coopaloop1234 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Man, I feel BIG in the hyperlite. Still some tinkering to do, but unit felt good and doesn't really feel cumbersome in the shoulders. Feels more natural to move in than my 2S. Though, you can tell its not as protective. That's more saying how little of shots you feel in the 2S. Thing is pretty bulletproof Edited January 23, 2022 by coopaloop1234 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had some issues with the rib protection cramming its way into my armpits, that went away by half way through the game. Very excited about this thing. I know for the 2S I did a lot of forcing myself through to get used to it. Hyperlite is far less of a nuisance and has me looking forward to using it more.

The upper rib protection was a huge selling point for me over my shield 2 which had virtually none. I got caught in the armpit in rvh all the time with that.

It’s seen everything from low level high school to AHL shots with no bruising anywhere while I’ve used it. I plan to use it as long as it’s protective which should be years the way it’s held up.
