I started wondering if maybe i was mis-remembering the whole thing with
Ho Depotz and
decided to take a look, make sure they still sell the things...they do
http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?keyword=knee+pads&langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053
and the guy I sail with has the "Roberts" and likes them and boy are
they cheap!
Although, the injected gel versions look awful comfy!!

Home Deputz sells a few different varies...including a hard cap set.
they range from like 10 bux for the soft to 25-30 for the hard....I
think they
sell them in the Flooring and Carpet areas...for people who spend a lot
of time on their knees.
I bought some hockey or skate knee pads at Sports Authority and didnt
like
them much. Then my knee got better and I stopped wearing them
altogether.
But a guy I sail with on the J24 wears the hard cap type and he likes
them....he
does trim and you get backed around a lot....J24s really are boxes of
pain, most
people would agree. Better than a Lightning, but only marginally so.
Anyway, you can save some dough by getting them from Homely Deputz
instead of
some expensive sports place, I believe.
I hope your kness start feeling better! -tf

Hey gang,
I'm tired of getting my knees all banged up when bouncing around the
cockpit. Anyone have suggestions on the best type of knee pads to get?
Thanks,
