CCM AB PRO vs. AB18: Key Differences

[sdgfhsd]

Notable changes in the CCM AB PRO include bulkier floaters and less flexible wrist straps compared to the AB18. The new model offers enhanced protection but at a higher cost. Interested in hearing more opinions from those who’ve tried it!

I haven't worn it on thenice but I tried on the AB PRO a couple weeks back (fit 3) and it felt great. Arm mobility was maybe slightly reduced from my pro spec V8 but I could still reach my head with no issues. Arm protection seemed solid but what I like most is the chest piece reached far down and covered a gap I have currently around my belly button. I keep getting gnarly bruises in my gut from taking shots to the bread basket; I feel the coverage on the AB PRO would solve that completely.

Anyone know the difference in length on the arms of Fit 1 vs Fit 2.  Is it barely noticeable?
