New elbow pad for armwrestling table 2012

New elbow pad for armwrestling table │Decided on WAF Congress – Brazil 2012

In the last week’s article, it was also written about this decision made at the WAF Congress – Brazil 2012:

” Technical novelty – elbow pads made by MAZURENKO EQUIPMENT with a special edge, which enables competitors to feel that he/she is close to the elbow foul. “

And now i believe we have an image of this new elbow pad design:

Онищенко Игорь (Igor Onishchenko)” На Конгрессе в Бразилии было принято решение видоизменить подушку-подлокотник, сделав по ее краям утолщение, которое не будет давать локтю уйти с подушки.   
Плюс такого введения – минимизация фолов, минус – ограничение движение локтя, то есть технику спортсменам и их тренерам нужно срочно менять, а организаторам соревнований массово менять подушки, потому что крайне нежелательно!!! готовиться на устаревших, а приезжать бороться на чемпионаты Мира и Европы на новых подушках…. Новый образец подлокотника… Обратите внимание что подушка на 1,5 см. шире))) И бока выше на 0,5 мм. “

 

Google Translate: ” At the Congress in Brazil, it was decided to modify the armrest cushion-making at its edges thickening, which will not give the elbow away from the pillow.   
Plus this introduction – minimizing fouls, minus – limited movement elbow, which is the technique for athletes and their coaches need to urgently change and organizers of mass events change pillows, because it is extremely undesirable! prepare for old and come to fight at World and European Championships in the new pads …. New Sample armrest … Please note that the pillow of 1.5 cm wider))) and a glass above 0.5 mm. “
