Ice Skating Wrist Guards

Do Ice Skaters Use Wrist Guards?

Wrist guards for ice skating are a crucial safety item for skaters of all ages while on the ice. Falling often leads skaters to instinctively use their hands for support, and wrist guards help to absorb much of the impact. Not only do they help prevent injury, but they also give you added confidence while skating.

Typically, wrist guards for ice and figure skating feature a strong plastic splint shaped to stabilise the wrist. The remaining materials of the wrist guard are soft and protect your skin from the ice's surface. Selecting the proper size involves measuring the circumference of your wrist or hand, which varies with different models.

Wrist guards, like many types of skating protection, are versatile and can be utilised for activities like skating and skateboarding, among other sports. To explore our comprehensive range of ice skating pads and helmets, please visit Ice Skate Protection.
