Re: Knee Protection


I hope you have good balance and strong inner thigh muscles. One slip and it's the splits
They do seem to help you work faster on flooring jobs. I'd be a little worried about marking up a brand new wood floor that I just laid.
If it was knee surgery that you had, you better make sure you're 100% before using them!

Re: Knee Protection


go to a skateboard shop and buy knee pads
you can get helmets to wear as hard hats too
the GC's will love it!

but really,
a good pair of skateboard pads work awesome

and after a day of ripping, trailing, laying, and sealing

you can stand up, dust yourself off, grab your skateboard and skate back to the shop

on another note:

is it right to show up to an estimate riding there on a skateboard?

these damn gas prices are killing my pick-up

ProKnee is a great product. Platinum Knee pads by Superiorbilt are one of our biggest sellers.
