I purchased this for my girlfriend for snowboarding. She didn't have proper snowboard pants which are normally a bit baggy. She had a more fitted pant and with compression shorts the bootyguard was hardly noticeable and completely obselete with her jacket. She said that the bootyguard made a huge difference and absorbed a lot of her falls. Fastens like a belt sits right at lower back(above belt line) to tailbone area. So it covers good area She was in a great deal of pain toward the end of the day but she said she would not of made it that Long if it wasn't for this product. And as she progressed she fell less and less. She will use this like training wheels. Eventually she won't even need it ;) taking it one season at a time! Hope this helps
