I am looking into starting motocross racing next spring but need to get some more gear first some I am going to buy and some I am going to hit people up for christmas to get. Currently I am looking at the Thor Core 5 pants, gloves and jersey. HJC fuel or static helmet, Fox Extreme elbow guards, MSR V top Knee guards, Fox Black belt Kidney belt and Scott High Voltage. I used to have all this gear when I was a kid but havent had any in a few years right now all I got is a THH full face helmet and work boots for gear
However when practicing it seems I am crashing a couple times each time
(I ride at the limit at I seem to be improving because I can go way faster and jump way higher everytime and I dont just go to 1 place over and over I go to 5 or 6 places go to about 4 a week)
Anyways point is I need some gear I cant go a full week without a limp or bruises and cuts all over me. Luckily I havent broken any bones yet this year but dont want to start as some of my crashes are quite violent (I need new decals, fenders and shrouds but not until race season cause they dont last long since I dont just ride on pure top soil or sand tracks)
THanks for your suggestions or experience with the items I listed I already have Answer Team 2 Boots ordered (my feet are still growing didnt want to get expensive Garene, SIdi or Alpine Stars boots that I would outgrow)
