Though the Shock Sleeve Pro Elbow Gasket by Ennui may not offer the same degree of protection as a heavily padded, hard-cap guard, it compensates for this by enabling unrestricted movement during action sports.
A stretchable, knitted cotton sleeve is enhanced internally with silicone strips to avert slippage, providing a snug fit and keeping the pads securely in position at all times. It is equipped with the distinctively developed material - SPC - conceived through the collaboration of the Ennui/Powerslide development team and MyFit, renowned for crafting skate liners for Powerslide.
This material is designed not only to absorb impact force but also to distribute it across the structure - thus significantly reducing the impact on your joints. The Pro version boasts a Kevlar coating that resists abrasion, offering greater flexibility and comfort compared to the non-pro version, while allowing for even freer movement.
An evident advantage of this soft-shell protection is its lightweight nature and its capability to be worn underneath everyday clothing - enabling you to maintain style while being fully safeguarded.
In addition to crash protection, the pro version guards against slides with its highly abrasion-resistant Aramid fibre cover. It is a wise choice for downhill longboarders and speed skaters. The pro model is even slightly lighter than the non-pro version, making its weight almost negligible.
