, I will send everyone a private message containing the discount code. They then mention the code to Bill Walker of Pro Designed when they place their pad order and the discount will be given to them.

Barry,
It’s all taken care of. Thanks anyway. If you are still logged onto Silverfish, you should delete the new topic that you started there by clicking the button with the “X” on it that is next to the “Edit” button.

Gary,
Cool! You are added to the list.

We have confirmation for:
Knee pads - RicL, GaryS, Eddy, Barry, Padan, WesE, Rick66 (2-pair), Jack Q, and Matt Rabbit = 10 pairs of knee pads.
Elbow pads - Matt Rabbit, RicL, Momona Boe, Eddy, Padan, WesE, and Philo = 7 pairs of elbow pads.
Wrist guards - RicL, Barry, Padan, and Philo = 4 pairs of wrist guards.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Tue Jan 27, 2004 2:30 am

I am going to keep this open through tomorrow (Tuesday). If there are no new declarations of pads/gear by the end of that day, I will consider it time to put the deal into action. At that point, I will private message everyone with something unique to be identifiable by Bill Walker as recipients of the group discount.

Barry, I hope that is cool with you.

RL · Post by RL » Tue Jan 27, 2004 4:47 am

Wes, i contacted WB so he knows Im in for pads also.
