Football Blocking Arm Pads: Inflatable Torpedo Crayons vs. The Colt

One way football teams attempt to protect players in blocking drills is having them wear inflatable torpedo crayons—or shiver pads, worn on the forearms.

While having a player act as a dummy or sled for practice purposes can help in training technique, wearing small pads on the forearms do little to protect players from the physical harm present in full speed training.

The Colt football blocking pad provides a stronger cushion for drills, allowing your players to practice at full speed. Its attached arms accurately simulate a defender’s reaction to a run block without exposing your players to physical harm.

Protect your players! Equip them with the best football blocking training equipment on the market today.
