Skating safety gear
Wristguards are protective gear worn around the wrists to prevent injury.
Skaters and skateboarders wear rigid wristguards to protect against fractures during falls.
Athletes in sports like volleyball wear padded wristguards to cushion impacts.
Compression wristguards support the joint during repetitive motions: I wear wristguards when typing to ease my carpal tunnel.
