Trying to double up that jump that was never meant to be doubled comes with some risk, but that's why POC created the Joint VPD 2. 0 DH Elbow Guard. It's neither a true hard shell nor a true soft shell, but that's why the Joint VPD is special--it's made of a soft and flexible foam that instantly hardens on impact, so it's comfortable to wear and can save your bacon when you find more knuckle than tranny. In the case of the VPD 2. 0, POC has also layered a thin hard shell over the foam for extra protection on the gnarliest trails. The body of the guard is made from stretchy Kevlar-reinforced fabric for bombproof abrasion resistance, and POC integrated a plethora of vents to prevent excessive sweatiness on hot summer lift laps. A combo of elastic and hook-and-loop straps keep the VPD 2. 0 locked down, too, even if you find yourself flying rubber-side up just a little unexpectedly.
