I am genuinely impressed with the quality of this product. The protective layer is very sturdy and stood up to heavy play from my son, and the padding seems comfortable to wear. The extra bump on the underside of the wrist pad feels to me like it would easily prevent a sprained wrist! Everything was easy to put on and take off.Unfortunately, my kids are a little too small to use it for its intended purpose. Although their legs measure within the sizing guide, the size of the knee cap makes it more appropriate for a on older child (my best guess is 7+ years old). Mine are 3 and 5 years old, and when both the elbow and wrist pads, their entire forearm is covered, making it cumbersome to ride a bike. I am a small adult, with small wrists, and while the size medium would fit me better, I can make the size small work for me.

Finally got to wear these when I took my granddaughter rollerskating. Fit well and comfy.

I roller skate and I fall a lot and these things have saved my hands so much! Before I got them my hand got so badly scratched up that it hurt to write and not they don’t thanks to these

Durable hook-and-loop straps with excellent stitching (prior products from other companies have fallen apart with limited use). Easy for my daughter to put on one-handed and strong enough to catch and support her falls as she learns to roller skate.

Was fortunately wearing these when I wiped out HARD on my onewheel. They took the hit and I came out a lot better than I would’ve been, but they got pretty destroyed in the process and seems you have to just get a new pair. I don’t mind too much because it did its job well

Box was packed and sealed just as you would want. Product comes with the name of the person who filled the order and had the correct instructions. Made in America as far as I can see, very professional. I would buy any product from such a company. Good for my Grandaughter......

The Elos wrist guards are comfortable and I like the protection the shock absorbers provide. They are very stout and will save your wrists if one tries to catch yourself when falling.

Pros:- They're very easy to put on and take off- The three straps make them feel secure and snugCons:- The brace sewn into the fabric is made of a fairly hard plastic, but bends - making me wonder how effective they'll be with a body's weight pressing down on them- The fingers are entirely exposed, so there's potential of breaking your fingers on a landing

I have a damaged wrist that has made doing some weight exercises impossible.Using one of these on the affected hand I've been able to start doing weight bearing upper body exercises again and it's almost totally eliminated the stress on the wrist and therefore the pain.I do have to be careful not to overdo it, but previously I couldn't do any kind of exercise involving the wrist for about 9 or 10 months.I don't use them for anything to do with skateboarding and never will. But for giving that extra support and protection to my wrist they have been a godsend.

My daughter uses these for scooting on the skate park ramps and I tried them initially scooting on the ramps to test them out but they are too small for me.I got them with my daughter in mind so ordered a small size, I have bigger than normal hands and the velcro only just reaches around so I would need a large. All my gloves have to be extra large to fit so I would need large on these.They work really well and cover my daughter's hand better than mine, she is 8 and they are a bit big really for her but it covers her hand more so she is happy. The impact shock absorbing bar works well but feels very odd when you fall, and I did fall, and you get a loud slap sound but it does take the initial shock out of it and stops the impact of the ground hitting your palm which was good.Comfy to wear, there were no complaints and it has turned the daredevil notch up a bit.My only criticism would be that we had to guess which size to get, it could do with a child/adult size guide.

I ordered the M size and the wrist guards fit my arm and palm alright.Materials:Shock-resistant ABS splint coversBreathable fabricImpressions:Large Velcro on the upper side with three straps, which is perfect for fast strapping.Well sawn, all the threads are very precisely sawn without any of them sticking out.The wrist guard protector is positioned at your palm and is made from thick plastic/rubber composite that bends easily but doesn't stretch at all. The protector gives about 2-5 cm threshold so that whenever you fall and hit your arm, it will only slightly bend and fully take the pressure.Remarks:They feel a bit stiff and you have to get used to the feeling of having a large protector around your arms and wrists. I do hope that in the future they can make smaller and lighter protectors which won't be as noticeable.However material and design wise they are perfect and work as expected. It's well worth investing in such protectors if you're not feeling confident in your sports. I will be using them when I'm snowboarding soon enough and can't wait. I've always worried that I might damage my hands when falling as I couldn't find any suitable protectors. Luckily these fit under my jacket sleeves.

I found these wrist guards to do the job they were meant to do, keeping the wrist from bending backwards or forwards, by splinting the front and rear of the wrist (the palm plastic splint is removable, btw) but the supports themselves aren't that comfortable.When worn tight the splint on the back of the hand presses into the back of the wrist, though it does provide support in flexing the wrist sideways. There isn't much padding, but this maybe expected, given the nature of the splint. If you have big hands, the thumbhole may be a little small.In practice, the rounded palm support will distribute force away from the wrist joint towards the forearm and hand, absorbing the impact somewhat.Nevertheless, I wish I had a pair of these when I was learning to rollerskate, where I spent a lot of time nursing sore wrists.

At £16.49 I'm actually quite happy 😊, they seem very well made, nice stitching and the metal bars are absolutely solid!It's been quite a long time since I last wore anything like this but since I'm trying to become more active lately I decided to pursue some of my old activities and honestly these gloves didn't let me down at all, I was falling down like a drunkard in a stupor! 🤣They took out the vast majority of the hits, although it did make a loud slapping noise each time, so much so that several people came to investigate the scene of the crime! 🤣All in all they're fantastic and I couldn't be happier, in fact I might not have bothered to have as much fun as I did had I not been given the opportunity to review these so I'm utterly grateful for that!I can absolutely recommend these! Well worth every penny! Thank you! 😊👍 ♥ 🤗(My apologies too, I'm having an issue with my phone's camera so at the moment I can't take pictures of my products but as soon as I've resolved the issue I'll add pictures 😊👍 ♥)
