Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Ayrtek Hybrid Wrist Guard compare to traditional rigid forearm guards for impact protection?
A: The D3O technology provides high-level protection through molecular structure that locks together on impact, offering comparable protection to rigid guards while maintaining flexibility and comfort during normal movement.

Q: Can the Ayrtek Hybrid Wrist Guard withstand repeated impacts without losing protective qualities?
A: Yes, D3O's patented technology allows it to withstand multiple impacts without permanent deformation, as the material returns to its flexible state after impact force dissipates, unlike traditional foams that stay compressed.

Q: Is the Ayrtek Hybrid Wrist Guard suitable for fast bowling scenarios where impact speeds are high?
A: The material is designed to handle high ball speeds, though the Pro version includes additional plastic outer layer for enhanced protection against faster deliveries. For consistent pace bowling above 140kph, consider the Pro variant.
