Is it okay to roll or fold the 18 x 18 Akton pads? I'd save on shipping if I were able to do so.

I seem to remember mine arrived in a bigger box, likely not folded much if at all.

But the skating safe pads are rolled in package I believe...

Both my Akton pads arrived folded in thirds :) (at two separate times)

Yep, you can.  I'd roll, personally.

Cool! Renatele, do you remember how big the box was? Did you order from Amazon?

CrossStroke

It's been awhile ... (5+ years?).  I think the box was just slightly longer than the pad is, and narrower.  I did not order from Amazon.

Sampaguita - Are you considering the Akton?  I have a pair of knee pads I made with a template drawn from my own SkatingSafe pads.  They are for sale.  Let me know if you are interested, and I'll post pix on the Trading Post forum here.
My glass is half full :)

Hi Sk8Dreams! I'm pretty set on getting the Bunheads knee pads, but will need the SkatingSafe pads for my hips and tailbone. :)
