This document specifies the requirements and test methods for ergonomics, innocuousness, comfort/sizing, restraint, ability to limit wrist extension as well as provisions for marking and instructions supplied by the manufacturer for wrist protectors for all users of snowboard equipment. It does not apply to protectors used in roller sports or alpine skiing.

NOTE 1 The requirements of a clause take precedent over figures.

NOTE 2 The intent of this standard is to specify performance requirements of wrist protectors needed to reduce the risk of direct injury to the wrist caused by contact of the ground within the protective zone of the wrist protectors.

NOTE 3 The intent of this standard is to reduce the risk of injuries to the wrist and distal forearm without increasing the risk of injuries to the arm and shoulder of the user and without compromising the form or appeal of the sport.

NOTE 4 Snowboarding is a sport in which there is a risk of injury. This standard is intended only for wrist

protectors used for snowboarding. Snowboarding wrist protectors do not afford protection from impacts to the proximal forearm or fingers.

NOTE 5 The tests required to ensure that a wrist protector conforms to the requirements of this standard do not attempt to predict the performance of the wrist protector in all possible situations. This standard does not

address protection from axial forces caused by an impact on the fingers or fist. Moreover, this standard does not address protection against palmar flexion (terminal flexion) caused by an impact on the dorsal side of the hand.

NOTE 6 In order for a wrist protector to perform adequately, it must be in good condition, fit properly and not be altered in any way.

NOTE 7 This standard does not address accessories that are associated with a wrist protector.

This European Standard specifies the general safety and quality requirements and test methods for domestic swimming pools. These requirements and test methods are applicable to inground, aboveground or recessed swimming pool structures, including their installation and means of access. This standard does not apply to: - pools for public use covered by EN 15288-1; - spas for domestic or public use; - paddling pools according to EN 71-8.

This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for circulation systems and is applicable to equipment used in domestic swimming pools and designed for the circulation of water (introduction and/or extraction). This standard applies for swimming pools as defined in EN 16582-1 and will be read in conjunction with it. This standard does not apply to: - pools for public use covered by EN 15288-1; - spas for domestic or public use; - paddling pools according to EN 71-8; - pre filtration; - natural and nature like pools. NOTE For filtration systems see prEN 16713-1 and for treatment systems prEN 16713-3.

This document specifies a method for the determination of resistance to impact of surfaces. It is primarily designed to be used on surfaces intended for use in indoor sports halls. The test may be undertaken in the laboratory or on site.

When undertaking tests on site, it should be noted that permanent damage to the sports floor may be caused.
