REKD Protection
Product Description
REKD Energy Freedom Wrist Guards - Black, L/XL Size (Fits 17cm - 23cm Wrist Circumference)
Experience uncompromised manual dexterity alongside elite joint safety with the REKD Energy Freedom Wrist Guards. Meticulously designed for action sports athletes who find traditional, rigid dual-splint wrist protectors too bulky or restrictive, the Freedom series redefines lower-arm protection. This innovative brace mimics the streamlined benefits of a flexible athletic wrap while delivering the heavy-duty impact defense of a standard guard. It is the perfect safety solution for street, park, and winter sports disciplines—such as skateboarding, roller derby, aggressive scooter riding, and snowboarding—where maintaining natural joint articulation is crucial for performance.
The structural breakthrough of the Freedom wrist guard lies in its minimalist, plate-free architecture. Instead of relying on rigid plastic caps that restrict your movement and prevent hand closures, REKD equips the brace with a slim, high-performance strip of REKD Energy Impact Foam. In its static state, this advanced non-Newtonian material remains soft and completely flexible, contouring dynamically to your wrist to support natural movements, grabs, and technical tricks. Upon a sudden ground collision, the hybrid molecules instantly lock together to create a solid defensive layer that disperses up to 75% more impact energy compared to standard high-density foam inserts, protecting vulnerable bones and ligaments from severe shock.
By eliminating the bulkiness typical of old-school guards, this innovative design allows you to easily handle objects, allowing street and park riders to confidently grab rails, copings, obstacles, and ledges mid-air. Engineered to function as a highly therapeutic, supportive brace, it stabilizes your hand in a neutral and biomechanically sound position. This targeted alignment actively helps prevent muscular fatigue during extended training sessions, offers noticeable pain relief, and reduces joint inflammation caused by repetitive vibration. The wide wrap-around strap configuration features a heavy-duty hook-and-loop closure that provides unlimited placement, allowing you to fine-tune the tension for a custom, personalized, and comfortable fit.
Sold as a complete pair to guarantee uniform, low-profile protection for both hands, these stealthy matte black guards are finished with crisp REKD Energy branded detailing. Whether you are dropping into concrete bowls, logging park laps, or dialing in technical street lines, the Freedom series lets you ride uninhibited. Refer to the specific L/XL sizing dimensions below to secure your perfect, slip-free wrist fitment.
