Snowboarding body armour

_DMac_

Hey folks.

Sorry bout new thread but I had a look and didn't see anything on body armour.

The story is there's 3 of us heading to Austria next week and we are trying to get the body armour before we go as it will cost a fortune in Austria. Irishsnowboards.com don't have any left and I'm wondering does anyone know of anywhere else that sells it around the Leinster area.

Thanks in advance

Motorbike shops.

They may be slightly different models, but basically Diansese is a motorbike armour manufacturer first that then figured they could flog their wares to boarders as well. The bike shops may not have the arse pads, but back protectors should be easy to find.

Now that I think of it that is twice I've mentioned motorbike shops as a source of winter sports gear in the last couple of weeks ... robinph goes off to edit the list of where to shop in the FAQ ...
