Wiz leather sliders are supposed to be very hard wearing, but can be a bit grabby so I'm led to believe. :dontknow:

Wiz leather are awesome.  They almost rip your leg of when they hit the deck so instead of planting your knee and pushing yourself wide you let them just skim the tarmac. I have done 8 track days on the same set and i think they will do another 8 easy  :icon_thumleft:

mr K seems to have given me 50hp to much!!! but i think i can manage. O K maybe with a bit  more practice !!

Me too.

They aren't great on the road but on the track I prefer the greater feedback, also iv'e lost sliders before on track and not realised, then had an oh shit moment as I'm destroying my leathers.

Theres no chance of that with the leather ones though..................... :icon_thumright:

The Alpinestars ones that come with the suits/pants seem soft but they used to do a harder compound slider, don't know if they still do.

R&G are the ones for me  :icon_thumleft:
