Komperdell WorldCup Shinguard - Adult

If you want to get that much closer to the gates and reduce your time by a few hundredths of a second, then you need to get yourself some Komperdell World Cup Shinguards. These things are burly and slick and are ready to take your racing game to the next level. With an approximate 16-inch length, these guards will get from your knees all the way down to the boot tops for a seamless amount of protection. The purpose of the shinguard has a couple of applications. First and foremost, a protective piece of gear should do just that: protect. The hard thermo-plastic is backed with a thick foam padded interior, giving the shinguard the necessary strength as well as softness to absorb impact and not let it slow you down. Most effective when used in a slalom format where you really have to get in there and get those gates out of the way, the Komperdell World Cup Shinguard also allows you to take a straighter, more direct, and aggressive line through the gates. The straighter the line, the faster the time, so not only do these Komperdell shinguards protect your knees and lower legs from hard impacts, but they also allow you to go faster with more confidence. If you don’t think you’re going to get hurt, you’re a lot more likely to be able to increase your tempo and speed through the course, making it a performance and confidence-boosting piece of gear—one which all racers should have.
