Level Network Snowboard Gloves--What's BioMex And Why Do I Need It?
Level's BioMex wrist protection system is the result of an extensive, ongoing collaboration between snowboarders, the medical community, and engineers. A four-year study conducted by the St. Moritz (Switzerland) Orthopaedic Hospital involving more than 40,000 snowboard hours and more than 2,400 participants showed that snowboarders who wear conventional wrist guards are 4.5 times less likely to suffer wrist injuries over those who don’t wear wrist guards. Level’s BioMex Wrist Protection System reduces the likelihood of a snowboard wrist injury by 7.5 times.
The Biomex wrist guard is flexible, shock reducing, and ergonomically designed. It is made from high-density rubberized plastic with a split "swallow-tail" wrist support that, upon impact, flexes to disperse the blunt force from a fall. And the BioMex wrist guard has a central pivot system at the base of the palm, so that you can position the two-piece guard in whichever way it is most comfortable for you.
All Level gloves and mittens feature BioMex wrist guards and removable (and washable) liners. If you want the added protection and comfort of the BioMex Plus dual density wrist guard, check out the
Level Super Pipe snowboard gloves or the
Level Half Pipe snowboard gloves or
Half Pipe snowboard mittens. With the 2011-12 gloves, you can easily remove the BioMax insert so you you can wear it without the liner on warmer days. If you want to know more about snowboard wrist injuries and how the Level BioMex system guards against them,
