POD K8 3.0 Forged Carbon Knee Braces
The POD K8 3.0 Forged Carbon Knee Braces are setting a new benchmark in advanced design and rider safety for motocross and action sports athletes. Incorporating cutting-edge features tailored to optimize both support and protection, the K8 3.0 maximizes strength & comfort while ensuring uncompromising performance.
Forged Carbon Frame & Adaptive Cuff
Pod’s exclusive Forged Carbon Composite is crafted by layers of military grade carbon fiber sheets, pressed, heated, and molded to optimize strength while reducing weight. The new Adaptive Cuff increases comfort by adapting to your leg size or shape, so it accommodates muscle motion and disperses load more efficiently.
Adaptive Lower Frame
POD’s industry first adaptive lower frame captures and secures the leg while conforming to movement, plus reducing the risk and severity of injurious rotational forces by 54%. Two rigid composite struts extend down each side of the tibia (shin bone) providing traditional extension and flexion control, while an innovative flexible TPU rubber bridge allows the lower frame to conform to various leg shapes, greatly enhancing comfort.
re((SPOᴎSE)) Impact System
Through innovation, research, and testing POD chose to create their own soft, flexible, & light weight CE Level 2 (EN1621-2) certified Full Coverage Impact System. As a result, this innovative and proprietary Viscoelastic polymer minimizes shock, lessens impacts, reduces vibration, and disperses energy across a vast range of temperature.
