The Powerslide Race 2019 pads are designed for skaters who prefer low-profile protection instead of a bulky hard-shell construction. The flexible sleeve fits closely around the arm, while EVA padding and an abrasion-resistant Kevlar layer protect the most exposed area of the elbow.
Key Features
Low-Profile Design
The slim construction allows natural arm movement and remains comfortable during longer training sessions or competitive skating.
Impact Cushioning
A thin EVA foam layer helps absorb energy during a fall and cushions direct contact between the elbow and the ground.
Abrasion Resistance
The exposed area is covered with abrasion-resistant Kevlar to help protect both the pad and the elbow when sliding across rough surfaces.
Secure Sleeve Fit
The stretch sleeve is supported by wide anti-slip bands, helping the pad remain correctly positioned during skating and dynamic movement.
Breathable Back Panel
Mesh material on the back promotes airflow and improves comfort during intense sessions or skating in warm conditions.
Technologies and Construction
3mm EVA Padding
The 3mm EVA foam creates a lightweight cushioning layer without adding unnecessary bulk. It provides basic impact protection while preserving flexibility.
Abrasion-Resistant Kevlar
The Kevlar covering reinforces the area most likely to contact the ground. Its primary purpose is to improve resistance to scraping and material damage during a fall.
Stretch Sleeve Construction
The shell-free sleeve is easy to put on and adapts closely to the shape of the arm. A breathable mesh back helps release excess heat.
Who Are These Pads For?
These elbow pads are particularly suitable for speed, marathon and fitness skaters looking for discreet protection with maximum freedom of movement. They are designed for training and racing situations where low weight and abrasion resistance are priorities.
