As the say "Play you Pay!" I am using the new KH wrist/gloves and really like them. Had a really good "palm plant" last week end and no pain.

Should be lots of us this sunday doing the MUni thing, along with some newcomers! Are you in?

Slightly late in replying to this as I had to dig out the photo. Looks very similar

Mine took a good few months to heal properly and I've now ordered some wrist supports as although my palm was heavily bruised it was my wrist that took longer to heal.

Whoa that does look similar! I just hope mine heals sooner than "a few months"!

Harbinger 110G WristWrap Gloves, like Obe said. I've run these for two years now and my wrists and palms are fine. The proof that they work is that the plastic insert on my gloves is totally gouged and scraped up, meaning I'll fallen on my hands, hard, many, many times. I think it's crazy to ride Muni (especially on the rocks) w/out writst guards with a hard insert.

well this saturday me, perry, new local rider Eric, and another riderf ("Jaco42") from out of town visiting, will be doing the Portuguese bend trail, which is DH shuttle. Start at 1pm.

Sunday same group doing rockit..or whatever , maybe we could all do san juan loop, starting about noon-1pm Let me know. (I*REALLY* want to do that DH san juan shuttle soon!)

I'll see my schedule, I do like earlier, plus it is forecast rain on Sunday so earlier gives a better chance at dryness.

I always wear full-fingered leather reinforced gloves-as I was the day of my hand injury-but they did nothing to prevent my palm from getting badly bruised. I now also wear wrist guards w/palm guards built in.

All I know is that I wear large size gloves and wrist guards, so small, or xtra small is out of the question for me.

I'm going to google those harbingers and try to locate size large.
