OK, so maybe not
everyone on the team wears these, but I do, and I recommend them to everyone. They're lightweight and breathable and fit well between your boots and knees. These things have saved me from rails, rocks and my occasional out-of-control team rider. Plus, they're nice when you're kneeling down at the bottom of the hill, waiting at the lift for the six kids you just ditched on a pow day. [$19.95;
