Exoskeleton Gloves!?

[EUCRookie]

I have been looking for gloves that would work for EUC for a while but I have never seen anything like this before! They remind me of the old Nintendo Power Glove.

Do you think they would work well for EUC?

I'm pretty sure my wrist guards would fit around them no problem, especially the small cuff version: https://tinyurl.com/mbwzvfbv

(Edit): How SPS it reacts on impact, basically can save your fingers from bending backwards: https://imgur.com/r7O3Lng Note: "Insert image from URL" on forum not working???

Would it really work to prevent fingers from bending backwards though?

If a crash has enough force that can bend a metal roll bar on a Sherman, break a rider's collar bone, humerus, dislocate shoulders, break open cases and eject battery packs, etc.....

Not sure any type of glove would be strong enough to prevent fingers from bending backwards if the impact was at such an angle.

I wont know for sure until I order a pair to test for myself but people in reviews say they crashed with them and will bet there life on it now and wont ride without.

Came off a wheel at low speed when it hit a trench in the path.

Was wearing Demon wrist guards with the metal bars, leather motorbike gloves over them.

One hand took most of the impact.

Glove did slide on the concrete, took some abrasive damage, but didn't wear through.  The wrist guards certainly protected well.

Shoulder was painful.  Takes a while to heal.  Think it might have dislocated a bit as it sort of popped/clicked a few days later and felt a bit better.

I fell in June at about 15mph and came down on my arms and knees and my right shoulder is still not back to normal. It's started to be affected by the weather too. The road rash healed up well with no scarring after a few weeks and I was wearing wrist and elbow pads and my helmet. The gear did what it could but any unprotected skin is a possible injury.
