I have the GoPro hero3 and use the Suction cup mount and put it on the glass right behind the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fot sure the g netik pro 2 slide better than the v4’s. V4’s are bigger heavier and also a couple seasons older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have to say the V4’s are very comfortable, but like I said they are heavier as they are taller, leather straps, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do, which setup accommodates it more? I'm dealing with that now, just picked up a pair of Heritage Genetic Pros, and I'm not used to the strapping. I had some Simmons 996 (or 997, they're unbadged) pads that seem less open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t wear any knee protection just my dry fit pant. Yeah strapping is very different between the two, my Brians is it just the Velcro smart strap set up I do wear the leather boot strap and lace toe ties instead of the smart straps. The Vaughn’s are full five leather leg straps but I wear them so loose I don’t notice really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it almost seems pointless to wear the leather straps these days, especially when there are so many in some of those pads from a few years back. You're velcro'd in nearly good enough, it's almost like the straps are purely aesthetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imperative Posted September 12, 2018 Author Share Posted September 12, 2018 posting the games out of order. This is Friday nights game. I forgot my GoPro so i filmed on my phone and only caught the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperative Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 another Shinny time. I changed up the camera angle, suction cup on the glass right above the hash marks and changed from wide angle to narrow I have to turn on the GoPros wifi and use my phone a monitor to make sure it is sitting correctly to get the net in frame. This shinny was kind of rough, and when we switched and the white team was shooting on me it turned into a breakaway fest, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperative Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Took the Brians out for a spin this time. I felt pretty good about my game, one big thing is my east west is a bit slow due to a lack of strength and flexibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperative Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 First time out with a new to me PaSSAU pro pac chesty. I had given it an oxyclean bath and was just dry before this skate so i didn't get time to adjust it properly so i wasn't feeling real comfortable in it. If you have one and tips on getting the best fit I am listening. Also didn't have the go pro and battery pac fully charged so it died half way through the skate.

You definitely look much different up top with the new chestie. Size? Great stop from 2:00-2:04 btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great stop from 2:00-2:04 btw Yeah I was totally uncomfortable in the passau, it is a size large and my other Chestie is a simmons 996 medium size. I had it tucked into my pants the same way I tuck the 996 and I wasn’t feeling it. According to the passau website I do measure out to a large but I got the comment from another goalie tell me he was sized too big (he was in a xl and went down to a large).

If it ends up not working for you let me know... I love my new RGT pro chest but have always wanted to get into a Passau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not one of those guys who tries a new or different piece of gear for one skate, doesn’t like the feel or doesn’t adjust it to get a better feel and then sells it.

Imperative Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 wore the Passau again and made adjustments before hand, changed how I attached it to my pants and it made a big difference it felt much better this time around I felt much more comfortable. The skate was so so, 30 skaters showed up which never happens and despite the great turn out not a great pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
