Review on Advanced Black Palm Protector by Risk Racing by Elmito Yeager

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow! Redemption for my hands!

Someone showed me these shoes when I was at Mammoth MTN last year and I finally bought a pair and damn these things are amazing! your hands get a little warm under your palms just hanging around without riding, but once you get on a bike (mx or mtn bike) you don't notice it anymore. When you first put them on, it takes a circle or two for you to forget they're there, but once that happens you don't notice them anymore. They thicken the overall grip area a bit if that's an issue, but then again they also add a layer of cushioning/comfort (more noticeable on an MTN bike since I ride a lot in the parks). This was a totally unexpected benefit! :) I'll be riding them from now on, can't tell you how much they help if you spend more than a day or two at the bike park, life saver!

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Only available in black
