Snowboard Protektor Flexmeter Wristprotector Single
The fracture of the wrist at snowoboard : Still to many wrist fractures are caused by snowboard falls each winter season throughout the world. The fracture is almost always located on the lower extreme part of the radius, just above the wrist joint. With its Hytrel (by Du Pont) protection, enables the hyperextension of the wrist and absorbs compression forces. Scientific studies has shown the effectiveness of Flexmeter in reducing the risk of wrist injuries in snowboarding. Wrist fractures have been diminished by 67% in a group of snowboarders wearing Flexmeter protectors, compare to a group wearing no protection. It does fit under most snowboard gloves.Freedom of movement:
wristprotector was designed to respect the anatomical shape of the wrist; it follows its shape and outline. It allows normal mobility of the wrist for ease of usage, as opposed to the protection commonly used by snowboarders, that are actually designed for in-line skating. The skate-type guards are often inappropriate and dangerous because they are too short, too stiff and they don’t protect the wrists. Fractures are more severe when wearing these devices.
For high risk sports:
For skate, EUC and Skeeler as well as other sports were wrist protection is a must have a look at our Flexmeter Plus D3O especially designed for freestyle snowboard. The way snowboarders fall is well known: it can be a hard landing on the heel of the hand. The wrist than goes into hyperextension and compression, resulting in a fracture of the distal radius. With Flexmeter 1 protection, the hands and fingers are precluded from being outstretched and are therefore not subject to reverse extension injury.
