At least my wife did not buy “Precious Moments”.. No, not those stupid things. Though she does have some from gifts from her mom growing up. She's into picture frames and other interior pictures/wall decor/bullshit. Thankfully she orders a bunch from Amazon and returns a lot of it if she doesn't like how it looks.

I can pay for the gear, I am getting a job soon, and I get a lot of money for Christmas and Birthday from grandparents which helps a lot. as far as outgrowing it, i use a 34 + 1 and im gonna go up to a Large in 1x once the 2x line comes out, and the 1x line goes on clearance prices. ive been using 760s and i find they have awful seal, and are too flexible for me, so im gonna go to a more rigid, but still flexible pad in the vapors I'm replying for 2 reasons... To keep this thread listed as HOT To let you know @Max27 that after I read the first line of you post above saying "im 15, and i hit my growth spurt already. Im like 6'2 165-175..." I stopped reading. What I would have given to get to 6'2" at any point in my life, let alone 15. I'm still waiting on my growth spurt and I'm turning 40 this year. That said, and likely this advice has been dolled out already, but if you're done growing and you have the cheddar to spend on Pro Gear, get after it. But also keep in mind that getting good senior level pads and spending the rest of that money on private coaching, camps, pilates classes, yoga classes, eye hand coaching... those would better serve you to having someone else pay for your Pro Gear later on in life.

(I'm also saying that with no idea what sort of training you do outside of your team(s) already.) the training that i do are at the league im joining its free to use their ice rink as public skating training, etc when you play their which ill be using to work on my edges and stuff, only issue is they dont let you use gear other than skates and they have public training that like on a good night, 10 people will show up to. we do sliding work, skating training, post work, and what not. I also went this summer to Matt Martins summer camp, as it is for ages like 7-14 and i was allowed to squeak in, and they had Keith Kinkaid, and a bunch of other goalie coaches do work with us for 7 hours a day for 4 days earlier last month, as well as conditioning. this part might sound a bit stupid but i watched a video with trav4oilers and Guy St. Vincent from Topshelf goaltending and i do some of the movement stuff he had him work on bc as im in ny it would be a pain to go to where he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you mentioned about videos isn't stupid at all. Like I said, I'm turning 40 and I still try and keep up with whatever is going on in the world of goalie training and videos are one of the best knowledge shares out there. Instagram is my choice for quick videos too... I follow @goalicoaches, @thegoalieguild, @elkingoalie, @eliwilson, @finngoalie_training, @3egoaltending, @paramounthockey, @goalietraining, @handeyecoaches. If I really like something, I'll just tag it and save it to my collection for easy reference in the palm of my hand. Of course seeing what works for one person may not work for you, but sometimes seeing a movement slowed down helps, or even just seeing some great pros working on their game is fun.

Korppi32 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 20 hours ago, ruckus007 said: TBH I've tried a bunch of gear in the last 4ish years of goaltending, and found nothing really lasts more than 3-4 seasons before major breakdown. This includes the chesties. Theyr eally don't make them the same way anymore. I feel that to some degree, "lighter" also meant "less quality materials" for most manufacturers. That or the general engineering for wear and tear just were not well thought out. I just play upper intermediate level hockey, so it's kind of disconcerting that I saw the breakdown with gear at the rate it did. Pro gear doesn´t mean anymore "best durability and thickest materials". It means best performance + lightest weight (maybe durability) and possibility make a some kind of custom gear. But you may still find a brand new older stock pro pads for 699$ if durability is the most important thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_shifty1982 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Dude, I don't think you stopped growing... It's your call, buy the gear and be prepared to buy it again in 3-4 years time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
