I thought Bauer completely killed the reactor, even for the pros, and that is why Elliot switched. I think this was brought up on your IG account, but I believe he was actually in X60 gear which Bauer would no longer make. Also, Chris Dudo, who is one of the more informed (and nice/reasonable) guys on GGSU commented that he thought Elliot's long time rep left Bauer.

I completely understand the X60 stuff not being made and that it was what Elliot really wearing. I still think the Reactors will not live. Makes no sense for Bauer.

mik Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I think bauer should retain the option to order at least one "classic" line. With 1S and new Vapor line, bauer will not now have option for goalie, who wants "traditional pads and gloves". For example, I´m a long time bauer customer (almost every piece of equipment), but don´t like 1S material and concept (new Vapor looks very similar from photos).

Vapor is basically a 1.5S with different strapping adjustments and options. But for all intents and purposes it is the same from what I have seen.

Plus, all the guys at the local hockey shop I go to can parrot my impressions as well. A few minor difference, but essentially the same pad.

I think it's much easier to tell with a 2 piece because the 580 break looks like a giant lobster claw and the 590 is more square Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
