Skateboard Impact Shorts

Skate with Assurance Using Impact Shorts

Impact shorts offer protection for your hips, tailbone, thighs, and buttocks. These shorts resemble regular ones in length but include padding in strategic areas to cushion impacts during falls. Worn beneath your clothing, they ease the aches of the following day and guard against more severe injuries.

Impact pants are especially advised for novice skaters, yet they are beneficial for any activity likely to result in a hip or buttock landing – such as ramp skating. Skateboard impact shorts are adaptable and suitable for other action sports like inline skating and stunt scootering.

Choice Between Rigid or Flexible Pads for Personal Preference

Padded shorts offer a selection of styles and designs. Sturdier, more rigid pads feature resilient padding and durable EVA foam, providing superior protection from the most severe impacts. Thinner pads permit greater flexibility, albeit with less protection.

Furthermore, it's well-known that a solid skate session can be quite the workout. Therefore, numerous brands design their shorts to be breathable and capable of absorbing moisture.

Padded trousers are merely one component of the protective gear you should wear while skating. For head protection while skateboarding, explore our range of Skateboard Helmets.
