bought for snowboarding

I looked for a protector pants for snowboarding, but primarily to the ass from the cold while sitting in the snow to protect.
As I drive Alpin / cross-board and no freestyle and'm out of the wild years, I'm mostly just in the snow when I want it, is to take a breather or waiting for others. The trousers are best suited for this purpose, isolating a bit like if one pushes gloves. I can not judge to what extent be absorbed by falls.
Comfort is is great, workmanship and durability 2-3. Have me on the basis of other reviews ordered M (183/77). However, this was at the beginning already very very closely. Had to be very careful that at the mesh-like material nix plan. Then went with each use, but better. I can not say how the size L would sit, can only recommend to anyone who is not sure to order now 2 sizes and even try.
