wrist guards
Joint-protecting gear
Wrist guards are protective gear worn around the wrists to prevent injury during physical activity.
They typically feature rigid splints or padding to stabilize the joint and absorb impact.
Skateboarders, rollerbladers, and snowboarders commonly wear them: I always put on my wrist guards before hitting the skate park.
Some versions are designed for repetitive strain rather than impact, supporting the wrist during activities like typing or weightlifting.
