Are knee pucks just knee pucks?

Need to get a set for the Sept track day and wanted to know if there is a difference?

(not that I'll get a knee down, but...)

[OreoGaborio]

not much difference, no.

Buy the black ones with the bright yellow smilie faces on them. Not because they are any better than anything else. Do it just to piss off Kurtz. It's fun. Trust me.

Just don't get "sparky" ones.

I personally like the ones that Woodcraft sells... they are called KLUCKY PUCKS.

The velcro on them is phenomenal, and they wear great.

So phenomenal...I can't get them off my old riding pants...well almost...it's a struggle.

Use a flathead screwdriver or butter knife.

Oh look. Now you don't even have to search for the smilie face ones. There they are!


(gotta admit, I kinda dig the skull design)

I just went back and looked at these again and realized that they are leather. I assume that it's multiple layers, stacked horiziontally, under high pressure... No?



Leather vs. Plastic vs. Ceramic

+1 on thew skulls, got me thinking, then...

NOT.

Yea... You don't quite understand the sickness though. Finding those knee pucks is the perfect justification for ordering them, as well at the Arai, Josh Hayes Replica. You know... $65 knee pucks = $700 new helmet to match...

A* pucks wore down pretty quick. I am currently using Dainese pucks simply because I had them and didn't want to buy more sets. They are holding up pretty good.

Are you talkng about the Jolly Roger RX-7 Corsair? If so, I already have that helmet. (and only paid $550 for it on eBay)

[The Snowman]

OK, I'm probably going to be blasted for this, but I bought a pair of Joe Rocket Speedmaster pucks

Figured the ceramic would help them wear better. What can I say, I'm ignorant to this kind of shit.

No, the Quantum actually. It fits me much better than the RX-7. I'm sure of it. I already have multiples of both models... Told you... sickness...

And, don't go bragging about what you payed for yours... If I told you what I paid for my RX-7 "Tommy Gun" you would cry...

They're actually very nice knee pucks. Ceramic construction and the logo goes all the way through the puck. Nice touch.

Well, $250 off retail works for me.

Wow, you mean I did good?

[Jaynnus]

I used to have a set with a nekked chick on them....

You almost sound surprised!

Hell, if I spotted them, I woulda swiped them too!

Klucky Pucks have been very good for me so far.

Excellent wear, they don't melt (like some of the others) and, as it's already been said, the Velcro....holy crap! You'd lose a knee cap before one of those pucks came off.

EDIT: I'm still curious about leather pucks however.

[DucDave]

Are knee pucks just knee pucks?

sometimes....but according to Freud, not always...

The A* pucks had a tendency to blister.

Next time out on T Road you can try my leather pucks. I don't care for them as the coefficient of friction is fucking huge if you get any weight on them. Regards, Jake

Good choice! They last a long time and offer decent feedback.
