The rigid construction is built to handle repeated gate contact while maintaining consistent performance across changing temperatures. GATE GLIDE™ GATE GLIDE™ incorporates low-friction additives into the protective shell to reduce drag during gate contact. The smoother surface allows gates to deflect and move across the arm guard efficiently for fast, consistent gate clearing. EVA Foam Padding EVA foam lines the inside of the guards to provide cushioning between the rigid shell and the forearm. The padding also helps stabilize the guards for a comfortable, consistent fit throughout ski race training and competition.
