{"title":"Slide Gloves","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSlide Gloves: Controlled Falls, Protected Hands\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen an electric skateboarder falls at speed, the instinct is to put your hands out. Without protection, this instinct causes road rash, fractures, and lacerations. With slide gloves — equipped with hard plastic pucks on the palm — that same instinct becomes a controlled slide that dissipates impact energy and gets you back on your feet. Slide gloves are the piece of protection that turns a bad fall into a manageable one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally developed for downhill longboarders who perform controlled hand slides at speeds exceeding 80 km\/h, slide gloves have become standard protection for electric skateboarders who ride at speed on pavement. The puck system — replaceable hard plastic discs mounted on the palm — allows the hand to slide across pavement without friction, protecting the skin and bones underneath while providing a stable contact point for controlled falls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSlide Glove Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePuck material\u003c\/strong\u003e: HDPE or UHMWPE plastic — hard enough to slide on pavement, replaceable when worn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlove construction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Leather palm for durability; mesh back for breathability during active riding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinger protection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full-finger designs for maximum protection; half-finger for dexterity in warm conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWrist support\u003c\/strong\u003e: Some models include integrated wrist support for additional impact protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePuck replacement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Replaceable pucks extend glove life significantly — check puck compatibility before purchasing replacements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair with a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/volt-rove-mips-helmets\"\u003eMIPS helmet\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/volt-rove-knee-elbow-pads\"\u003eknee and elbow pads\u003c\/a\u003e for a complete protection setup that covers every impact zone.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/omnirove.com\/collections\/volt-rove-slide-gloves.oembed","provider":"OmniRove","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
