Replying to Hip protectors, does anyone use them?

Had a bit of slump on the slope the other day and ate shit on a 2 on and tacoed the rail with mostly my hip and it was the worst pain I’ve felt in a long while. Left the mountain feeling defeated. Which made me think about hip protectors. Definitely want to get some padded compression shorts to lessen the blow because let’s be real, hitting ur hips on rails fucking sucks. Anyone have any recommendation or experience using these?
