Though hey, @bunnyman666is it coming home? - sincerely, a. Scot. Yes we are! That scale would be great for when I was a bike weight weenie, especially when shaving weight from bolts and other fittings. Of course I weighed 117# soaking wet at the time, so I could ride a 13# bike at the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Large body w/ belly extender and Medium arms. 7.3 lbs Wonder what the variance is between our units to cause the ~6oz difference. The only real thing I omitted besides a front belly tab was the Jenpro on the floaters. Surely that's not 6 oz. Hmmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see that well in the picture, but my shoulder floaters seem thicker than yours. Its also a few years old so there may be some differences in material now.

It feels lighter than my Optik in my hand. @Adam Cooper can you weigh yours? @goalie Yes, I will try to weigh my CCM Extreme Flex Shield II chesty this weekend. I have a "Large." To follow-up on the earlier thread. Couple first impressions since I've now played in this thing 3 times. 1.) I've taken a couple direct bombs (very hard slap shots) to the chest and shoulder with no pain or issues. Did not feel a thing. Still testing out the arm protection. 2.) Movement in this chesty is excellent. Moving arms up above my head is not as good as my prior Senior Warrior chest. The shoulder plates get in the way so sometimes harder to put on my mask and jersey. Not a big deal as in game situations I never put my arms that high. 3.) The neck. Several of you have asked questions about this. I would say that I've had to make lots of adjustments to the neck as it rides a little high. Right now what has been working is that I can push the neck guard down to provide better movement of my mask. I already wear both a neckguard under my chesty and a dangler so I've got lots of protection. The other option I'm going to play around with is adjusting the shoulder velcro to lower the neck guard to a level similar to other chest protectors. @TheGoalNet can you share how you have the neck area positioned when you wear this? Overall, still incredibly happy with this chesty. Because I have better movement in the arms I also find I can handle the puck better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Cooper Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 @TheGoalNet I took the opportunity to weigh my CCM Extreme Flex Shield II - Large and it came in at 6.4lbs. My Warrior R/GT Senior Large comes in at a light 6.2lbs. I weighed them both multiple times to make sure. Considering the added protection of the CCM and D3O foam that’s really good. I’ll be posting a video soon of my first impressions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent used an ef shield but I had the same issue on my g4 of it riding a little higher on the neck, I found if you move the backpiece down, the area where the floaters connect, as well as the straps, itll make the whole unit slide down, and if you wear it a little looser itll allow it to slide down your chest a little more, i did that and it helped w that. I dont use a dangler, just a collar, and find it has no interference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One question. Do you tuck in you C/A or not? When I look at that one I'm not sure if it would fit well if you leave C/A untucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonder35 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I recently purchased a used Vaughn 2200 Velocity 6 Pro Spec C/A for $50. It's a size Large in very good to excellent condition, 4 years old, one previous owner. This thing is light, as in flyweight light, making liberal use of carbon fibre and mesh. My very unofficial scales register a weight of just under 5 pounds. Does anyone here have game condition experience with this unit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe next week I’ll give it a shot. That makes for a good topic of discussion. What percentage of goalies tuck their chesty? What are the main benefits?

You got me beat I paid $60 for mine. I think it's a pretty solid chesty. I play roller hockey and the only issues I've had with it are some stingers to the arms (mostly bicep and inner elbow area), but that's a pretty typical complaint with Vaughn. The rest of the unit has been perfectly protective and it's super mobile. Only other complaints I have is that the mesh isn't super durable, especially on the arms where it rubs against the body. I also dislike the Velcro adjustments for the wrists and back, but I've done a few hacks to make it work. Let me know if you've got any other questions!
