I love these things. I get hit in the arms so much and these have saved me from many many bruses. Love the design on the padding too.I play alot of speedball and when you snap out from behind the bunkers you are not worried about getting hit in the arm anymore. They say padding is for wussies i say padding saves your body from damage.
Ok I bought these Like three months ago and I love them. They are hard to get on at first but you get used to them. They have exelent padding and quality. (its made by Planet Eclipse). They are starting to fad but they are elbow padz so it's all good.
Ok so i was tired of me knees being all destroyed after I got back from playing. I went to my local shop and saw these hanging next to my knee pads. I couldn't pass them up. Normally I play back so these are not completely necessary. Since i have gotten them i have taken 4 bounces off of my forearm. I made two snake crawls since I got these. I could not feel a thing with them. Normally I don't wear a jersey so these take a beating with me. With all i have been playing i have not had one tear or rip.
Conclusion:
Get these you may think they are pricy but it is so worth it in the end.

Review:
I personally didn't like the thumb holes. They work for most people but they just irritated my hands. So I got the smaller size so they are nice and tight. otherwise these are the best elbow pads out there. I bought mine directly from Planet Eclipse out accross the pond and I got a nice speedy delivery on the other parts i ordered. Makes me feel sorry that Ledz gets robbed so much. Hope that they find the ring of robbers GOOD LUCK LEDZ!!!
After slipping and bashing my elbow into the ground moving to the next bunker causing quite a bit of blood, I decided it was time for a set of pads. Went with these bacause of the reviews here. After receiving them, I played the next day. sliding into the snake is not an issue anymore and bounces were happening all the time. they stay tight to the arm. I was a ittle concerned with how tight they were around the hand (i have really big hands) but a second after the break, I didn't even notice it. I would recommend these to anyone, the price is right too!!
One of my biggest concerns was how they fit when I was ordering them on-line. for those who are wondering about size, I am 6'1", 180lbs and I have 14.5 inch biceps, I got the large and they fit perfect. there just needs to be a little break in period.
Conclusion:
Like I said, great fit, great bounce, and built to keep you from bleeding...
These are my 1st pair of elbow pads and i have to say they are tough ive played 15- 16 games and not a prob yet they look like they did the day i bought them. also they are very well shaped they fit your arm in a very natural way, the thumb hole is great too it keeps the pad tight on your arm so it doesnt rotate.
Conclusion:
Even though i have only had them a short time from what i have seen i think i will have these a long time quality and durability get these you wont regret it

Weaknesses:
None.
Review:
They stay in the right spot on your arm, if your a snake player you dont feel the inital impact as u land. They have a big thick elbow and the fore arm is rather solid.
Bounces were happning all weekend off my arms i love them! The thumbhole was great and putting on my gloves over the top made sure they wernt going to come off.

Review:
i didnt think these pads would be as good as they are. i had some protos before these and they always moved around on me. its a real pain when you slide in the snake and your pads move on you. these eclipse pads solved that problem. they have a twisted design, so the pads conform to the shape of your arms. some of the stiching came loose after i washed them, but i just stiched em back up no problem. these truly are the best pads for the money out there. whether you play back or front you're guaranteed a bounce or two with these. go out and get a pair NOW!!!!
