Ich bin so dankbar, dass es diesen Guard gibt. Ich hatte vor paar Monaten vier meiner Rippen gebrochen und hatte Angst wieder Surfen zu gehen. Ich habe sehr lange nach so einem Produkt gesucht und es gibt nichts vergleichbares. Der Guard sitzt einfach perfekt, verrutscht und stört nicht. Mit ihm fühle ich mir geschützt und das Paddeln ist super angenehm. Ich kann den Guard zu 100% empfehlen. Vielen Dank an die Erfinderin!
Managed to surf for two weeks straight in Biarritz. No pain. Loved it.
I am so grateful for this product! I fractured my rib while surfing and was in too much pain to do really anything that involved pressure on the rib or twisting for a month. But I started to feel a little better and thought maybe I could put a pad under my wetsuit to cushion the pressure while on my board. Then I realized I’m not crafty and have no time so I turned to the internet and found Heeru. Oh my gosh. I got in the water for the first time yesterday and it made a massive difference! It feels secure and I don’t even notice it under my wetsuit. It doesn’t feel cumbersome. It’s the perfect amount of padding. I’m pretty sure I’ll continue to wear it even after my rib has healed to help protect me in the future. I love how this company started- a woman who had a need and solved a problem. Thank you so so much!
This has saved me a lot of discomfort and compromised surf sessions - no more bruises, welts or blisters under my ribs. It gives very good protection and, at least with me, it’s comfortable to wear and stays in position well. In a two hour session with lots of falls and paddling I only need to make occasional adjustments to keep it in an optimal position. I wear it under a rashguard whilst longboarding in Thailand. And now I won’t surf without it.
Amazing quality noticeable right out of the packaging. With a lovely handwritten note. This is gonna come in very handy with my rib protrusion.
