Gates catch you on the shin, the knee, the arm — and if your protection can't handle it, you'll know fast. The \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/shred-slytech\"\u003eShred Shin Guards\u003c\/a\u003e are built to absorb that punishment and get out of the way so you can focus on your line, not on what just smacked your leg.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are a solid pick for junior and adult racers who train gates regularly. They're purpose-built slalom protection, and that's exactly what makes them good at their job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat We Like\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shell is SLYTECH™ SHIELD, a technopolymer blend Shred engineered to stay stiff across a range of temperatures. Cold mornings, warm spring training days — the material doesn't go soft on you. It's 38 cm (15 inches) long in the Medium, which covers the lower leg well without riding up into the knee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGATE GLIDE is the other piece worth knowing. The shell surface uses NOFRICTION technology additives so the gate slides off instead of catching. That's time saved on every panel. Two 30 mm Velcro straps hold the guard in place over your boot and lower leg without a lot of fuss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you take \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/race-accessories\"\u003erace accessories\u003c\/a\u003e seriously and you've been getting by with something thinner or softer, the SLYTECH SHIELD stiffness is a noticeable step up. Heavier racers or those who charge gates hard will appreciate that this thing doesn't flex out of position on contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Willi's\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe've been fitting racers in the Pittsburgh area since 1970.
