Boy's Elite A9 Cut-Resistant Hockey Tarp with Wrist Guard

Boys Elite A9 Cut Resistant Long Sleeve Shirt

Pucktive’s Boys Elite A9 Cut Resistant Long Sleeve Shirt represents the highest level of cut protection available in hockey protective apparel across forearm and wrist zones within our youth lineup.

This wrist-guard model does not include an integrated neck guard. Choose a Full Hockey Tarp for integrated neck and wrist protection.

Designed for elite level youth competition, the A9 model delivers maximum skate blade cut protection in critical forearm and wrist zones while maintaining a low profile protective thickness of 2.7mm. Built for high intensity play, board battles, and net front contact, this shirt integrates Pucktive’s GeoSkin™ patent pending protection system to create reinforced 360 degree wrap coverage around the full forearm and wrist that remains lightweight, flexible, and breathable under full equipment.

The sleeves maintain a secure athletic fit that helps prevent protective zones from shifting under elbow pads without restrictive compression. The textured GeoSkin™ surface enhances stability by helping elbow pads remain properly positioned throughout gameplay. The Elite A9 model features a reinforced multi zone construction engineered to deliver protection performance that scored 1.43 times the minimum required for an ANSI A9 classification while maintaining controlled flexibility for unrestricted movement.

Protection Coverage

The wrist and forearm protection wraps around the arm from just below the elbow joint to the bottom of the wrist. Protection zones begin after the joint to help maintain a consistent feel and reduce uncomfortable rubbing during movement.

Engineered to help reduce the risk of skate blade injuries to:

• Full forearm with 360 degree wrap protection
• Full wrist with 360 degree wrap protection

Protection zones are integrated directly into the sleeve structure to help maintain stable positioning during gameplay while preserving a thin, streamlined profile for layering under hockey equipment.
