TSG Tech
Read below which different technologies TSG uses in their protection for snowboarders. These technologies are used in TSG back protectors as well as their impact shorts and knee pads for snowboarders.
Amplified Softshell Construction
Softshell look and feel with Hardshell performance. A thin and flexible pierce-proof insert inside the pad on top of the multi-impact soft foam secures the foam and your joints from crushed rocks or other sharp objects. Your choice when you want comfortable soft but reliable impact protection. (Insert removable for some products).
Pure Softshell
Soft foam protection for the softest and most flexible performance. Your choice if you prefer the most comfortable pad, but still want reliable support.
ACF impact foam
ACF (Arti-Lage Foam) is designed to mimic the physical structure of human cartilage using molecular freeflow technology. In its normal state it is flexible and soft, but upon impact the molecules in ACF form a hard, protective shell. The remaining impact energy is converted into barely noticeable heat before it can reach the body.
EVA foam
EVA offers great shock absorption properties, even at low temperatures. It can be used in multiple layers and is often supported with a hard shell for even better performance.
Horseshoe Shape
Our specially designed horseshoe shape fits perfectly around knees, elbows or shoulders. The compression-molded foam pad with raised top contours precisely to the joint and stays firmly in place. This shape prevents the pad from shifting or slipping, even during intense movement.
