dswalkington Great question...I don't know where to find them from. One thing I would recommend is wearing longer compression shorts from someone like Underarmour. Or if you're having issues with your knees getting cut up, maybe you're landing too much on your knees and not enough on your chest? I'm working on getting a layout video done but until I do, you should check out volleyball/baseball videos on Youtube that have players diving...they land on their chest with their body extended so their knees don't hit the ground until later on.Thanks,
Rob
I wear long-sleeve UnderArmor year round to protect my arms, specifically my elbows during dives, as the quality of the grass on our fields can frequently be described as steel wool. I find that UnderArmor's heat gear keeps me fairly comfortable despite playing in North Carolina during the summer. For legs, I've seen a lot of players wearing very tall soccer socks, or UnderArmor heat gear tight
Breakmark (www.breakmark.com) is another apparel company that's fairly new that caters specifically to ultimate. They're based out of the USA, and frequently make appearances at tournaments in the Northeast USA.

Do you recommend any elbow and knee sleeves. I find in the summer I do a lot of diving as my team isn't a high level group and there are a lot of under/overthrows that require full on diving. My wife is tired of my knees being all chewed up from the grass bleeding all over the sheets.
So any recommends with purchase locations/internet links?
