I saw at home depot, some foam tubes that fit perfectly inside PVC pipes.

Should i fill my PVC with the foam so that way it absorbs most of the impact instead of the PVC. Or just leave it empty? 

Here's a picture so you guys can get a better idea of what i'm saying.

leave it empty, its only pvc. if it breaks you can replace it for the price of a big mac meal.

or you could just fill it now so when it doesnt break later you'll have enough money to buy a big mac meal.    which is really good and i'm kinda hungry right now..

Yea that foam wouldn't do anything to keep the PVC from breaking.  If you are using little PVC pipes you will wear through them pretty fast anyways its not worth filling them.
