Description
Although the Shock Sleeve Pro Elbow Gasket by Ennui doesn't offer the same degree of protection as a thickly padded, hard-cap protector, it compensates with the freedom of movement it provides during your action sport.
An expandable knitted cotton sleeve is equipped internally with silicone strips to prevent slipping, guarantee a snug fit, and ensure the pads remain in place consistently. It is outfitted with a uniquely devised material - SPC - a collaborative innovation from the development team at Ennui/Powerslide and the specialists at MyFit, who produce skate liners for Powerslide.
This material not only absorbs the impact force but also assists in dispersing it throughout the structure, ensuring your joints experience minimal impact. The Pro version boasts an abrasion-resistant Kevlar coating, providing more flexible comfort and protection compared to the non-pro version, allowing you even greater freedom of movement.
A distinct advantage of this soft-shell protection is its lightweight nature, alongside the ability to shield you while being discreetly worn under your normal attire - enabling you to maintain a stylish appearance while remaining fully protected.
Aside from crash protection, the pro version also offers glide protection with its highly abrasion-resistant Aramid fibre cover. It's an intelligent choice for downhill longboarders and speed skaters. The pro model is also marginally lighter than the non-pro version, weighing almost nothing.

"A great compliment to the matching Ennui Shock Sleeve Pro Knee Gasket. Competitors don’t come close." | |

"Fab elbow gasket. It did the job when I fell and landed on my arm. The sizing is odd. With the knee gaskets they fit tight according to my measuring, but the elbow gaskets are a lot looser. They still stay up though so I’m happy overall." | |

"Same as the knee pads, really comfortable and give that nice filling of freedom for you moves, it doesn't block you as a normal plastic pad. Can get a bit worn but not to bad." | |

"These are the best pads if you want stealthy flexible pads without a cup. The high tech fabric is kind of slippery so you slide when you fall on them and ergonomically they have a better fit than any other brand. I ordered and tried on about $500 worth of pads ---all different brands to try on. Of all those pads the Ennui Shock Sleeve Pro Knee Gasket and Elbow Gasket were the ones I kept." | |
