Any idea what caused the crash? We know where the damage came from... I'd say buy new gloves, it's not worth fixing them when $60 can get you new one- from US of course.

If you're willing the spend the money, the Knox Handroids are the best gloves I've worn.  RC51_dude might be getting a pair too.  I haven't crash tested them but it looks more protective than the Alpinestars SP2 that I crashed in.  Those gloves did their job and I only had two bruised fingers.

I don't blame my gloves for my hand injuries, I think they did a pretty good job actually. I was rolling many times over and my hands must have smacked the ground a few times before I stopped.

But yeah, I will look at the Handroids.

Here's a video of Ostro's first lowside, then his off-roading ride (complete with Rossi-like leg hanging), RC's lowside aftermath, ending with me just having a messed up day at the track: HERE


Hey Rob, this was like your lowside!!
  :thumbsup:

Hope all is well with your wrist and ankle..
