Description

// AS PRESCRIBED BY THE DOCTOR…

The VR46 Riders Academy was launched in 2014 by World Champ Valentino Rossi as a way for aspiring Italian road racers to graduate to the MotoGP World Championships. Riders accepted to the VR46 Academy receive everything needed to learn, progress, and succeed in the MotoGP paddock, including advice from “The Doctor” himself, Valentino Rossi. Described as a “Talent Factory”, the Academy provides Motocross and Flat Track training facilities and has produced some of the most talented Moto races including the current MotoGP World Champion, Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia and MotoGP Rookie of the year, Marco Bezzecchi.

 

The partnership between VR46 and POD Active came about through a shared goal of elevating athlete performance through proper training and injury prevention. POD Active’s action sports- specific designs emulate the human body’s natural movements while inspiring confidence with CE impact protection and Medically certified ligament protection.

 

“Knee Protection for the VR|46 Riders Academy that we can trust” – Valentino Rossi.

 

 

// PROTECTION WITH STYLE

With cross-training being an integral part of MotoGP riders’ preparation—whether at the motocross track, supermoto course, or dirt track—it was only natural for them to want the same high level of protection POD Active provides its professional motocross, offroad and action sports athletes.

// LEGENDARY ADAPTIVE CUFFS

// PODIUM WORTHY HUMAN MOTION® TECH

The intensity of modern sport places the human knee at significant risk which is why we developed our own Synthetic Ligaments™ to reduce the strain on yours.

Inspired by the human body, our patented Human Motion® technology uses the power of Synthetic Ligaments™ engineered from Vectran Fibres™ (5X stronger than steel) to provide progressive, multidirectional motion control.

The New POD Hinge Housing provides smooth contact surface against your knee avoiding abrasion and delivering new levels of comfort, performance & reliability.
