Devices designed to stabilize and support the wrist during the sport of bowling fall under the category of wrist supports for bowling. These supports limit excessive flexion, extension, and lateral movement of the wrist joint. An example includes a brace featuring adjustable straps and a metal splint intended to maintain a consistent wrist position throughout the bowling swing.
Maintaining proper wrist alignment can contribute to improved accuracy and power in bowling. These devices can help reduce the risk of wrist strain and injury, especially for bowlers who play frequently or those with pre-existing wrist conditions. Their use has evolved alongside bowling techniques, with modern designs incorporating advanced materials and ergonomic considerations for enhanced comfort and performance.
