Max27 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 As many of you who have followed my trilogy of bullshit of trying to figure out my next set of leg pads, @coopaloop1234 for sure knows, you will know I wanted to get the 1x pads, as theyre listed as "hybrid" pads and ive tried them in real life and i liked them a lot, but the knee block was very stiff, and it felt uncomfortable to me. I want to make it work that I could get 1x pads as they look awesome, they felt great, and the landing pad was my only issue with them, so I was wondering, would wearing a bulky knee pad, like the ritual X ones from Warrior, make a knee block that felt uncomfortable or unpleasant, less unpleasant?

Urabus33 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I had a similiar issue when my EF3 were new. I wear PAW knee pads with the ritual landing part sewn on and it worked like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to get a rug-burn type irritation with just the PAW knee pad, but not that the Warrior knee lading part is under me they have been great. I had the KOHO knee pads as well and while they were real bulky the landing was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think Vaughn/Brians have been the healthy medium for soft and hard leg pads (depending on what line you get) warriors quite literally, play like pillows. if they had another line of pads maybe I’d be convinced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 9/10/2018 at 9:58 AM, coopaloop1234 said: What happened to getting the R/GT's? lol im exploring other brands as well as the warriors bc i like a tight leg channel and the warriors have a loose fit. ive tried loose fit and it feels sloppy. i love the control you get with the tight fit. i heard from warrior that you can adjust the 360 sling wrap strap to make it tighter but i was discussing the g4s with him on there, not sure if its the same way on the gts. the gts are meant to feel more solid, thats why they went away from the removable liner on the palm and laced in a 70 degree break. in a video, lee, a goalie manager from pure goalie said it felt like you were pulling the liner, and then the liner was pulling the glove, and they laced in the eternal break where in the g3s and g4 gloves you can remove the liners, like i said already to give a solid(er) locked down feel to it i use the glove example bc its not as adjustable, so that could be carried thru to the gt leg pads. @coopaloop1234 is the 360 slingwrap adjustable to make it more tight?

The rgt is identical to the g3 and very close to the g4. If you couldn't get the G4's to your liking, you won't find more success with the rgt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
