How many?
By S. Langston
OK, I win an Idiot Honorable Mention. But never having shopped for these things, I assumed (since nowhere in the listed info could I find a number, or the word "pair") that I needed to order two of these, since we all have two wrists to guard. Now I have four...guards. They look fine, and in any case I have spares.

Not bad
By Jeff
These are pretty good wrist guards. They have a hard plastic strip that covers the underside of the wrist and curves into the palm of the hand. I took a few hard spills on some crusty icy snow today, and they definitely saved me some pain. They fit into my Dakine mittens without much trouble.

A couple of issues I had with them: The thumb hole is really tight and pinches the skin between my thumb and index finger, which gets very uncomfortable after a while. Also the plastic piece that sits in your palm is too big. It protrudes and digs into my hand (I fixed this by carefully shaving off some of the excess plastic with a sharp knife).

They seem to run a bit small. I ordered Medium size and I have small hands and wrists, but they're very tight on me.

Overall it's a good wrist guard for the price and they'll protect you well, however you might want to look for something a bit more ergonomic for the long term.

Mine were all black and did not have the Dakine logo as pictured but are otherwise identical to the picture.

Awesome and essential.
By Athena
These wrist guards are comfortable, slender enough to go under a normal sized pair of gloves and protect your hand when you fall snowboarding. They may take some getting used to if you've never worn wrist guards before, but these are great quality.

These will save your wrists whether you are a beginner or going pro. Stay safe.
