Snowboard Wrist Guards are an inexpensive and easy-to-add piece of snowboard protective gear

Wrist injuries are the most common snowboard injury - around 38% of injuries. By wearing wrist guards snowboarding, you'll be better protected when you catch either a toe side or heel side edge. That's because your first reaction is to reach out to break your fall. That puts your wrists in a dangerous position. Wrist guards for snowboarding help reduce the rate of injury by using plastic or metal splints to provide support.

You've probably heard discussions about how snowboarding wrist guards simply transfer the forces up your arm and cause forearm breaks. From all of the studies and/or data we have seen, we've seen no evidence to support this claim. Instead, the data we've seen show that wrist guards for snowboarding definitely reduce the rate of snowboard wrist injuries.

The best snowboard wrist guards - how do you choose?

"The Best Snowboard Wrist Guards" are....ones that you actually wear. Just like snowboard helmets, snowboard wrist protection only works if you wear it. So, when customers ask us what are the best snowboard wrist guards, we begin by asking if they already own snowboard gloves.
  • If you don't already own snowboard gloves, then we strongly recommend getting a pair of Level Protective Snowboard Gloves. The Level gloves feature Level BioMex Wrist Guards, arguably (and what we believe to be) the best snowboard wrist guards on the market.
  • If you already own snowboard gloves and don't want to change them, then the snowboard wrist guards on this page are good choices.
If you are looking for wrist guards snowboarding, then check for these common features:
  • Plastic or metal splints on the palm and/or back of hand
  • Adjustable straps or stretch material on the sides to hold the guards against your hand
  • Optional pull-on loops to help you get the wrist guards onto your hand
  • Make sure the snowboarding wrist guards are slim enough - and your gloves loose enough - to accommodate the setup.
