Comments: Comments:I bought this girdle for its look and price. After I received it though I thought it was better than the price although you have to buy a shell because there is a hole right in the center of it. This girdle has helped me improve my game and it's very adjustable. You can adjust the waist and the thigh guards. With the girdle tighter to my body it feels almost weightless. It takes a few days to get used to but after that you start to get used to it and can play at your peak performance.
