Men's Elite A9 Cut Resistant Hockey Tarp

Men’s Elite A9 Cut Resistant Full Hockey Tarp

Pucktive’s Men’s Elite A9 Cut Resistant Full Hockey Tarp represents the highest level of cut protection available in hockey protective apparel within our lineup. Built for elite and professional environments, this fully integrated protective system is engineered to help reduce the risk of skate blade injuries across the neck, forearms, and wrists within one performance base layer while maintaining a 2.7 mm protective thickness.

Designed for high contact competition where net front battles, traffic, and unpredictable skate exposure are constant, the Elite A9 system provides reinforced multi zone protection while maintaining structured flexibility under full equipment.

The integrated neck guard provides cut resistant protection beginning at the collar bone and extending upward across exposed soft tissue areas of the neck not covered by shoulder pads, while full sleeve GeoSkin™ forearm and wrist zones deliver 360° circumferential wrap coverage to reduce exposure across the entire lower arm.

Constructed using Pucktive’s GeoSkin™ patent pending system, the Elite A9 model enhances structural integrity, airflow mapping, and controlled mobility. The textured GeoSkin™ forearm surface is engineered to help maintain elbow pad positioning without requiring external compression sleeves.

This is maximum cut resistant protection that has Passed BNQ Testing while remaining lightweight, flexible, and breathable for extended gameplay.
