Product description

About this product

Pads Sports Wrist Guard – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Dar es Salaam.

A six-piece protective set for children – knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards – for skating, skateboarding, scootering and cycling.

The wrist guards are the part that earns the purchase. Wrist injuries are far and away the commonest injury in skating and skateboarding, and the reason is simple physiology: the instinct in any fall is to put your hands out, and the whole force of the fall arrives at one small joint. A wrist guard puts a rigid splint along the palm so that force spreads up the forearm instead of concentrating on the wrist.

Knee and elbow pads do a less dramatic job but a more frequent one. Most falls in learning are low-speed slides onto a knee or an elbow, and a hard shell over foam turns what would be a bad graze into nothing at all. That matters for whether a child gets back up and carries on, which is most of learning.

The practical advice is to put it all on from the first session, before any falls have happened. Gear introduced after a bad fall gets argued about; gear that was always part of skating does not.

This set does not include a helmet, which is the one thing it cannot replace. We sell helmets separately – ask us and we will size one against the child.

Questions

Good to know

Which piece matters most?

The wrist guards, without question. Wrist injuries are the commonest skating and skateboarding injury by a wide margin, because the instinct in any fall is to put your hands out. A wrist guard puts a rigid splint along the palm so the force spreads rather than concentrating on the joint.

How should pads fit?

Snug enough not to rotate when the child moves, loose enough not to restrict circulation. A knee pad that slides round the leg on impact is a pad that was not there. Check the straps every session - children pull them looser as the day goes on.

Do they need a helmet as well?

Yes, and it is the one piece this set does not replace. Pads prevent grazes and fractures; a helmet is about the head. We sell helmets separately - ask us and we will size one against the child.

Will a child actually wear them?

Far more readily if they go on from the very first session, before any falls. Protective gear introduced after a bad fall gets negotiated over; gear that was always part of skating does not. Buy it at the same time as the skates.

How do I keep them from smelling in this heat?

Take them out of the bag rather than leaving them in it, and let them air properly after every session. Hand-wash the straps and shells with mild soap every few weeks and dry them out of direct sun. Sweat-soaked padding in Dar humidity turns unpleasant quickly.

Do pads wear out?

The shells scuff and eventually crack, and the straps lose their grip - both are reasons to replace. A cracked shell no longer spreads impact, which is its only job. Check them at the start of each season.

What surfaces are safest to learn on?

Flat, smooth and closed to traffic. A compound driveway, an empty car park at the weekend or a school hall. Broken road surfaces cause the falls that the pads then have to deal with.

Do you deliver in Dar es Salaam?

Yes. We deliver across Dar es Salaam and send nationwide to Arusha, Moshi, Mwanza, Dodoma, Zanzibar and beyond by courier. Call or WhatsApp us if you need a same-day drop in the city.
