Icon, alpinestars, and many more companies do a lot and go out of their way to help out this "sport" so I don't have a problem buying their stuff and supporting them.
Jayseal22 said it, with anything, there is good products and bad with each company. You can't judge how well a jacket(or whatever else) will do in the event of a wreck just by looking at it. Even someone saying "mine ripped" doesn't mean your's will because no 2 accidents are exactly the same.
You also can't blame squids that can't ride a wheelie to save their life for wanting to wear the same stuff as the pro's. Do you(to everyone) freak out @ people in the YMCA, or wherever, if they're wearing jersey's of their favorite athletes? Everyone starts somewhere and if you know anything about riding, stunting, racing, etc, and are decent you'll know the BS'er's when you see an talk to them and it shouldn't be hard to show 'em up if need be. With motorcycles, the squids and people that jus aren't made for it, generally get weeded out eventually, ie wrecking and getting scared or even unfortunately killed...so don't sweat it if a bunch of tools have the same **** as you.
MotoGP'rs wear kangaroo skin anymore..

Hey kid *** all the shittalkers. I've had freinds that went down hard in Joe Rocket mesh, Icon mesh, leathers and all kinds of ****. I,ve never seen any of the jackets tear all the way through. I wear a speedrag stunter leather and I love it. Lots of armor, heavy leather and it loks ****. Only cost me $150 on E-Bay.

Re: Icon...Let Down
Hey GIXXER I am a self proclaimed SQUID !!! I got the bad *** icon gloves with TITANIUM , the bad *** riding icon shirt ($120 retail) heck I bought 2 of these!!! I might not get the trix done yet ,but everyone believes me when I say I can!!! Shoot I should ditch the 97 f3 and learn on a new bike!!! Squid I believe I am but I will get good!!! Whats wrong with looking good while learning??? I really dont tell people I can stunt ,that would be straight up b.s. My point is I found something I really like to do (well learning to do) and buying and wearing the IN gear makes me a squid!!! I will wear the crown!!! peace

ok i origianally thought thread was about protection concerns but it seems more like its about not wearing what squids at bike night wear and not wanting to look like them cause its nausiating well if thats the case everyone concerned needs to sell off their F4I's Gixxer's etc and purchase one off handbuilt stuntbikes because the squids that you guys have a problem with are probably riding the same bike as you and you gotta be different right?

oh yeah on the LVX question Urban Assault was an X-Factor production and the only thing it had to do with LVX is the fact that it was the first video they were in together after they split.

whats fu@ked up is i didnt even know what kind of mesh jacket i have. I just looked its a first gear, i bought it for hot days knowing that it isnt gonna protect like leather. Mesh jacks are for days when you wouldnt wear a coat otherwise and some protection is better than nothin. BTW jacket is as cool as wearin a Tshirt.
