Joe rocket mesh jackets have also served me well. I've slid about 30 foot on asphalt, the jacket did it's job.
for gloves I have tested my technics a couple times. they have held up very good. I've got a pair of MotoGP that I like and a pair of Icon TIMax. I like the Icon's but one hand doesn't feel quite right. I've worn others that both felt good.

Yep,Icon's gloves have historically had severe qc problems,as in on glove being visibly larger than the other,etc.
