K8 3.0 FEATURES

FORGED CARBON FRAME & ADAPTIVE CUFF

Our exclusive Forged Carbon Composite is crafted by layers of military grade carbon fiber sheets, pressed, heated & 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.

POD K8 3.0 Forged Carbon. The Best knee protection for motocross and Action Sports

 

 

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((SPOSE)) IMPACT SYSTEM

Through innovation, research and testing POD chose to create its 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.

re((SPOSE))™ is an innovative proprietary Viscoelastic Polymer that:

    • Minimizes SHOCK
    • Lessens IMPACT
    • Reduces VIBRATION
    • Disperses ENERGY.
