coopaloop1234 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Trying out the Bauer train again. Just pulled the trigger on these 3S pads. I'm hoping the softer boot and different strapping system from the awfully weird CRS strapping on the 2S line is what was missing from me enjoying these pads. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCarGuy Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Should’ve looked for ultrasonic, 3X or m5 pro. That way you could enjoy the knee block Edited January 26, 2023 by ThatCarGuy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my second try at supreme pads, so I wanted to get these at a relatively decent price (I did) and don't want to go all on yet. If these do eventually win me over fro. Warrior, I'll probably look into jumping in with both feet. 1 hour ago, ThatCarGuy said: If only there was someone selling a full size small Mach set within the next few months or whenever a custom order arrives Doubt your machs would fit me anyways.

Aquilzz Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 2 games in and I can confidently say these are the best pads I have ever used. The 580 is going to take a major adjustment coming from almost 20 years of Vaughn gloves 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novasteel31 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Well since I am in the process of starting to look for new gear again here is what I am currently wearing.

coopaloop1234 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Now a Bauer guy. Ultrasonic leg pads and Mach gloves. Mach pads were alright, but the single break was very clunky and I have my doubts of the longevity of the jenpro attachment points for the tune fit system. With that being the only way to home the pad to your legs, it feels like playing with fire. Plus my 3S slid better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually going to ask and see how you were looking the Bauer's and this clearly answers that question. Before I ordered my Catalyst Px3's I was dead set on the March's but the True pads felt better but man I loved the Bauer gloves. We will see once my set comes in but I haven't had the best luck with Lefevre gloves so I might be going to a set of Machs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they play well for you, but for style points, I’m giving you a solid “meh” out of ten. You can do better - and usually have in the past. Of course it’s petty common when guys get married and have a kid to just give up where looks and fashion are concerned… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I would've ordered a custom set with an ultrasonic stiffness profile if I wasn't concerned with the jenpro loops that hold the tunefit+ in place. One of the sales Rep mentioned he'd seen a few of those loops break prematurely already, so that kind of cemented my thought process. Loved the gloves. Still need time to get accustomed to the catcher, but the blocker is surreal how great it is. 11 minutes ago, Lucky Pucker said: Hope they play well for you, but for style points, I’m giving you a solid “meh” out of ten.

Though, with me being the family man, the half price of the leg pads was too smart of a decision to pass up for a few custom colours. Ultimately I was going to mimic this set. 6 minutes ago, ZeroGravitas said: one of us You knew I was coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still my first full custom/pro set and it's got a soft spot in my heart. I always liked showing up in the rink with a full blue set. People were able to recognize me just based off the pads. Now with my lame white/red set, I lose a lot of my notoriety. Still have a better taste in style than @ThatCarGuy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
