Review on Ultimate Protection: Triple Eight πŸ›Ή Wristsaver Wrist Guards for Skateboarding (1 Pair) by Aaron Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Triple 8 Wristsaver II - strong wrist protector

I bought the wrist protector together with Onewheel. I am very happy. I read the reviews that they run small so I took a size up. I'm glad I did. I'm 5'9" with medium sized hands and the large fits perfectly. I've been using them for over a month and I'm very happy with the purchase. They are very well made (not cheap at all) and very durable. All materials and Seams are tight. I also like the design of the splints that protect the wrist and palm. The palmar sprint is slightly curved, which gives me a secure feeling. If I fall, I will be very happy to wear them. What "easy to wear" As far as undressing' goes, that's right. Basically you have to fully undo the straps and then slip them on and off. Retighten them and boom - forward. Pretty basic. 5 star product for price and quality. There are no cons. - -- Updated 4/24/2021 --- It's been about 2 years since I bought these bracelets After a couple of nasty falls I'm sticking with my 5 star rating I highly recommend them I was with one fall in particular my OneWheel traveling at about 18 mph when it shut down for no reason. (At least that's what I told my wife). One way or another I was thrown into the air and I just didn't have time to get up in time. Luckily, I landed right on top of my knee pads and these Triple 8 Wristaver II pads. Wow. I slipped about 5 feet on the ugly asphalt. What should have been a serious accident on the road or possibly worse, instead I just jumped up and looked around to see if anyone had seen my nasty accident. I got lucky, but these wrist guards "saved" me.
