Best Protection and Support Gear for Ski and Snowboard

Skiing and snowboarding put high demands on your body. Fast turns, hard landings, and changing snow conditions mean protection and support are just as important as skill. The right gear helps you feel secure, confident, and ready for every run.

The knees and ankles are the most vulnerable joints on the mountain. They absorb force during turns, jumps, and sudden changes in terrain.

For knee protection, the NRG Knee Brace with Spring Hinge provides strong, reliable support to help stabilize the joint during demanding rides. If you prefer easier application with solid support, the NRG Knee Over Wrap with Spring Hinge offers a secure fit without sacrificing comfort.

For ankle stability, the Phantom 3+ Ankle Brace helps limit excessive movement and reduces the risk of rolling or twisting on unpredictable snow.

Balance and control start at the center of your body. Strong hip and core support help maintain proper posture and control through every turn.

The Cross Compression Short with Hip Spica provides targeted compression and added hip support. This helps reduce muscle vibration and adds a feeling of stability during long days on the slopes.

Your calves and feet work constantly while skiing or snowboarding. Supporting these areas helps manage fatigue and maintain comfort.

The ELITE Compression Calf Sleeves offer snug support around the lower leg, while the ELITE Recovery Compression Socks help support circulation and recovery during and after riding.

Falls are part of mountain sports. Adding lightweight impact protection helps reduce the risk of injury without limiting movement.

The HEX® Forearm Sleeves protect the elbows and forearms using flexible HEX® padding, making them ideal for park riding, icy conditions, or crowded slopes.

Protective and supportive wear helps your body handle the physical demands of skiing and snowboarding. From joint stability to impact protection, every piece plays a role in how safe and confident you feel on the mountain.
