Thigh armour

[Quickling]

Does anyone know of anything currently on the market that would protect the inside of the thigh? One of the girls I play with is haing major problems and thinking of not playing anymore cause for her that area is too sensitive.

thanks

Baggy pants.

try some hockey pants, they are made to take a puck, probably wouldn't even feel a paintball

Tell her to stop being such a girl.

hahaha.... what about something like the over priced dye pants? I see they have a little butt padding, so do they have any around the thighs?

[Mossman]

if i saw someone wearing hockey pants to play paintball theres no telling in what nasty place I'd shoot them.

How many times has she gotten hit on the inside of the thigh that this had become an issue?

[f3rr3+]

i can help her out....






Tell her to wear some paintball pants then wear basket ball pants underneath that, that would be mucho padded... oh yeah and ask her if shes ever been hit in the balls... :P

[Skoad]

how often do you get hit on the inside of the thigh? thats like getting hit in the armpit.

is she doing air-splits while playing or something?


i don't think there is anything besides making something homeade, like wraping some bandage wrap around your legs or something ghetto like that

The only time i've gotten hit on the inner thigh is when i was on my knees leaning back a little and someone managed to get an angle on my so they could see the whole front of my body. So tell her to stop letting that happen...

That game sucked too 'cause i chopped and didn't have a squeegee and when a friend tried to throw me one it fell short and in front of my bunker. That's how i got shot, tried to lean out and get it lol.

Actually, I've got a good size welt on the inside of my leg, thats begining to go away. Theres no spot thats safe from getting hit. I wouldnt say its such a weird shot. A pair of Pball pants, and a heavier pair of mesh shorts would probably work. Really though, thats a tough spot to pad.

[f3rr3+]

i say that the "butt-hole" is pretty safe from getting shot :P

I get hit in the thigh area all the time, i dont know why though

[-Carnifex-]

Are you sure she's a girl?!

[FooTemps]

i only get hit on the inside of the thigh like a couple inches up from my knee.

When I took a few female friends out to play I found out they got shot in the thigh quite a bit. It took me a while to figure out why.
Its the way they play, instead of leaning out with their upper torso to shoot out a bunker the put their whole side of their body in a one legged kneel position if that makes any sense. I guess they put their stronger leg as the higher leg which is the side leaning out. Bam, the whole thigh area is exposed.
Thats my guess on how they are getting shot in that area and the cause for concern.
