Sorry for the newbie question. I have a Shiv and my arms keep sliding back off the pads. I like to ride with my elbow right on the rear of the pad...not sure if this is good/correct. I wanted to see if there are any types of elbow “cups” that can be used instead of the standard, flat arm pad, thus keeping my arms from sliding. Thanks

You've got a few options available now:
Revolver:
https://www.revolverwheels.co.uk/...re-tribar-arm-rests/
https://www.revolverwheels.co.uk/...re-tribar-arm-rests/ (these ones just appear to be bigger versions of Revolver's normal mantis cups)
*having used these, they do work well but be very careful about using them, the carbon base is easily damaged
Alden Carbon:

Also these, which Nick says in the forum that they might be available for shipping November at the earliest:
Tririg:

Do the wattshop ones actually have a 'back plate' attached to them? Was my impression that they were open-back but had the ability to be angled...
I do not know, maybe Grant can answer.
