My glove will hopefully match, except there will be a twist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 11 hours ago, keeperton said: This is absolutely beautiful. Can you possibly share more about this? Thanks. I created a plug from an existing 282. To do this I fused the helmet at the adjustment points and blended the seams. I also removed the logo and the trim around the ears. Once all the openings were closed off and blended I made a two piece mould off of the plug in traditional fashion. I chose to keep all of the vent holes except for the ones at the very top/back. I also drilled holes for the two common cage mount positions. The helmet I posted was the first pull from the mould. Its a fibreglass/epoxy lay-up. A little on the thick side, but not bad for a first pull. I used it mostly to figure out hole layout .etc. A gazillion small square holes is a pain in the a$$!!!!. Defiantly going to do another one in the future... but I have other things on my radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatCarGuy Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 First ice time with the G4 Sr’s: these are the stiffest pads I’ve ever used (Reebok premier series and Vaughn lt88). Nothing about these pads is a gimmick. Air slide is real and it is amazing. I didn’t clear the crease of snow once during my goalie session to see what happened and the sliding difference between a fresh sheet and a snowy crease was drastically reduced. Active drop is cool though it’ll take some getting used to. Before the pads even touched the ice I got rid of the ARS toe strap and put my ecopro toe ties on instead. The pads have a little trouble with recentering but that’s an easy fix. And the weight OH MY LORD THE WEIGHT The weight is without a doubt my favorite part of the pads. For a goalie who relies on being super quick these pads are perfect. Compared to the Vaughn’s I almost couldn’t tell I was wearing gear when we did skating drills. Overall I’m in love with this gear. It’s everything I want and more out of pads. Side note: I now have everything warrior except for sticks and neck guard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put it on my Instagram but I might as well post it here too. I've been picking at it for the past few years. I love wearing old Jofas, but having a young family I worry about wearing 30 year old plastic on my 30+ year old head. Composite Jofa 282 replica (yep...a clone). Tried to stay as true to the original design as possible while removing anything I thought wasn't needed (logo, rivet holes, adjustment points) before creating the mold. Did the chin cup in black vinyl with a vertical stitch pattern. Cage is by OTNY I believe. Got it off eBay many years ago. This was a lot of work but overall I'm happy with how it came out Pure fire, matey!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mocked it up before deciding on the heritage style gloves and it looked wrong. Keep in mind this is what the star on my pads is: It's just missing the top point so it would look weird to have a right triangle at the base of each glove. Plus this way the pads still make a star in butterfly. Edited September 26, 2019 by ThatCarGuy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
