Protective/Armor

POC's Joint VPD 2.0 DH Long Knee pads throw down full-on crash protection for riders pushing their limits and pushing the sport. They use Visco-Elastic Polymer Dough that forms to your legs and is flexible when moving, that then turns rigid upon impact. It's so tough, the 3D molded VPD 2.0 complies to motorcycle standards. Kevlar reinforced stretch fabric and dual straps keep them locked down where they belong. The plastic knee cap adds an extra layer of protection and reduces friction with the ground when crashing. The extra length helps in the event of the dreaded slipped pedal strike.

The VPD 2.0 Knee protector is a multi-purpose knee protector combining freedom of movement with an exceptional level of impact absorbency. The protector is constructed from a reinforced stretch fabric and features an elastic strap to further secure the pads in place. The protective padding is perforated to improve ventilation and heat control. Its impact absorbency rating meets the toughest EN1621-1 Level 2 standards, giving exceptional protection from impact forces in a fall. The Joint VPD 2.0 Knee pad is ideal for downhill riders who require the highest level of protection. The VPD material warms and adapts to the shape of the body, providing freedom of movement, but when exposed to impact, the material hardens, providing exceptional impact absorption. As well as providing a high protection level, the pad is very wearable and user-friendly, with good freedom of movement.
