Fat lot of good this thing did.


some very busted bits.


Horn actually makes very effective frame slider


120mph, all slide, doesn't even need to go for repairs.... have i mentioned i love my vansons??


almost had some piggys hanging out on the left...whatever made that mark on the top of my right boot broke every bone in it's path.


only took 3 crashes to kill these things... can you tell wich one i used to steer my slide?

Yeah that works too

Really, those held up well, and i don't think i see any holes at all in the gloves.

don't go 120mph...what a very silly thing to say.

more like don't have your front tire go flat while doing 120mph.

...and despite the stories i've heard about icon ti max gloves failing. i can't say enough good things about the pair i have. they would still be usable if the velcro cuff didn't get ruined

Glad to hear that your gear help up. I would like someone I ride with see how good leather saves your ass. He wears jeans or shorts with a t-shirt when he rides. Not trying to be a "gear nazi" but even a textile jacket is better than a t-shirt or sweater.
