Triple 8 Wrist Saver Wrist Guards

Triple 8 Wrist Saver Wrist Guards

The classic skatepark wrist guard. Skate hard, fall harder.

The Wristsaver is the wrist guard you see at every skatepark and rink. It is a simple, proven design for skateboarding, inline skating and roller derby, and it is a great first guard for beginners and kids learning to fall.

Impact-resistant moulded ABS splints sit on the front and back of the wrist for support, with shock-absorbing EVA foam between the splints and your wrist for cushioning. A tough 4-way stretch nylon mesh body gives a snug fit that moves with you. It comes in junior and adult sizes.

Size Guide

Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles, keeping the hand flat. If you are between sizes or unsure, Triple 8 strongly recommends sizing up to the larger size. The cm figures are converted from Triple 8's inch chart.

Triple 8 does not give ages for JR. Measure your child's hand rather than going by age.

About Triple 8

Triple Eight was born on the streets of New York City and made its first helmet in 1996. It started as protection for people who actually ride, and that is still the whole point. Over the years the brand has built signature gear with some of the biggest names on a board, from Tony Hawk signature edition helmets to Deep Cover editions for Mike McGill and back-to-back Olympic gold medallist Keegan Palmer.

Below the helmet, Triple Eight is known for the Saver Series. The Wristsaver, Kneesaver and Elbowsaver are some of the most common pads at any skatepark or rink, and the range now runs from soft pull-on Coverts to derby-tested RD Wristsavers and the Bumsaver padded shorts. Collaborations with roller names like Barbie Patin and GRLSWIRL show how deep the brand runs in roller culture. Riders choose Triple Eight for simple, proven protection that fits well and keeps them skating.

FAQs

What size Wristsaver should I get?
Measure around your knuckles and match it to the chart: JR is 6–7in, S 7–8in, M 8–9in and L 9–10in. If you are between sizes, Triple 8 recommends going up a size.

What size Wristsaver for kids?
Most younger kids fit the JR, which suits a 6–7in knuckle measurement. Bigger kids and teens often move into S. Measure their hand, as hand size varies a lot by age.

Can I wear Wristsavers under snowboard gloves?
They are made for skating, but plenty of riders wear slim wrist guards under roomy snow gloves or mitts. Check your gloves fit over the splints without cutting off circulation. If they are too tight, size your gloves up.

How do I care for my Wristsavers?
Air dry them after every session so the mesh and foam do not stay damp. Triple 8 does not publish washing instructions, so if you hand wash them use cool water and mild soap and keep them away from direct heat.

Should I replace wrist guards after a big fall?
Check the splints after any heavy slam. If a splint is cracked or bent, replace the pair, as it will not support your wrist the same way next time.
