Body Shield?

vadrip · 07-05-2005, 01:56 AM

I have been training with a friend and I wanted get a belly pad and possibly a leg kick(suitcase) pad. The cheapest suitcase pad I could find is at http://www.omega-gear.com/index.cfm?...=258&pageid=90

The thing is the same place sells a body shield which looks like it could double as suitcase pad and be used the same as a belly pad; except, of course you can't hold thai pads and have on the belly pad at the same time as with the build shield.

Also, it doesn't have the actually suitcase handle at the top of it like the suitcase pad does, but since the body sheild they sell is much cheaper and looks like it could at least double for a suitcase pad and could be used much better for push kicks and etc than thai pads, do you think that seems like a good idea or should I eventually get the suitcase and belly pad and forget about the body shield. The body shield:

www.combatsports.com has better prices on belly pads. I can't see you getting a better price on the leg shield. I think it's a good price!

I bought the leg kick pad just because of the price, I have to think about when and if I buy a belly pad or even a body sheild for that matter. Lopezma, I've seen ringside and warrior one sell that same exact belly pad from combat sports at the same price too.
