bildeer Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 @bunnyman666 both pads have one toe strap, one boot strap and three calf straps. The orange pads have the v5 knee block and balance stabilizer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAngle41 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Wearing a plain white Wall W6 now, but this was my last paint job...an homage to some tendy heros. Anyone want to take a shot at naming everyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airheadz Customs painted a while back... guy by the name of Jay Ferguson. I just sent him a few books I had with some pictures tagged. Told him a grey scale and whatever he wanted to do from there. Sits on a bookshelf now as the chin started to delaminate. Nice to look at though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoalNet Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 @BadAngle41 - the painted mask a Wall too or a WJD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAngle41 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Good eye... WJD. Wasn't the best purchase I ever made, but love my Wall now. If it weren't for twin toddlers who feel the need for me to not only feed them and encourage growth, but also expect new clothes and shoes when they do grow, I'd probably have the Wall painted as well. (Or maybe wrapped.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAngle41 Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I love it!! The detail on the throw back Brian's logo is a nice touch as are the faux shin straps. With all of the manufacturers focusing on weight reduction lately, sets like this with sewn details will become more and more rare. I'm all for technology, but there has to be a place for craftsmanship like this too. For me, at this point of playing beer league I've given up matching sets to a certain team etc. Brown, Bucky, Retro Tan, they all go with nothing and therefore go with everything.

That's why I went with this set. I wanted it to match wherever I played. I am down to one team and everything seems stable, so I will be going all red this go round. I didn't think about the weight. These pads are 5.2 lbs each and they have the faux strapping. Even crazier to me now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayen Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) Pictures of my modded Reactor 4000's. Narrow butterfly rely on blocks to close. Quick Edit: Mods done: TGC Spec Bauer Reactor 4000. 34+2 Kept top strap to close the 5 hole better. The knee cradle was stitched in, but I unstitched it and cut out the landing piece, to be used with the knee block. Stiffened the knee landing piece with plastic for better sliding. Monster 45 Degree knee blocks w/ maltese. Heavy duty Nylon webbing strap on plastic buckle. Removed top leather calf strap. Added velcro on upper calf wing to strap knee lock down to. Swapped lower leather calf strap with heavy duty nylon webbing strap and plastic buckle. Original bindings shot, replaced with some weave jenpro, handsewn by myself. And Monster HAL Sr's (older sandwich design) on the toe ties. I've replaced the stock cord with some heavy duty 1/4 cord that I love much better. I wear the pad quite loose. Have had them for 2 years, play in them 2-5x a week on average and for senior level gear it's holding up quite well. Only major issue was toe binding ended up shredded, but some jenpro and a sewing awl - it was an easy fix. One major issue I do have with this pad however is the taper on the toe AND thighrise. I wouldn't mind a more square pad as this pad does not seal well at all. Edited September 29, 2017 by Kayen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
