I’ve been representing Flatland3D for years now, since they came out with their first esk8 glove, made in partnership with Knox! The new Carbons are going to be great for winter riding!
In this vid, we go over the history of the gloves, and reveal the Carbon Esk8 Gloves by Flatland3D and offer first impressions!
Yeah, you’d be surprised.
I’ve been down heaps with many different similar gloves, some knox some not, palm sliders work quite well at diverting the impact. Couple of them near 40mph with a few more above 30.
Im sure the spine helps some but SPS carries most the weight.
Yeah I fractured my wrist wearing them. Put pressure on them and they really don’t offer much resistance to overflexion if that’s what it’s called at all.
There’s two plates front and back. Definitely a lot more supportive. I trimmed the remote hand palm slider just a touch for my puck but it wouldn’t affect it at all.
The cuffs are just too short on every other glove I looked at.
