Sold my V9s and picked up these V10s. One game so far. Stiffer and I love the boot. Glove is super light, though I had a couple stingers in warmups. Overall a good first game with some minor adjustments to make.

Accepted an invite to join a team 4 divisions lower than my usual.Got these beauties off le sideline
to try old-timey acrobatic goaltending.

Seller didnt have any meaningful measurements but got lucky on size.

Anyways, they measure 11" wide, and all the "Beasts" I've found online look like super old school 12"++ Michelin Men.

Anyone have a guess to which model these really are?  Just unlaced the glove to poke around and the interior foam is neon/lime green. Was Brian's using Maltese?

Going to remove the thigh boards and add bungee toe ties. Removed the 2(!) boot straps per pad! Probably float the tee and beef up the blocker sidewall. I'm probably overmodding them for acrobatic stuff.

Arrived last night, a few adjustments made, played at 6am this morning with it. Felt like I’d had it for years! I’ve been wearing a Simmons 996 since 2012 and LOVE that thing. Never been hurt, super mobile and comfy. Could not find anything I liked that was lighter and updated till I tried this on. Was going to buy another Simmons but got an absolutely amazing deal on this. There are a few deals out there that make this a GREAT choice. So far, one skate😜 this was fantastic, felt smaller, a lot lighter and no mobility issues, nothing got caught or in the way. Took a few to the shoulders and chest and felt nothing other than contact. It’s got a ways to go before it’s 996 soft but extremely happy with first skate. Love the blue too, matched my Warrior G6 pads, although no one can see it…

How do you feel about the retractable belly? Worked well for you? Tuck? Half-tuck? Untuck?

@RichMan I go untucked, older Bauer Elite pants. I thought the “flap” might get caught up but it never happened. It seemed to ride up and down as advertised.

*GoaliesPlus advertised prices on these are also a smoking deal for the money.

You don't see this colour for a C/A often. Looks really good man. Congrats on this beauty!

Officially joined the club of wearing stuff thats probably a bit big just so it looks bigger. Went from a medium optik 2 which was definitely small to an XL which might be just a little big. Large probably would’ve been perfect but once this breaks in and softens up it will be fine. Georgiev wears the same size at 6’1 180. I’m an inch taller but about 15 lbs less so I’ll also grow into it as I fill out hopefully.

I decided to go back to ccm from true and do a throwback to a set of gear I feel in love with while growing up watching the local jr a team. Can't wait to take them for a spin next week. And I have the matching jersey, but it's not goalie cut. :/

I found the Optik to be built long. I'm 6'2 and tried on a medium and I swore it could of worked out. I don't know what to think of it. Weird.
