I don't like wrist guards at all because it immobilize movement of my wirst which is really annoying if I want to pull out my phone from my pocket or whenever I need to move my wrist in general.
I recommend getting these...

These Tactical gloves absorbs hard impacts really well, and I can tell you it does for sure! I ate shit without my glove before @ 15mph and had a deep cut on my left palm and it hurt like hell. Then I fell again but @25+ mph with these gloves and I walked away with no injuries and only some soreness in my palms. (Both accidents I fell landing on my hands first).
Any elbow/knee pads are fine. I'm looking into getting a full body motercycle armor jacket because my pads ripped during that +25 mph spill.
Full face helmets are recommend going 20+ mph. I've meet a guy in college this year where he had fell off his board in the past wearing a normal skate helmet with no face protection and he ended up breaking his jaw bone and gotten with heavy scars all over his face. Till this day, it affected him up so hard that he slurrs when he speaks and people gives him stares.
Normal helmets are recommend for cruising speeds 15 mph max speed. Most riders here in this subreddit seem to ride around these speeds anyways.
I started with a skate helmet, but have looked into gloves and knee pads. I like to ride in shorts, so the pads will help.
Considering a full face helmet now, but undecided. Visually it seems overkill, but I enjoy eating solid food.
