    I modified a wave jacket so I could remove (or just move) the shoulder protection and removed the sleeves/pads from the elbows down. I've rarely worn the full setup, though. Spine protector and helmet are the regular pieces of armor.

    I didn't see the "pre-immunization" option for Harvey jumps.

    It depends on if I'm jumping something solid or not whether I wear full body armor, but I always wear a helmet and almost always wear knee pads.
