    held evo suit - anyone?

    Looking for input by any who have the Held Evo kangaroo suit.
    Can't seem to find many/any reviews by riders...seen a few on the Slade model.

    Not sure if the lack of reviews mean the Evo hasn't sold well, or owners just aren't posting.

    Overall I'm slightly sold on the durability of kangaroo hide...but I've also heard they can't take as many falls as cowhide can.
    Weight benefit, for me, is negligible...can't say that I've ever felt uncomfortable with the heft of my dainese when my mind is too busy thinking about brake markers and other riders.

    Anybody experience this particular suit??

    Can't help you with Held, but I know Heroic offers 3 levels of custom suits. The second level is a 50/50 mix of Kangaroo and cow, with the cow being in more protective areas. Todd calls that suit "the Loudon" suit. His designs are top notch, too.
