Standard knee pad – Super knee pad
Standard elbow pad – Super elbow pad
The Panda standard stvle knee pad is made, . like the elbow pad, from heavy-duty leather padded with multiple thicknesses of foam and filler, is wrapped around the sides of the knee and securely supported in place by a heavy-duty and attractively designed striped elastic. To prevent the pad slipping in action, an extra leather brace design holds it firmly in position on the knee.
The Panda super knee pad is shaped to the knee joint for the best possible fit, and fastens with three velcro- linked elastic straps, thus avoiding the need to fit the pad over footwear to place in position. Due to the velcro fastening, two sizes only will fit all age groups.
The Panda standard style elbow pad is cleverly designed to remain where it was intended … on the elbow. It is made from heavy duty leather padded with multiple thicknesses of foam and filler, is wrapped around the sides of the arm and securely supported in place by a heavy duty and attractively designed striped elastic.
The Panda super elbow pad is specially shaped to the elbow and fastens with three velcro-linked elastic straps, giving a super firm non-slip position and maximum protection. The velcro fastening allows the pad to give satisfactory fit, with only two sizes, to all age groups.
A good skateboard glove has to protect but a GREAT skateboard glove has to LOOK GOOD too. Planet’s Panda range is designed to give maximum protection at the wrist, the ball of the hand and the fingertips, exactly those points where you need the greatest protection. The standard skateboard glove comes in brown whilst the Panda harlequin glove is one of the sport’s jazziest with its make up of brightly coloured different shades of leather for each finger and the palm.
