The S1 Pro Elbow Pads offer more articulation and flexibility than the standard S1 Elbow Pad and are slightly longer to give you more coverage to the elbow. S1 Pro Elbows have a very soft, high rebound, highly breathable and moisture wicking fabric on the inside of the elbow which does not retain heat so it keeps you dry and cool. The outer shell materials are made with a highly durable, heavy weight ballistic nylon outer shell and high grade ABS plastic caps to protect the elbow. They also feature an inner cup design to keep the elbow in place and prevent slippage. S1 Pro Elbow Pads have an adjustable top and bottom strap to dial in a perfect fit. S1 Pro Elbow Pads are comfortable, breathable and built to last. The S1 Elbow Pads come in a set with both a right and left included in a quality mesh carrying bag. 

To figure out what size you need measure the circumference of your elbow at the elbow joint and compare your measurement to the sizing guide below.

Best Bike Helmets

 Hello S1 Helmet Co,

I wanted to email to say thank you for your company‘s helmet. I was in a bike accident where I was hit at about 35 miles an hour and thrown about 30 feet. If it weren’t for your helmet I doubt I’d be alive anymore. Thanks for taking the time to make a great helmet.

The Best Skate Helmets

Non-Certified Soft Foam Skate Helmets
The Soft foam helmet was the industry standard for a long time but these
helmets FAIL all helmet safety standards. Impact energy goes directly through the 
soft foam and rattles the brain. These helmets DO NOT provide adaquate protection in the 
case of a serious impact

S1 Lifer Helmet
The S1 Lifer is constructed with EPS Fusion Foam and passes the ASTM and the CPSC impact certification tests. The S1 Lifer Helmet fits great and is up to 5x more protective than 
traditional skate helmets.

Minna Stess Interview

Minna Stess

 Where / were you born? 

Greenbae

And where do you live now?

Petaluma, CA 

When / how/ why did you start skating?   

My brother started skating when he around 4 or 5. I wanted to do what he was doing at all times so at around 2 I started crawling around on a board and following him around the skatepark. 

What are some of your earliest/ favorite memories of skateboarding?  

Dropping the mega ramp when I was 8 years old. I remember being scared but also not and that feeling is really cool. 

What are some of your favorite or most memorable sessions or skate related experiences from the last few years?

ROTO NHS skate trip with all this insane female skaters including Nora Vasconcellos, Marbie Miller, Poe Pinson, Fabiana Delfino and many more. 

What have you been up to lately?

Just came back from ROTO trip which was 10 days. Which was basically my first real skate trip. Being in the van and going to spots everyday and just hanging out with some of my favorite skaters. 

What’s in store for 2022?  (new parks? new tricks you're working on? skating?/contests? )

Some Olympic qualifiers coming up, there is one in October in Rio. WOF in Seattle in September will be a fun one. Exposure is also in October I believe as well. I also want to film a lot this year and hopefully make a couple minute part. But also focus on progressing for contests but I really want to film a lot more and skate more street stuff.

Why do you love skateboarding?

Because there is so much to do. If you get sick of a trick or something you can move on and do a million other things. The community as well, just meeting new people is really fun and the skate community has definitely helped with my social skills as a person. Learning new tricks and eating shit. Eating shit when you are really going for something.

What are your Top 3 ?

Foods:

Mango 

Bluphoria yerba mate? does that count as a food haha

Bacon, egg and cheese which I am eating right now while typing this.

 Things you enjoy when you're not skating:

Watching skate vids that hype up 

Hanging out with my dog.

Hanging with friends on a rainy day.

Not much else honestly, everything I do basically relates to skating.

Dreams / Goals:

Olympics Paris 2024

Film a full video part

Go pro in the future

Books:

I don’t remember the last time I read a book I can’t sit and read I have to be moving

6 Reasons to Get an S1 Lifer Helmet for your kid(s)

Great Fit: The S1 Lifer Helmet fits nice and low on the head. If your head is on the smaller side (18.5" - 20.5" circumference) you can choose the S1 Mini Lifer. If your head is on the bigger side (23"+ head circumference ) you can choose the S1 Mega Lifer Helmet. It is interesting to note that 90% of children (ages 8+) and Adults fit in the regular S1 Lifer Helmet (head circumference 20.5" - 23.) In summary, S1 has a wide range of sizing to fit small, average and larger skulls.  (see illustrations 1) 

Super Comfy:  When it comes to helmets safety is paramount but comfort is always nice! The S1 Lifer Helmet comes with super soft sizing liners that conform to your head and have a nice airy and comforting feel. The Sizing liners are color coded so you know by looking at them how thick the liners are. Grey liners are (XS) 14mm,  Red Liners (S) 12mm, Beige liners (M) 10mm, Black liners (L) 8mm, Green Liners (XL) 6mm, Blue Liners (2XL) 4mm, Purple Liners (3XL) 2mm. The liners are interchangeable so you can make a helmet fit tighter or looser by removing and replacing the liner.  (see illustration 2)  

Safety Certified:  "We take safety seriously at S1" says Dan McCashin, co-founder of S1," We made the Lifer Helmet safe and comfortable so we could 100% recommend the helmet to family, friends and team riders."  The S1 Lifer Helmet is both ASTM and CPSC certified according to US helmet safety standards. It is also certified to the Australian and EU helmet safety standards.  The S1 Lifer Helmet is constructed with Fusion Foam which absorbs and dissipates impact force from the head. Fusion foam is soft enough to protect against multiple low force impacts and dense enough to protect against single high impacts.  (see illustration 3,4).

Multi-Purpose Use: The S1 Lifer Helmet is designed, constructed and safety certified to be worn while riding your skateboard, bicycle, roller skates or a non-motorized scooter.  The S1 Lifer Helmet first earned it's good reputation as a quality dome protector among vert, pool and park skaters. Over the last 5 years, the good words about the S1 Lifer Helmet spread into the roller derby, roller skate, bike, and scoot communities. The internet has also enabled discerning parents to research and find the S1 Lifer Helmet for their little shredders. (see illustration 5) 

Batch Tested:  "We batch test every production run" says Chris Terins, Co-Founder of S1, "We want to make sure every production run meets and/or exceeds current helmet safety standards. By law, we aren't required to batch test but we spend the extra time and money on testing so Dan and I know were shipping the best possible helmets to our customers."  (see illustration 7) 

Trust: The folks at S1 have been manufacturing helmets for 20+ years and they have an amazing track record for quality, safety and customer service.  S1 was the first company in the skate market to educate skateboarders about the added safety of certified helmets and the dangers of wearing non-certified helmets. As a result of the brand's efforts to educate and inform customers a sense of goodwill spread throughout the skate and bike communities. Some of the world's top pros like 22 -year-old Heimana Reynolds, a professional skateboarder who recently competed in the Tokyo Olympics, has been wearing the S1 Lifer Helmet since he was a young 12 year old grom. "It is the only helmet I will wear. In my opinion, it is the best, safest and most comfortable helmet on the market."  (see illustration 8,9)
