I've had fly, msr and shift. Shift is by far my favorite. Style, durable and comfortable wise.

A dealer told me that Thor and Shift are made by the same company just a different name on there product. I have always liked Thor, When I raced motocross thor helped out with some free stuff. Fox only wanted to help out the pro riders, and like someone else said every punk kid wears fox and alot of stores are selling fox and have no idea about motosports at all.

We just ordered Oneal last week then they called n said the gear we wanted in back ordered so we cancelled and we were trying to get sponsored since DEC they said they are done supporting riders for 2010. Wanted it since not many others have it......

Lots of good other ideas above thanks for all the input. :D

I started with Thor, but after my first set of Troy lee I won't change again. Great quality and protection. We run Troy gear, and helmets. Scott USA is supplying our boots and goggles, tld protectors and leatt brace. Support products from sixsixone

we have been using companies that support us in return, tld is new for 2010 for us support wise, but sixsixone has a great sponsor program and Scott as well!
