Vaughn PVE 2

[Max27 181]

Anyone know if the pve 2 is gonna come out? saw the pves go on clearance on goaliemonkey recently 

[coopaloop1234 1,079]

That's if they even come out.

Since the SLR2's are just about to come out this spring, I wouldn't expect them this year (if ever)

i remember i saw TGN say somewhere there was a possibility of the pve 2 w quicks graphic he has this year w the slr2 strapping and the core was how the pve is an xf core, these would be a v8 core

PVE is actually a special SKU limited to their top retailers. That's why not everyone sells them. At the start of the season I was told Quick's graphic is PVE 2 and it's exclusive to GM.

You could probably custom order them. It’s all standard specs just from different pads.

Maybe Vaughn has some particular rules about customizing. If you notice on their website, the PVE doesn’t exist as a product.

their customizers are a joke on top of that. you essentially get a stock pad and i've heard the stuff takes an eternity to ship

True enough. But I bought my PVE’s off the shelf at a LHS and they had some custom options on them. Maybe it depends on where you’re ordering from. At a minimum they should be able to build the pad and put either the VE8 or SLR2 graphics on them.

Confirmation from Vaughn that the PVE2 wil be offered with Quicks graphic?

[ThatCarGuy 147]

If that's what the PVE 2's are going to look like stock, I'm sold. I didn't like the SLR 2 design all that much but this, this changes everything.

By design, do you mean pad features or graphics?

My bad for not clarifying. Didn't sleep to well last night. I like the graphic of the PVE 2's way better than the SLR 2's. 

[ThatCarGuy 147]

Also,

Never noticed this until I tried to find the pad itself:

Quick's PVE 2's have knee rolls while the ones Vaughn just posted don't. Interesting.

[wox33 63]

That's because Quick isn't using PVEs.

That's kind of what I suspected. But I have began to question that:

[wox33 63]

Vaughn just uses his graphic to push new pads. He's been rocking some variation of the V4 stuff if I recall (I'm sure there are much better Quick historians on here than myself). But those sidewall graphics on the blockers are straight off a V4 and I believe that's what his glove is as well. His pads look to have the old V2 strapping and then who knows what else but I think the V4 is the base he still works off of.

V4 Core with a V2 leg channel. Gloves are based off of the V4 model as well.

He essentially hasn't changed his gear since his 2012 cup run.

Bingo... He's the new Hasek... Same gear new graphic

Well I was wrong

Anyways,

Yay.

My understanding is the PVE's, which were technically part of the V7 line were done the 1st of the year.  I've heard rumors of a PVE2, but I don't see the point, the PVE's were basically a Velocity version of the SLR, which was just used to bridge the gap from the V7 to the VE8.  The PVE's still had the Vaughn boot break down issues of the past which was supposedly corrected on the VE8, otherwise, they are very similar pads.

There you go.  Guessing this is to keep up with the 2 lines of Velocity that Vaughn has run the last several years.

[ThatCarGuy 147]

I see the difference now.

Big difference in the hand placement too. Quick's is a lower hand placement.

and if you look the old v4 graphic is on the sidewall too, giving it away
