Arm armor

1. The point of your elbow and the bones at either side of your elbow joint must be covered by rigid material worn over at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) of closed-cell foam, or equivalent padding.
2. We strongly recommend that the entire medial side of your forearm (the ulna) is protected by rigid material. A partial or full vambrace, or equivalent, should suffice. We also recommend 1/4 inch (6 mm) of closed-cell foam, or equivalent padding under the rigid material, and no more than a 1 inch (25.4mm) gap between your forearm protection and other required arm or hand armor.
