187 Pro Elbow Pad

187 Pro Elbow Pad

187's highest level of elbow protection, with extra-thick padding.

The 187 Pro Elbow is designed for action sports athletes who want the highest level of elbow protection. It's built for vert, bowl and big park sessions, and it's a strong pick for roller derby skaters and fast e-skate riders who want serious elbow coverage.

The design surrounds the elbow for maximum cushioning, with extra-thick padding and a size-progressed cap that extends the protective coverage zone. An articulated shape keeps your full range of motion, and ballistic nylon with industrial-weight stitching keeps it going.

Size Guide

Straighten your arm and wrap a soft tape measure around the middle of your elbow. 187 measures the circumference of the extended elbow. 187 says its chart is a guide based on averages. If you're between sizes or unsure, size up: customers generally do better with the larger size.

187 also makes an XS (18–20cm, 7–8in), not stocked in this listing. The chart has small gaps between sizes; if you fall in one, go up. 187 publishes this chart in inches; cm values are converted and rounded.

About 187 Killer Pads

187 Killer Pads started out in an upholstery shop run by a single family, and that sewing-room background still shows in every pad: ballistic nylon, industrial-weight stitching and shapes refined over years of feedback from riders. The Pro Knee is the flagship, and 187 calls it the trusted choice of professional skaters and top athletes worldwide for bowls, vert ramps and heavy sessions.

The pro connections run deep. Keegan Palmer and Steve Caballero have both had signature 187 pads, and Lizzie Armanto worked with 187 on what it calls the first women's pro model pads in skateboard history. On the roller derby side, the Pro Derby Knee was developed with input from top derby skaters, and collabs with Independent Trucks keep the skate culture front and centre. From a first six pack to full Pro gear, it's the pad brand riders trust when they're going big.

FAQs

What size 187 Pro Elbow should I get?
Measure around your elbow with your arm straight and match it to the chart: S fits 20–23cm (8–9in) up to XL at 30–33cm (12–13in). If you land between sizes or you're unsure, 187 recommends going up a size.

Pro Elbow or Slim Elbow?
The Pro Elbow has extra-thick padding and a size-progressed cap for heavy transition skating and derby. The Slim Elbow is more compact with a single strap for street, park and everyday riding.

Is the Pro Elbow good for roller derby?
Yes. The extra-thick padding and wraparound coverage handle the repeated falls of derby, and the articulated design keeps your arms moving freely.

When should I replace my Pro Elbow pads?
Replace them when the cap is worn through, the foam stays flattened, or the stitching starts to give. Padding that no longer springs back won't absorb impacts the same way.
