I wear all of the above except elbow and knee pads. I also wear compression wraps on my wrists... I've had one nasty landing that hyperextended my wrist and ever since then I have tried to limit the range of motion when riding.

I ride the quad in my avatar and one other. Mostly trail ride, but I race often and hit the sand pits once in a while.

I ride all those but the knee and elbow pads, I race my shee in MX, but when I trail, I don't wear all my gear, just jerseys, pants, helmet, gloves and boots.

I usually just ride with a helmet and goggles. I hate gloves so I don't wear them unless it's muddy or I'm following somebody closely in rocky terrain. I like to be able to feel the grips, clutch and brake levers, and the thumb throttle. When wearing gloves, I feel a little disconnected from the quad and I hate that. Call me weird if you want, I got a lot of little idiosyncrasies like that. I'm one picky mofo - about everything.

I ride mainly trails and occasionally the mx track...

I"m the only one so far that wears knee and shin guards...The blaster is a bit small for me so I got them to prevent the rupping ad banging up of my knees...

I use THOR equipment too!! Cool stuff!! I like their logo!

I mostly trail ride (rocky & sandy desert terrain), because that's what I have close...just hop on the Shee and go!

Don't wear the knee/elbow pads cause I feel a little restricted by them. Wear gloves and will probably get a chest protector pretty soon cause all the rocky terrain out here and I sometimes ride close to bushes that like to smack the hands, chest, and face! (REAL off-road! Forget the trails!)

And sometimes tape up my wrist Cause I broke it riding my ATV! Pretty well healed up now, but definately don't want to do it again!
