POC Joint VPD Air Elbow

The POC Joint VPD Air Elbow is a professional-grade protective sleeve developed for cyclists who want to maintain maximum freedom of movement while ensuring their joints are shielded from trail-side abrasions and impacts. This light-duty guard centers around POC’s innovative VPD Air padding, a visco-elastic material that contours to the rider’s arm for a customized fit and only stiffens to absorb energy when subjected to a sudden force. To ensure the guards remain in the optimal position even during high-intensity pedaling or technical descents, the pads are outfitted with an internal neoprene anti-slip coating and a robust crash retention strap. The exterior is wrapped in a reinforced stretch material that is specifically engineered to withstand the rigors of off-road use, preventing the pads from tearing when they come into contact with the ground. With its streamlined, breathable design, the Joint VPD Air Elbow offers a reliable and comfortable safety solution that is ideal for trail and enduro riders who need confidence-inspiring protection that doesn’t feel like heavy armor.
