telemarkers have been using knee-guards for awhile. i dont use em, but i guess some people hit their knees hard enough and often enough to use em.

I have terrible shins; bad enough to where it hurts to walk after skiing for 5+ days straight. I'm trying the booster strap this year, so I'll see how that works out.
