I can't be happier with the results of the Azzpad during my latest snowboarding trip!
I am a newbie and in December bruised or fractured an already damaged tailbone. I attempted to another go in early January and left the mountain after one run, in tears from pain. Well, we wanted one more try before the season ended so I ordered and expedited the Azzpad.
I take some pretty hard falls and barely felt a thing with the Azzpad on. It sits in just the right area, with ample support (though you may not think so upon delivery!). This is truly a gem product. It removed the fear/hesitation in falling, made me more confident and secure and made the runs much more enjoyable.
Only drawback is the profile/size. I did buy a size up in pants in preparation, and it was needed. You will look like you are wearing a diaper and you will get some weird looks, but it is worth it. Because of its bulk, there is some regular readjustment needed once you get off the lift or take a spill. Push it back down on your bum and you're covered, but this can look funny to some observers! The velcro straps are no issue around the legs. I put my Azzpad on over my shorts and under by thermals so it stayed a little better. The front buckle did end up bruising my abdomen a little, but again, I fell a lot!
The bulk and need to adjust were the only reasons for a 4 versus 5 star.
If you want to enjoy your time on the mountain and not waste $$, get this product.
