Elbow Pads
What are Elbow Pads and What Do They Do?
Elbow pads are essential for anyone hitting the skatepark or street scene. They are a form of protective gear that fits snugly around your elbows, often made with durable foam and capped with plastic to absorb impact. Elbow pads protect your elbows from scrapes, bruises, and serious injuries if you take a fall while skating, scootering, or biking. Given that falls on the elbows are common when attempting tricks, wearing elbow pads is highly recommended to keep yourself safe, amongst all other necessary safety equipment.
Elbow pads are a key part of your protective gear. They cushion you from hard impacts, helping you avoid painful injuries. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned rider, investing in a reliable pair of elbow pads is a smart choice for anyone looking to stay safe while pushing their limits.
CORE Street Elbow Pads
At CORE, we design some of the best elbow pads in the game. Our Street Elbow Pads are crafted with top-notch EVA foam that moulds comfortably to your elbow, giving you both the comfort you need for all-day sessions and the confidence to go big knowing you're protected. We also offer various pad sets that include knee and elbow pads, so you can fully gear up with ease.
What Size Elbow Pads Should I Buy?
Getting the correct size is crucial for effective protection. Your elbow pads should fit snugly without restricting movement. If they’re too tight, they'll be uncomfortable and limit mobility. If they slide down or shift around, they're likely too big.
To find the perfect fit, follow these steps:
- Use a soft measuring tape to measure around your arm about 15cm above and 10cm below the elbow joint.
- Once you have these measurements, refer to our size guide to select your size.
If you don’t have a measuring tape, use a piece of string and measure it against a ruler.
