Young racers learning to cross-block slalom gates need protection that fits a smaller arm, and the Energiapura Junior Armguards deliver it. These plastic forearm guards share the shape of the carbon guards on the World Cup, sized down for kids and teens with adjustable straps. That means fewer bruised forearms and more confidence driving the hand through the gate.

Why we like it:

Kids get the same World Cup profile the adult guard uses, just scaled down, and wearing what the fast racers wear makes gearing up for training something they look forward to.

Features and Functions:

Sizing is the key difference here. The junior guard is scaled down, so it covers the forearm without jamming into the wrist or elbow on a smaller racer. Construction mirrors the adult version, with lightweight, impact-resistant plastic molded to the profile of Energiapura's Round Carbon Competition guard so poles glance off. Adjustable elastic straps with Velcro closures let parents dial the fit over a speed suit or training jacket, and the guard is certified as protective equipment.

Fit and Sizing:

Scaled for junior arms, with adjustable straps that tighten down for a secure fit on slimmer forearms.

Bottom Line:

Best for U10 to U14 racers moving into full slalom gates who need their first real forearm protection.
