5 comments about KneedIT Knee Brace.
- The knee-support function of this product is OK. However, the material from which the strap that goes behind your knee is so rigid and rough that it tears up my skin. I must wear it over my pants leg. I've given up wearing it for this reason.
- I'm a ballroom dancer and almost 70 years old. I've had 5 scope surgeries, but none sucsessful. I've tried all kinds of knee bands, but not much help. A friend showed me what she uses and I liked the looks of it, so I ordered one. It seems to help to a point, but if I over-do it, the pain returns. Worth the money for the relief I get.
- Wonderful product - proforms as advestized. Knee pain and disconfort associated with workouts no longer exists. Very helpful.
- The product works well. Having had six surgeries on my two knees, the product keeps my knees supported while i walk long distances or jog. Basically very comfortable to wear as well.
- I have suffered on and off from knee pain when running for a few years now. It seems to act up most when training for marathons. I have tried a few different knee straps to treat the problem - ChoPat, Mueller, etc. This one is the worst. I liked the idea of the V-shaped rubberized brace that can help your knee track more accurately. The problem with this brace is that the strap has no elastic. It is single piece of velcro and has no stretch. Thus it is impossible to put it on correctly. You have to make it either too tight or too loose

5 comments about Tachikara PORTA-SCORE Portable Flip Scoreboard..
- It's great, easy to use, very durable and works perfect. It was delivered in a very timely manner in excellent condition.
- I purchased this item for my nephew's lacrosse team because they didn't have a scoreboard at their games. When I asked about the score after one game, no one I spoke with was 100% sure. The good points are that this item arrived in a very timely manner, and it did serve the purpose of keeping up with the score. The red and blue colors, coincidentally, even matched the team's colors. However, I should have reviewed the dimensions better because it was a bit smaller than I would have liked. It also could have been sturdier ( it had to be leaned against a gate for more support). Overall, I was pleased with this purchase because it served its purpose and the price was right.
- This score board was perfect for our needs. It folds flat and is easy to transport and store. The numbers were larger than I thought they would be and are easily seen from across the field. Ordering was easy and they came quickly. The only downside is when is is windy, the numbers flap around.
- For indoor sports, this scoreboard will do the job. However, for outdoor sports where it is windy forget about it. The numbers flap around in the wind which causes the score to change itself and soon no one knows the real score.
- The Porta-Score was very effective and easy to read. Plastic numbers stuck together making it necessary to use two hands to turn.

5 comments about Cliff Keen Wraptor Wrestling Knee Pad.
- This knee wrestling pad protects and allows free movement. The only negative side is that the stitches on the front pad were coming out, so we had to fix it (sewing it by hand). But otherwise, very soft, flexible and protects a lot.
- I just had knee surgery & the knee surgergon recommend me to get a knee pad like the wrestlers or UFC wears. I saw this & I love it. I would recommend to everyone who have any problems with their knees.
- The best part of this pads is that they do not slide down and stay on my knee throughout the whole judo session
The only problem with them is that after almost 4 month of extensive use (I sweet a lot and workout about 3-4 times a week) I have noticed that the ventilation wholes on the back have started to tear apart. So I am buying another pair just in case.
- After a knee injury at a Judo tournament sidelined me, I began looking for a knee pad I could wear daily to protect my healing knee from unexpected falls, as well as keep it warm and supported. This knee pad does it all. My knee is healed, and I still wear this knee pad during Judo practice, tournaments, and anything that presents a risk of re injuring my knee.It is light, comfortable, low-profile(i routinely wear it under street clothes), and stays in place. I even wore it while surfing and it didn't budge. I cannot recommend this pad enough. 5/5
- Using for judo and bjj (go and nogi). THey stay on fairly well, and provide substantial padding. Jury still out on how durable they are

5 comments about Ultrak Jumbo Digit Single Time.
- It's a good product. It is manufactured to beep when entering the amount of time. That might not be necessary for everyone.
- After purchasing several timers from other manufactuers (namely Taylor and Polder) that I was very dissapointed with due to poor quality, odd features (such as random beeps before the set time was reached) and lack of durability for some components (namely, the displays), I finally stumbled across this item. In short, I wish I had found it first. It is a solid little unit, with a nice display, no random beeps that occur before the countdown is finished, and comes at a reasonable price. Also, the alarm is loud, but not too loud for my taste.
To make a long story short...this one has met my needs quite well.
- Great timer! Easy to use and loud enough to hear. So glad that I found it!
- I purchased this Timer / clock and it stopped working after a few hours. I had a second one shipped to me and it worked exactly 1 minute before it stopped working. Do NOT buy this item.
- I have used other timers in my classroom with much better results. This is only a timer, so it lacks diversity. It is also not very sturdy. It was knocked off of the whiteboard one time and stopped functioning. Other timers I have purchased have lasted through much more abuse. Will not purchase again.

