I have several pairs of elbow and knee pads of various brands and wear them every time I point the bike downhill. Lots of steeps and sketch in Socal. I also have a chest protector shirt and full face helmet for bike parks. I dont crash a lot but the pads have saved skin when I do crash. And I just feel safer wearing protective gear which combined with skill progression makes me more confident on the trails.
