Hi guys. Sorry if there's already a topic like this, but I decided to make this one because B&M clamshells seem to be a very divisive restraint in the community and I would be interested to hear some of your opinions on them.
As for my opinion on them; I personally love them! They're currently my favourite sort of restraint, and I personally found them so comfortable on Mako in August 2016! I don't know whether the fact I was around 5'0 when I last rode Mako and I'm now 5'8 would change anything, but I seem to remember absolutely adoring the B&M clamshells! I personally adore them because I find them to be so roomy, and they didn't cause any pain to any part of my body! Although I suppose I would say I'm not particularly big anywhere, if you get what I mean.
However, I know of some people who hate them. A lot of people with larger thighs seem to hate them, and I know that Andy Rumney from Coaster Crazy has previously said that he hates them.
I'd be interested to see what you guys think to them!