4 comments about Cliff Keen Twister Headgear.
- Unlike some other ear guards, like the old clam shells, that basically just press against your ear to immobilize it; these ear guards have a little pocket for your ear to go into and roam freely. This makes it much more comfortable.
The picture makes it look like they may be a little too thick and interfere with squeezing your head through tight places, but I've found them to be no worse than any other ear guards in that respect.
The straps are nylon with velco which I have found to be just as secure as the plastic kind, but a little more comfy.
All in all a very good product.
- My son and daughter loves this headgear...I like all the colors it comes in and you never have a problem with the strap over the eyes. Or we haven't.
I think it's a little big for a 5-6 year old and doesn't really adjust to fit as well as I would like it to (we had a problem with it this past weekend slipping to the side and not being able to make it tight enough)....better for the 7 and up, i would think. It sturdy and very cushioned.
- This is the best headgear my son has ever used. Coverage is good, fit is perfect. I would never use any other
- good quality product, although the velcro chin strap is starting to wear out already. Very lightweight but stong w/ear protection and not painful or cumbersome to wear. Shipped promptly.

3 comments about ASICS Men's Split Second 7 Wrestling Shoe.
- my 14 year old loves the split sole wrestling shoe. Came in as promised. Best price Ive seen this shoe.Would buy again.
- BEWARE: Shoes advertised are with a specified WIDTH of "D", BUT the shoes I received were without a "D" on the box label nor on the label of the shoes. My son's foot size for regular street shoes are 11 1/2 wide, not too wide but a "D" width, he usually fits a regular size 12. So, I thought my ordered size 12 "D" would be fine. Most wrestling shoes are sized as regular street shoes, BUT not these. A wide footed Hobbit from the shire couldn't fit into these suppossedly "D" width shopes. Either the web advertisement should not include the "D" widths and simply list the show size number only or state that the shoes are narrow and NOT FOR HOBBITS.
- The wrestling shoes are beautiful! My son loves them. Service was quick and excellent. Thank you for a wonderful gift!

- These shoes are perfect for the gym and provide a comfortable fit. A must have for anyone serious about the gym!
- This is a very good shoe. It features a velcroe shoelace hider that comes in handy during a match.
- I wear this shoe for Kung Fu and it does very well. Not a strong heel support shoe, but nonetheless perfect for kicking, falling, and running on the mats. Very comfortable but be careful. My size is really a men's 10 1/4 EE. The 10 1/2 is a bit tight in the evening. Feet swell at night. Still I really like this shoe and have received many compliments on it's appearance in black. It was delivered free in 5 days.
- My son needed new wrestling shoes in a hurry. I was able to log in to Amazon, find a quality pair of shoes at a reasonable price, and received them in time for his next match. Another great shopping experience at Amazon!

5 comments about Cliff Keen Tornado Wrestling Headgear.
- This head gear is adjustable to a certain extent. The strap on the tops covering the head, can go over to your head onto your face if it slides down. Which it causes burns or rub marks which I had very often in my matches. The strap across the chin and feel like it chokes you if you dont adjust it right, without having the chin tight though, the entire headgear will not fit to right.
- This is really nice headgear. It doesn't slip, and is comfortable to wear.
My cauliflower ear problems are a thing of the past!
That said, there is one design flaw on this product. The Velcro straps on the top of the headgear tend to scratch up my partners up during free-training.
Other then that, this thing rocks!
- I had this ear guard for a few months and I have used several other (cheaper) ear guards. I think for wrestling, this ear guard is as good as it gets. It is really light and fits very comfortably. Another reviewer stated that it was a bit tight but I cannot imagine how that is possible because you can adjust all aspects of the guard. You can simply wipe it clean after use and it does not smell.
One thing, however, is that the ear part sticks out of the rest of the gear rather abruptly instead of rising gradually. This has presented me with some issues because it provides a handle that the opponent can hold onto. I discovered this ear guard made it a bit more difficult for me to squeeze out of guilotine or Peruvian necktie variety chocks compared to other ear guards when the opponent clamps down with the elbow. So I am taking one star off.
In short, it has a minor flaw for submission grapplers. Otherwise, I think it is pretty much perfect.
- I was looking for a headgear that would stay in place for my BJJ class. Got this one and I am very pleased with it. It stays put as it should, it is pretty comfortable and definitely does its job of protecting your ears. I was starting to get sore ears after rolling (with no headgear) but now that's history.
- My son has been using this headgear exclusively for the last 6 years. He sees so many wrestlers with headgear "problems" and has never understood why they don't go with this one. It has never failed him and it fits great! It doesn't slide around. I aksed my son for a quote and he said, "It's the best headgear ever in the history of headgear!"
