After wearing kneepads while teaching at Earthdance this past weekend, I began to wonder two things about them.

Do kneepads interfere with the patella tracking in the knee joint?

Which way do people wear kneepads - felt inside or out? curved line up or down?

I wear them with the felt inside. I think there is less wear on the felt that way, and with the curve up so that there is more felt in contact with the ground.

    don't know about kneecap tracking, interesting question.

    i used to wear them the way you do, sometimes I still do. but I have shifted to felt out-curve down as they seem to fit better that way. The felt does not appear to be wearing out any quicker than it used to. Someone at burning man looked at me very quissically as I put them on, and asked why to you wear your kneepads inside out and upside down......
