Does anybody know if there are any pants or liners with thigh protection? I went over the bars and was out for three weeks because my thighs hit the handlebars so hard. I had a bruise from my hip all the way down the front of my quadricep to my knee. It still hurts to walk and its been a month. I wear knee pads and a chest protector, but really want to get something for the thighs. Am I going to have to resort to football pads?
On a side note, my friends thought it was hilarious. The sled bucked me over the bars and then ran me right over. I had to turn out of a steep climb. I barely made it around a tree and then had to come down the hill in kind of a bad spot with some small drop-offs. First drop of three feet wasn't bad but wasn't ready for the next 5 footer and the hole at the bottom. Endo-City! It took them about 20 minutes to stop laughing, so at least I was the entertainment for the day! Snow was too good to stop for the day so I rode the rest of the day with them. On the ride home I stiffened up and could barely stand up when we went to unload the snowmobiles. Sucks to get old!

I'm going with the EVS PP05. Looks like exactly what I was looking for. The 661 Bomber looks good too but $15 more. Thanks for the help and suggestions.
