my friend was walking up a slope today and slipped bashing his knee as he went. he ended up with a 2inch gash about a 1/4 inch deep through his proto defender pads. 
I was going about to buy some eclipse pads but then following this injury was wondering if id be better off with the viper "tactical" style pads.
would these viper things offer better protection from falls / bangs, and are they rubbish for sliding in?
