TheGoalNet 1,265 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 There has been a ton of questions about the new strapping appearing on Brian’s pro goalies this summer. . . In green; I’m comfortable confirming this is the strapping on their 2019 pad. The full line will release this fall and is NOT an Optik replacement 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coopaloop1234 1,748 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 @TheGoalNet So Brian's is going back to offering three lines of pads? Mystery Line / Optik / Heritage Am I correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But what is the difference between this line and the OPTIK’s? It honestly doesn’t look like much. The OPTIK has two cores- FLY and FLX. So what would be the point of making a total different line?

Pretty sure the blocker and glove will be different We know the strapping will be different The pad cores could also be different... Like the type of rebounds they give off or maybe these will be more customizable cores like the old “4-3-1” way of ordering Brian’s? More details will come soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Goalieinneed 18 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 So today Trav4Oilers just confirmed that the new strapping we have been seeing is in fact a new model from brians!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Goalieinneed 18 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I think there will be two styles of pads. Like what brians did with the FLX and FLY models. Why? As we see georgiev is now testing this model of pads. He was previously usibg ccm eflex plads. Which are a softer more flexible pad. We can also see that trav4oilers is getting a set and he likes a stiffer pad. So in conclusion there will most likely be 2 models like the FLX and FLY. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Max27 288 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 maybe georgievs new set is genetik 4s? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’d expect the classic Brian’s approach here... pick your flex per break Quote Link to post Share on other sites

raucebyalien 169 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Beat me to it! No surprise given that Hellberg's pads look very much like an updated G-netik base, but given the Optik launch I thought Brians might take the opportunity to re-brand the 'hybrid' line.
