Soft leather palm protection for beginners, with no dowel.

• Ideal for first-time guard users, recreational and beginner gymnasts
• Protects palms from rips, and great against monkey bars too
• Soft leather palm piece with a velcro wrist strap
• Suitable for boys, girls and adults (not designed for elite training)
• Sold as a pair

PLEASE NOTE: Small 2" towelling wristbands are required with these guards to prevent rubbing and blisters on the wrists.

HOW TO SIZE: Measure the palm only, from the base of the palm (where the wrist creases) to the base of the middle finger. If you fall between two sizes, choose the smaller size (the leather palm piece stretches slightly with wear).

Please note: All guards should be checked with your coach before first use to make sure the size is right for you. Guards that have been named, worn or marked can't be exchanged or refunded. Incorrect use of guards may result in serious injury.

IMPORTANT WARNING:

• Replace guards every year, or at the first sign of a tear.
• If a tear appears, stop using the guards immediately and replace them.
• The higher the skill level and training hours, the more often guards need replacing. This is for your safety on bars.
• Never use water on your guards. The leather will harden and can snap.
• If finger holes are too tight, enlarge them slowly with sandpaper. Never use a knife or scissors, and don't make the holes too big, as the guards can slip off.
