A question on briefs

[supertrucker212]

I want to get power briefs. I've never used them before. I looked at Inzer's and Metal's. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

spot on
Only difference is if they're long or short briefs and even then it doesn't matter much.

Are you looking for some light hip support or something heavier? Metals are better quality and you have more options. Inzers are good for under a suit or for lighter support.

I prefer the Ace Metal brief over the predators. The legs are a little to long for my liking. The Ace are thick, and provide a lot or protection to your hips.

Also base your decision on your squat stance, medium, wide, or narrow. The Ace are for wide squats, I use mine for sumo deads aswell. I tried them for conventional pulling and it wasn't happening due to the cut of the brief.

I am looking to wear them under a suit. I would like to compete next year '12 and the gear is the most confusing part. After looking at the Metal ace briefs I could see why you couldn't pull convential with them. In competition I would pull sumo, I'm 5'4 so I'm a little stronger in that stance and my squat stance is medium so I shouldn't have a problem there.

If you are going to compete, what federation?

apf, spf, usapl? ...

this will help you decide what kind of gear, specific to how many ply, briefs, etc..

once you know that.. take into consideration your build, style of squat, etc..


ace pro's are great for wiide squatters, they are stout as hell too.. not the best "beginner brief" ..

I fuckin love em..

what fed?
waht's your build? height/weight.
stance?
what suit do you use?

Go to powerwatch. They have a list of people advertising. Titan briefs or suits are very good. You can go to Titans web site or Ken Anderson. He knows his stuff about the equipment. If your new to the sport, then you will end up spending a lot of money over time trying all the types of gear, before you hit on a combo that works for you, and is allowed in the federation your competing in. Good luck.
