A secure 360° wraparound strap system keeps the pads firmly in place to eliminate mid‑game adjustments. Perforated S-shaped ventilation zones at the knee and shin increase airflow, helping players stay cool, dry, and focused throughout play.
Technical/Engineering
The S‑shaped perforations are engineered to increase convective airflow while preserving impact integrity. Their curved geometry lengthens the hole perimeter to expose more edge surface to moving air, which helps disturb the boundary layer and promote heat and moisture evacuation. Unlike straight slots, the “S” avoids long linear stress risers, distributing loads more evenly through the shell for better crack resistance and durability. The alternating curves also create local micro‑channels that guide airflow regardless of skating/running direction, improving breathability without sacrificing shell stiffness or protection.
Athlete Benefit
Our S‑shaped vents are designed to keep players cooler and drier without compromising protection. The flowing curves increase edge length to move more air across the leg and break up warm, humid pockets inside the pad. At the same time, the S geometry disperses impact forces and reduces the risk of crack propagation compared to straight cuts, maintaining the pad’s structural integrity through repeated shots, blocks, and flexion.
