Most contact martial arts, such as boxing, kickboxing, sambo, MMA, are characterized by a long training process, during which individual sports equipment with a high level of shock absorption is very important. A special place among the means of protection during the battle is occupied by projectile gloves. You can often hear alternative names - cue balls, shells. Outwardly, the products resemble boxing gloves, but they have a number of distinctive features. You can buy projectile gloves at an affordable price in the SPORTKO online store. Read more about what cue balls are, how they differ from boxing gloves later in the article. What are projectile gloves? In sports, shell gloves are individual sports equipment that has a special padding. It, in turn, is designed to protect the joints of the hands from damage during training. Shell gloves are used for practicing strikes on various sports equipment: pears, bags, paws, etc. It is strictly forbidden to use products in competitive and training fights, because due to the light weight and hard surface of the glove, serious harm can be done to the enemy. The difference between shell gloves There are several design features that distinguish projectile gloves from boxing ones, among them: free thumb, while in traditional models it is hidden to eliminate the risk of injury; dense padding that protects the knuckles during contact with projectiles; fixation with Velcro, this allows you to better feel the blow; good maneuverability, due to which a high speed of impact develops during the training process, the technique improves; often shell gloves are produced together with a weighting agent, this is done to increase the load during the training process; some products have cut off fingers, this type of gloves is called shingards, the model is used in those types of martial arts where grips are involved, they do not interfere with the movement of the hands, soften the attack. How to make a choice? When choosing shell gloves, you need to pay attention to two main parameters: size and material of manufacture. The effectiveness and comfort of training directly depend on them. Also, when choosing equipment, you need to remember that this sports equipment is used only for working with equipment during the training process; for sparring, you will need to purchase other types of gloves. Size selection It is very important to choose the correct size of the shell so that the gloves are not too heavy and do not “walk” on the hands. In order to choose the size of projectile gloves, you need to measure the girth of the palm. This should be done as follows: attach the beginning of the sewing centimeter to the base of the thumb (the widest point of the palm) and make a girth. Based on the value obtained, the size of the bits is selected. It is worth noting that if you plan to use bandages, then you need to take into account a small gap. Standard sizes of projectile gloves and equivalent palm circumference in centimeters: S (palm circumference 18-20 cm); M (palm circumference 20-22 cm); L (palm circumference 22-24 cm); XL (palm circumference 24+ cm). Since the filler volume of cue balls is reduced compared to boxer's gloves, the weight of the products is also reduced. The exception is models of shells with weights. The degree of tightening of cue balls or gradation of weight is from 4 to 8 ounces. For a harmonious increase in physical activity, it is recommended to have a pair of projectile gloves with metal inserts in your arsenal. They have a positive effect on the effectiveness of training. Material For the manufacture of shells, genuine leather and its substitute are used. Depending on the chosen material of manufacture, the products will differ in durability and price. Cue ball leather shell gloves are distinguished by a longer period of operation, they are much more comfortable for hands. Shells made of leatherette are much cheaper, while even the highest quality artificial material cannot be compared in quality with genuine leather. As a filler for projectile gloves, latex (cast form) or a combination of latex + polyurethane foam is used. These modern types of fillers do not go astray for a long time. They perfectly retain their shape even when used in enhanced mode. In addition, latex has a breathable structure, which prevents moisture and heat from accumulating inside the gloves. This, in turn, provides comfort during the training process. Why buy shell gloves from us? In Ukraine, you can buy shell gloves at an affordable price in the online store of boxing equipment SPORTKO.
