G-Form Pro-X2 Elbow Pads
Best flexible impact protection for action sports enthusiasts seeking low-profile comfort.
These pads finally solve the bulk problem by using flexible, impact-hardening material that stays soft until you actually need it. They disappear under your sleeves and offer enough protection for serious riding, though you sacrifice the heavy-duty armor plating found in rigid, plastic-capped alternatives.
