Sandvdwa Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 Hi all, I’m looking to buy Vapor X5 Sr. pads but I just see that the line is already from 2023. I was wondering if there is coming a new release of goalie pads by bauer in the near feature. Kind Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know any details on the line or the Sr. line that comes with it, but with how Bauer lines have been progressing the last few years, don't expect anything massive. You'd be fine getting the X5's and shouldn't worry about "missing" anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroGravitas Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 There's always something coming. If you need pads within the next couple of months, I'd go for it. If you can survive a 6-7 month wait, you could pick up the upcoming gear when it comes out, or get the X5 Pros at that time, when they've been marked down.

There's nothing on the horizon that's as revolutionary as the OG Vaughn Velocity in the 90's, or Bauer Odin. It's all incremental for the moment, and while the advertising folks will do a great job convincing you that the new innovations are things you cannot possibly live without, the reality is that you only really notice huge improvements if you skip a couple generations of gear.

IpaddyTECH Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 The new flylite graphic (which we got to see for an afternoon before we had to take it down haha) is pretty bad imo, you might want the X5's with the hyperlite 2 graphic anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
