661 SX-1 Gloves '06

wrist wraps

I have 661 wrist wraps. To hot here in florida to wear much. Maybe these are better then gloves. I have done hard palm skids with them. They have strong plastic braces on the palm and the wrist back. Way cooler then gloves, totally open except for the palm plastic. I sort of hold my fingers up and slide the palms down the street. No injuries yet, and much less feeling of wearing sweaty crap.
If I am not trying hard stuff, they are the only protection I wear. I think they give better protection then gloves because of the strong plastic brace that gloves don’t have.

The ventilation isn’t bad from what I can tell. My hands stay drier than with my old gloves. But, it also hasn’t been very hot during any of my rides with them yet.
