Hyper X D3O Elbow Pads- Mountain Bike Elbow Pads w/ D30 Impact Technology

I’ve worn these for about 500 trail miles. My first big crash while wearing them occurred not long ago. Big endo off a six-foot drop, directly onto a slab of bare rock. My forearms and knees took the brunt of the impact, and my helmet was smashed by my bike when it landed on top of me. I walked away completely unscathed. These pads stayed in place during the crash, and don’t have a mark on them afterwards. They’ve been very comfortable to wear over the hundreds of miles of fun, uneventful riding preceding the incident described above. I used the sizing chart provided and they fit great. Awesome product.

As a Muay Thai coach I’m always on the lookout for new & better gear! For some reason not a single combat sports brand has been able to produce satisfactory, high quality elbow pads that don’t slip. These are thick enough to throw some power in sparring while still allowing good mobility due to the very thin fabric at the crease of the elbow. THESE ARE BY FAR THE BEST ELBOW PADS & NEARLY PERFECT FOR COMBAT SPORTS!!!

Extremely comfortable with great protection. Would buy again

Used for what they were intended. I fall, they protect my elbows. They fit a little snug but I'm between sizes and choose down rather than up. They vent well enough. The material is strong and have that elastic band if you needed. The padding is awesome. No transfer through on impact.

Generally, pads are a pain. Who wants to wear them for comfort? But, these are good. Lots of fabric keeps them from cutting into your arm. All that fabric doesn't breath very well. Gets a bit sweaty fast. Its really difficult to size the arms. Too lose and they fall down your arms. Too tight and your hands fill with blood. I have fit biceps but skinny forearms. These were a little hard for me to keep them where I wanted them. But, a little tug after each section and they are where they need to be. Tons of D30 all over and I feel very safe.

Excellent elbow protection. I use these for snowboarding and you don’t even feel like you’re wearing them. They stay in place all day and are pretty airy so I didn’t find I was sweating heavily in them. I tried a lot of different brands before choosing these and I’m glad I did.

To small, sizes are wrong

I just received today, fit snug and comfortable. I have the knee pads and they offer great protection so I expect good quality from my new elbow pads.
