BMX Elbow Pads

Do BMX Riders Use Elbow Pads?

BMX elbow pads are utilised by riders of all levels and styles. They are especially favoured among those who ride on dirt tracks, in skate parks, and on vert ramps, although numerous flatland riders opt to wear them for added protection and assurance. Elbows, being bony joints with numerous nerves, benefit greatly from proper padding, which can prevent both minor and serious injuries.

Every elbow pad in this category is crafted to resist impact while allowing you maximum freedom of movement. The materials in BMX elbow guards are designed with moisture-wicking properties, enabling your skin to breathe, making it possible to wear them comfortably throughout the day.

Decide Between Two Types of BMX Elbow Protection

BMX elbow pads with the traditional hard cap shell provide the topmost level of protection. Soft padding is in contact with the skin, while the hard cap is on the exterior. BMX pads lacking a hard cap are referred to as elbow gaskets. This soft padding does not offer as much protection, but it is significantly lighter and can be worn underneath your BMX Clothing. These also provide enhanced comfort and flexibility. These two similar forms are also available in BMX Knee Pads.

In addition to protecting elbows and knees, the lower legs are another area susceptible to injury when riding BMX. Explore the protection available for BMX Shin and Ankle Guards.
