Do wrist guards help with skating?

Yes. Wrist guards with support splints help protect against sprains and impact when you put your hands out to break a fall, a common skate injury.

Should beginners wear wrist guards?

They are a smart choice for beginners, who are more likely to fall and instinctively catch themselves with their hands.

How should wrist guards fit?

Wrist guards should fit snugly with the splint supporting the wrist, secure but not cutting off circulation. Check the sizing guide.

What other protection should I wear?

Pair wrist guards with knee pads, elbow pads and a helmet for full protection.
