RBK 9K Elbow Pad Review

The Reebok 9K ASD Elbow pads are the top of the line model released from Reebok for the 2007-2008 hockey season.
Reebok has become well known for their protective equipment since purchasing the highly regarded Jofa line products.
Modeled after the former Jofa elbow pads that were favored by many professional players for their durability, protection and comfort, the Reebok 9K ASD Elbow Pad is no slouch in comfort and performance. The 9K elbow pads, just like the 9K Pump Skates and the 9K O-Stick, exemplifies the quality of the Reebok name in hockey equipment.
The following are the specification and the description of the Reebok 9K Elbow pads that are worn by many NHL Players.
- ASD construction anatomically designed patterns for improved fit and stability
- JDP elbow caps engineered to disperse impact energy away from the joint
- Lock strap designed to secure the elbow in the proper position
- “Wedge Technology” covering for increased protection
- Pro level 3D mesh with PlayDry for comfort and breathability
- Brushed nylon comfort zone
One thing that I have noticed is that they do not have a strap that impedes on the elbow joint. Many other pads do have a strap that comes across the hinge of the elbow and hampers the flexion of the joint. The RBK 9K strap design allows for exceptional comfort and mobility, which is important to me.
You can purchase your Reebok RBK 9K Elbow Pads at Hockey Giant.com for just $59.99 today. The regular retail price for these awesome elbow pads is $100.00 – so this qualifies as a great deal!

the o-stick is a joke, just like any of rbk’s other sticks besides the sick-kick.
