Curious


:puzzled:
Do you have a thinner version of the hillbilly(Impact Shorts) butt pads..or just a very adjustable harness?

Mine have padding 1/2-3/4" thick and when I measure w/ it on..... it adds 6+ inches circumferance(in effect -the waist)! My harness doesn't fit like a glove but that's WAYYY too much an expansion to work.

Who has that range of Harness adjustability to go with or without the HillBilly butt pads?.

Unless you have a very adjustable harness to wear over the Impact shorts...like the Ozone Access w/ it's wide range waist adjustment...or something else as adjustable, I don't see how it can work.
You wouldn't have the option. Would have to go up a size or TWO to fit the padding underneath that you would always have to use with it.

It's also quite thick to sit in a buggy with..though the the segmented padding bends fine-better than say , a stiff harness itself like a Dakine Fusion.

{Fusion not so good a buggy harness anyway: too high and stiff}


What are you using w/butt pads for a harness , Erratic W, Stetson....anyone.... Bueuller...anyone?

BTW....Most( especially standing) harnesses already have some foam padding...so..... how about a prototype harness that just adds thicker padding too it (segmented for flexability- like a Hillbilly)? Why awkwardly wear another thick piece under a harness ?

Also..if we're polling here what ..'we're riding with.." .. I only use a helmet now while buggying.
