I've got a set of impact shorts that I use on occasions. What are you curious about? I find they feel tight and restrictive when you first put them on but definitely soften up with body heat. I only wear them when I think I might land on a rail. I don't think they help much for "normal" falls on snow but they definitely help if you don't commit to a backside boardslide. I'm just a guy in his mid 30's trying to learn tricks he should have learnt when he was 15, so for that they're useful.
Conditions related, man Saturday was great - a spring day 3 seasons in the making! With 2020 being robbed by Covid and 2019 having generally disappointing (cold) spring conditions, that was the best day since Shake the Lake 2018!
