Abstract
An inventive hockey pad with a recoil plate added to the pad to protect the internal padding by spreading impact loads, giving the pad longer performance life. In the preferred embodiment, the recoil plate is constructed of flexible carbon fiber that returns to its original shape. This property of the recoil plate effectively forces the pad back into its original shape after it is flexed.
