Skate Pads Sets
3-Pack Skate Pads: Be Prepared for the Skate Park
Wearing skateboard pads is crucial for ensuring protection during your skating activities. They are just as vital as having a helmet and will help you prevent cuts, bruises, and significant injuries. While pads are a necessity for beginners, they are also advised for seasoned riders who take on riskier stunts.
Generally, a 3-pack skate pad set includes pads for your knees, elbows, and wrists. Opting for a complete skate pads set offers numerous advantages. Not only is it convenient to purchase, but the quality and size will also be consistent, providing a stylish and coordinated appearance. All you'll need is your helmet, and you’ll be set to skate.
Which Size Skateboard Pads Should I Choose?
When it comes to skate pads, aim for a snug, secure fit that isn’t overly tight. If you’re uncertain about the size you require, using a soft tape measure along with the product’s size chart will assist in finding the appropriate fit. Bear in mind, though, that many pads include Velcro straps, allowing you to adjust the fit as needed. There is a wide selection of pads available, whether hard shell or soft shell, so fit can also vary depending on the specific product.
Tips for Cleaning Skateboard Protective Gear
Regularly cleaning your skateboard pad set is beneficial for maintaining freshness and eliminating any unpleasant odours. Most pads are machine washable, but it's advisable to use the delicate setting. Add some detergent, and let the wash eliminate any smells.
To further minimise odours, allow your pads to air out after use, or consider investing in pads equipped with moisture ventilation.
