BlueSports Waxel Pads

Waxel Hip Protection Pads are a specialized training essential for figure skaters working on new jumps and transitions. Designed to provide a nearly invisible layer of defense, these medical-grade gel pads absorb the brunt of the impact when you fall on your hips, helping to prevent the painful bruising and "hip pointers" that can sideline your training.

KEY FEATURES:

• Impact Dissipation: The high-density gel is engineered to spread the force of a fall across a larger surface area, significantly softening the blow against the hard ice.

• Low-Profile Silhouette: These pads are ultra-thin and tapered at the edges, allowing them to remain virtually undetectable under tight-fitting skating leggings, tights, or competition dresses.

• Stays in Place: The naturally tacky surface of the gel allows the pads to "grip" your skin or base layer, ensuring they stay positioned exactly over your hip bones without the need for bulky straps or belts.

• Unrestricted Movement: Because they are applied individually to each hip, they don't restrict your waist or legs, giving you the complete freedom of motion needed for deep lunges and high jumps.

• Skin-Friendly & Reusable: The hypoallergenic material is safe for sensitive skin and can be washed repeatedly with mild soap to restore its cleanliness and adhesive properties.

PRODUCT DETAILS:

• Ideal Use: Targeted hip protection during Lutz, Axel, or edge jump practice.

• Material: Soft, flexible, impact-resistant medical gel.

• Customization: Can be worn on either hip and positioned according to your specific landing or falling patterns.

• Package Includes: Sold as a pair.

PRO TIP: To ensure the pads stay secure during a long session, apply them to clean skin or a thin base layer of tights before putting on your outer skating gear. This creates a secure "lock" that keeps the protection exactly where you need it most.
