Perhaps they redesigned/updated them... hopefully! They were pretty bad when we used them... left significant red marks from irritation and were just so hot. But when I was preparing to send them back, I chatted with the one of the product managers for quite some time about what I though was wrong and how I thought they could be improved. Maybe they listened?
And ya, the G-forms aren't super protective, but they're better than nothing. My now 10 year olds (wow time flies!!) have moved beyond the constant crashing grom stage and just need something that will protect their elbows from the very odd (hopefully) unplanned dismount. They've also reached the point where "coolness" is starting to take over as the dominant deciding factor in what they wear!
