Wrist support

Designed to support every movement without ever hindering performance, Moreau’s gymnastics wristbands are the result of our textile expertise and our passion for gymnastics.
Whether you’re a beginner, a competitor or a club coach, you’ll find the perfect pair to protect your wrists whilst maintaining maximum freedom of movement.

With styles in terry cotton and stretch fabric, with or without Velcro fastenings, everything is designed to meet your needs during training or competitions. These products are equally suitable for artistic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics and men’s gymnastics.

Why wear wrist guards in gymnastics?

In gymnastics, your wrists are put under strain with every landing, support or hang. This can quickly lead to pain, or even injuries such as sprains or tendonitis.

Wearing a sturdy wrist guard helps to:

• To minimise impact on the joints

• Ensure optimal support during your training sessions

• Protect the skin from chafing and pressure

• Cushion impacts when moving between apparatus

Wearing wrist supports is recommended at the first signs of discomfort, and should always be done during intensive or competitive sessions. It is a simple measure that helps protect your joints whilst allowing you to stay focused on your performance.

FAQ: Everything you need to know about gymnastics wristbands

What is a gymnastics wrist guard used for?

They help support the wrist joint, reduce the risk of injury, and prevent recurring pain during movements on the apparatus or on the floor. They act as a lightweight yet effective joint support.

How do you choose the right pair of wrist supports?

Choose a model based on your training frequency, your level and the type of gymnastics you practise (artistic, rhythmic, men’s). Some people prefer a flexible wrist strap, whilst others prefer a stiffer, Velcro-fastened support.

Should you protect both wrists or just one?

Most gymnasts wear a pair to ensure balanced support and prevent muscle imbalances. However, in the event of localised pain, a single wrist guard may suffice temporarily.

Are Moreau wrist supports suitable for children?

Yes, our models are suitable for young gymnasts aged 8–10 and above, thanks to their elasticity, softness against the skin, and a fastening system that is quick and easy to adjust.
