REI Members get back an estimated $ 4.00 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Black Diamond Teleneesis Kneepads:

These knee pads were probably designed for telemark skiers in mind. However, I've been using them for ice climbing. There are times when you kick poorly to set your crampons into the ice and instead bang your knee into the ice; and these knee pads have protected my knee caps from those mindless mistakes. Also these knee pads protects your expensive Gore-Tex shell pants from abrasion. Usually, the knee portion of your pants where the second most worn out place. So, these knee pads protects your investments (your knee caps and your pants).

Great Knee Protection for Ice Climbing

Comments about Black Diamond Teleneesis Kneepads:

I purchased these a couple of years ago to protect a knee cap that had been fractured when I did a knee drop on a knife edge rock. I use them for ice climbing and they have more than once saved me from banged up knees. A few of my ice climbing buddies thought they were silly until they bashed a knee.

Comments about Black Diamond Teleneesis Kneepads:

I have had these knee pads for several years, they are durable and comfortable. I telemark ski and I trust my knees to the pads after my buddy hit a hidden stump at alta. I posted a pic of what the stump did to the BD pad. The impact sent him head over heels, but there was no injury to his knee. Unlike other pads, these are very comfortable and stay in place.

Comments about Black Diamond Teleneesis Kneepads:

Great fit. Stay up all day with minor adjustments. I took a ski off one after the ski shot up from a snow pile - no pain at all. Keep your knees warm, too.
