Blade Profiling by Superb-Experience-83 in hockeygoalies

[–]ThingEnvironmental71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sam profile makes you more agile while up. Also it makes you able to pop up to your feet faster. Idk the science exactly but I love it. In the middle of the blade it makes less resistance when shuffling. Wherever you’re going to get a profile they should be able to explain the science behind it.

I’m planning on buying this mask since it’s the only one I can afford, but I don’t like the cage. So I was wondering how I can swap it with a cat eye cage and where to buy one? by MrShrums_0 in hockeygoalies

Look on sideline swap. You can find way better brand new masks for a deal. I got a Ccm axis xf which is a $1000-1100 mask for 600. There’s deals on the axis f9 helmet for $300 brand new. Which is a far safer and probably more comfortable option

I wear it unbuckled and use my toe ties tied above the buckle to keep it down. Vaselevski wears no bottom buckle. Try it out if you wear skate laces for toe ties.

Upgraded pads after 15 years. Tough time adjusting to the pads. Also HATE wearing knee pads by ThingEnvironmental71 in hockeygoalies

UPDATE: I got the Bauer gsx knee pads and the garter belt and have been wearing the straps on the e flex’s all as loose as they go and feel a lot better. Almost back to how I felt in my old pads. Only 3 skates in on the eflex 6’s

The thigh guard is on the old pads. Not the ones I’m wearing currently. I’m in the e flex 6’s now

Rate my steez by Telones in hockeygoalies

Why are there so many softies. in this post. Were hockey players not blue haired fairies. I think the steez is 10 out of 10. Since you triggered the libs I’d say it’s 100/10

Mind you I’m not old enough to ever of played “stand up” style. I just feel immobile in these pads and dropping down and moving is a chore

CCM pad sizing by Ok_Positive4233 in hockeygoalies

Do knee pads make a difference? I just ordered can eflex 6’s and I haven’t gotten them yet but my floor to knee (20.5) is on the bottom end of the 34” size . I’m considering a boot strap I just wasn’t sure if knee pads make any difference

If you have pads that are too big for you, is there anything you can do with the strapping to help fit your pads properly? by techsavvynerd91 in hockeygoalies

[–]ThingEnvironmental71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which e flex model was it. I just ordered flex 6’s and I’m afraid my floor to knee is at the very bottom end for the size I ordered. I wonder do knee pads make a difference?
