  1. Supreme v=d/t, back to basics
  2. I like this a little less, missed opportunity...
  3. Yeah, but Supreme Mach 1 rolls off the tongue a little better than Supreme UltraSonic 2
  4. Aaaaaaaanyway, I like the line name change to set up Mach 1, Mach 2, Mach 3 iterations for the next little while. Nice touch (assuming they stay in that direction)

    Vaughn SLR 3

    @Chenner29 Not nearly as egregious this year, but these came to mind. True you kind of have to also flip the right/left pads. Admittedly were probably in "lots of different ideas will have commonalities" territory at this point haha

    Vaughn SLR 3

    So are we thinking they use an upside down True graphic for this line?
  7. It's kind of hard to judge, not sure if I didn't let it set fully or properly or what. From the directions I read for things like vinyl seat repair, it seemed like it would set pretty firmly. It definitely held the gash shut, but if I ran my finger against the layer on top I could kind of roll/peel it away as it felt kind of soft. On the other hand, playing hockey didn't seem to cause any wear to it, so I just stopped touching it and never really thought of it again. So I think it is the right tool for the job, it just may require some practice or expert advice. Could also be that the cortech skin just doesn't let the goop adhere the same as vinyl?
  8. Have you posted your set anywhere yet? Maybe I didn't go back far enough in the right thread
  9. The way they've built it I wouldn't be too worried about it breaking. It's like a 90 degree plate with the foam sandwiched on it. I used M*****r knee blocks that I stitched to a pad backing myself for over a year that didn't rip off, so I don't think butterfly drops are going to be a problem for a molded 90 degree bracket. But new tech/designs are always a bit of a question mark
  10. So @mr_shifty1982 what is it about the materials that you find so suspect? The 2s pro arms I found absolutely nothing wrong with, so wondering if they are trying some major material change along with the elbow design? Could also be psychological that you've influenced what @Hockey1234 considers a stinger now
  11. Ah, got it. I haven't seen one up close but that's something I'd say most of the Supreme line feels like for sure. There's a similar feeling with all the OD1N style pads, where they feel very thin and like it's just kind of a board on the front of your leg. It's hard to describe, but the thinner stuff does feel harder to compensate and it starts to really feel normal pretty quickly. I totally get that initial aversion to the stuff though.
  12. I've been using the 2S Pro, had an NXG for a bit a while ago too, the 2S is like a space age NXG honestly. Think curve composite making it feel lighter, but still solid. Doesn't wrap around you like a Vaughn or the more "mobile" units, so I can understand when people say they "feel" like it's not protective, but if you already liked the fit of it then I think you'll be good especially for just 2 years. @mr_shifty1982 @ThatCarGuy is it the new elbow floater design you guys are spooked by? The body looks like another NXG iteration, but don't see why the elbows would be less protective.
  13. Nope, no ice around me yet I don't think. I feel like these would saturate pretty fast haha. I do wonder what the goalie equivalent of the full plastic shield Bauer is making for players would be though.
