“I have been wearing the GelDefender for two seasons, and when it comes to safety during the game, there is nothing better. It gives me so much confidence when I play that I’ll never suit up for another game without one on. I would suggest wearing this to anyone I care about and if you ask me, they should be mandatory at all levels.” -- Bryn Roy, Montreal Alouettes #16
Bryn Roy is a 27-year-old professional linebacker for the Montreal Alouettes (part of the Eastern Division of the Canadian Football League). The CFL is the highest level of competition of Canadian football (very similar to American football), and Roy was drafted 34th overall in 2012. He now uses a GelDefender skull during every game he plays.
*Scientists have no conclusive evidence as to whether or how the reduction of g-forces during impacts reduces the number or degree of concussions and head injuries. GelDefender products provide supplemental padding as well as cooling and comfort benefits when used with helmets and caps. Participants in activities in which head impacts can occur should always use tested and approved helmets for protection. However, no helmet or supplemental padding can protect the user from all serious head or neck injuries that can result from impacts.
