Big2 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Their web site has a short promotional as well - this is going to be a long wait till the launch Glad to see their not coming out with printed pads - per Bauer if I am not mistaken Brians had tinkered with this technology a couple of years ago! TGN are you allowed to start a post asking what we think this new pad will be bringing to the table?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGN are you allowed to start a post asking what we think this new pad will be bringing to the table?? Brian's has the printed capability in house. I cannot speak to the scale or size they could accommodate a fully printed pad. They currently use it for fine details within a larger cut and sew graphic. For example. they could make a bird on someone pad's and print the eyes and feather details that would be too small to make from Jenpro. I am in the minority, I know, but I cannot wait until all graphics are printed. It gives the pads such a clean and modern look. The gloves have a brand new strapping system. It's a technology that has been applied to other sports, but no one is doing it in hockey yet. The glove has a new shape and break. The pads have a new landing area and binding-less design in that area. Literally, pretty much every detail is new. Those are some of the highlights its probably okay to share. What is the release date, did I miss that in the video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveByRichter35 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I know there was some information put out on these but now I cannot find the thread. Its not here nor the Brian's thread. How are these supposed to play? More on the stiff side or more on the flexible side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveByRichter35 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I've never felt either of those. Dammit I hate having no decent hockey stores nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, Vapor really doesn't have much flex. I think R/GT is more flexible by a long shot Like with anything Brian's, if you are not happy with the stock stiffness profile, you can order it more flexible or with extra breaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look like they will be stiff as wood - saw a video of a Eddie Lack in Europe demoing the latest version of these pads, also being so thin I can't see anything else but these being very stiff. they also look like they slide very well - check the site goalie gear nerd and scroll until you find the video.

Iso Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 @Brians_Joz If one is putting in an order for a custom setup from Brians now, would it be possible to get an Opt1k set or at least some of the new features (thinner profile, material, etc)? Since it is around a 8 week waiting period that almost brings the finished order to the end november if the order is placed now, is it possible?
