I keep buying NME8 masks just because the padding is so comfortable. The gel inserts eliminate pressure points. I found Maltese too hard also. That's why I went back to the stock NME padding. Pretty much, gets less gross though. sure, I can send out a sample, can you private message me your name and address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cedy01 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Hey guys, I’m looking to refoam my bauer mask and after a failed attempt at finding a stock replacement set I came up with a couple options and wanted to get a second opinion from someone more qualified than me. The most obvious two would be to go to a maltese or a new image kit. But after looking around I found they were a little expensive for my taste and that lead me to the thought of using Poron XRD as it is one of bauer’s stock materials in the mask and it’s very comfortable and has great impact absorption. I am thinking of doing something similar to a maltese kit using XRD foam instead. Just wondering if you’ve heard of anyone do something similar or have any experience with any of the kits. Any advice would be appreciated, I face junior A level shots so not much room for error here which is why i’ve held off any purchases so far. Thanks, Cedric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, this is a higher end grade that is used in medical applications and should stay responsive longer.

SaveByRichter35 Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 I ask because it looks similar to what I have in my Pro's Choice and that foam is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Pucker Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hey, I’m new to the site and new to goaltending so apologies if: a) this has already been covered b) this is too obvious and boring to even be covered ... BUT, this chin strap that runs along side the chin cup... I find it effing annoying, so in my 3 on-ice appearances, I’ve pushed it out of the way. Because I’m so new, I’m hesitant to just cut it, so figured I’d ask about it here. What do you do? Does anyone actually strap into it, and if so, is there a good reason for doing so (safety related I imagine, cus it sure ain’t for comfort or convenience!) Cheers, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Mark I’ve taken it off any mask I’ve used. Btw you don’t have to cut it off - it should be attached using the hardware for the elastic snaps. Just undo that, remove the chin strap, then resecure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Pucker Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Hey @Znowleopard! why, it’s a Bauer... (awkwardly runs down to basement to check) Concept 2. The paint job is the classic “albino polar bear in a snow storm” theme. Thanks for the reply; I am leaning towards cutting it. I mean, I’ve already had the goalie coach (who I don’t think is trying to hurt me) ding me on the noggin’, and survived that without the strap being in place.

Lucky Pucker Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 @Punisher Goalie and @ruckus007: cheers for the tip; I’ll take a closer look once I’ve put the kids to bed. Glad to know there is a less-drastic option than the old “snip-snip” (which sometimes IS a good option; see above reference to kids ...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Pucker Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Update: after consultation with Doctors @Punisher Goalie and @ruckus007, chin strap removal surgery was a success. For sale: one chin strap, off a Bauer Concept C2. Never used! Asking: 1 puck, OBO. But seriously - in the unlikely event that someone wanted it, I could drop this puppy in the mail.
