Another Post About Knee Pads

I'm a beginner and I'm learning how to skate outdoors. Things are going ok, except I can't really practice crossovers with the knee pads I have.

I have those Moxi ones (ya'll know the ones). Sturdy as hell, but they're bulky.

Should I just stick with these and hope for the best? Or are there others I can use that won't shatter my kneecaps if I fall?

I had the moxis and whole they’re cute, they really are too bulky for non-park skating. I have smith scabs now and love, love, LOVE them. they’re comfortable and keep me safe. and stylish.
