Best Ear Guard

[Budo_Jake]

None, just keep draining. Headgear is ok for protecting your ears, but it crushes all your training partners ears... just my two cents.

I think this is why a lot of guys liked the brute shockwave earguards. They are really soft.
I HATE rolling with dudes that have hard plastic ones. There's one brand -don't remember which- where it had sharp ridges all over. That will tear up your partners ears.

Whats up Scott! Happy Holidays... I just RECENTLY began wearing headgear again because I've bumped my lobes up to 0g plugs. The only adverse effect I've experienced, of late, is getting my head stuck in spots I REALLY dont want to be stuck in in turnabout it makes your game sharper

My vote. CK F5 Tornado

I've been using CK Tornadoes for about 6 months. They hold up well and work just fine for me. I haven't gotten any complaints from training partners yet.

+1 for the Cliff Keen Tornado

Does anybody know where you can get the brute shockwave's at?

Thanks for all the tips so far! I just drained and .5 cc today w/out any help. So now that I know it really isn't that big deal, I will probably just wear head protection for a week or so until the ear fills a bit better.

A quick tip (although ya'll probably know this already), hitting the ear at a big angle with the needle AND icing it well before you sterilize makes it sooooooo much easier.

Your prob gonna need to keep draining it for a few weeks before it stops filling up. I usually let it go for 2, drain it...let it fill up nice and big for 2, and repeat till it stops. Also, do it rt before bed n wrap your head w that ear in it nice n snug...the pressure will help keep it flat n slow the bleeding inside

also after you drain it maintain manual pressure for a minute or so, then wrap it up.
