ThatCarGuy Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) Wasn’t really feeling the 7000s even after modification so hopefully these are better They’re definitely stiffer and closer to my normal size pads than the 7000s. These gatekeepers were basically my work bonus since they were given to me. If anyone wants Vaughn V2 7000s that fit like 35+2 with a stiffer knee block then let me know Edited March 19, 2023 by ThatCarGuy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilyazhito Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Here are my new Ultrasonics. I've enjoyed playing with them. The rebounds are nice and hot. The sliding is excellent. I also haven't had any cheap 5-hole goals with these pads. I've had to scrap the toe ties these pads came with, and later the stretch laces I got from the old 2S Pro pads. I've had trouble with the Bauer toe ties breaking and the stretch laces getting caught under my skates. Hopefully a set of ProLaces will solve my problems.

xmikex32 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 kind of off topic but any of you guys know a work around about buying Bauer gear from Canada and getting shipped to the states? Hockey shop has US in my size but Bauer wont let them ship out of Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another option is to go to Canada and get the stuff from there in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro laces work very nicely with Ultrasonics. I'd go with the TGN spec laces, it'll allow the pad to droop down a bit and I've found these pads play better that way. I've tried regular Prolaces, and they were fine, but the TGN spec is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm right in between the two i think i would land higher in mediums but i don't want to be bulky in larges. I wear 34 warriors and land towards the top of the knee stack.

I see CCM does the same thing and its kind of dumb since they sell the same gear in the states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If more people see they can just order from Canada and ship to the US so the buyer can save via exchange rate, it’ll probably piss off some dealers in the states.

However I have bought (product xyz) from your shop before and I’d like to continue dealing with you because of (service/sales relationship/bad experience with US vendors/another reason of your choice). Can we work something out?” Again. Wink. Wink. Nudge. Nudge. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCarGuy Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I would like to send my deepest regards to anyone who’s ever relaced a bauer xxx glove this thing is a nightmare 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatCarGuy Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 For context I had to relace the internals so that the glove closed properly. Ran out of lace for the pocket so I’ll get some more tomorrow. Absolutely love the laceless fingers and may attempt to copy that on my next setup 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really a great pad, my favorite Lefevre entry to date. The changes are small but work really well together. If you're coming from a CCM (especially an Eflex) pad it's a very safe transition IMO. The catch glove is going to be an underrated upgrade, they close much cleaner than the CCM versions and are much more consistent (I think I've had 3 Lefevre gloves now, all of them have felt exactly the same!). My EFlex 1 and Eflex 4s were both specced as Game Ready D30. This go around with Px3 I went with a Game Ready Xtra and another with a Pro Palm. Have been very pleasantly surprised how clean the pro palm is closing Do the Lefevre's have D3O or something similar or is it the traditional beefed up palm?
