bunnyman666 Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 I dug the pads. I had a bit of learning curve for rotation, but I moved very, very well in them. The felt nearly as good as my broken in Warriors. I think they can only get better. Turco break did not save any goals, but I liked it, none the less. The adverts made these fun. Can't wait to try to make more fun HTV with the Cricut. Hopefully, I can master fonts and making silly HTV decals, such as "Brain's Led Pak" and doing the Bauer logo in Cooper font or something equally provocative. I am waiting for the pic from Mr. Zero and we will then have a pic of me in the new set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hills Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Did you use a camera that is as retro as the gear to take the photo? But seriously, love the jersey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still trying to get the lay of the land with it. I was not going to waste material, (as the rolls of black metallic at Michael's was EXPENSIVE), so I just did it. Or I could call that the "Olympic-sized" ad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 One more thing: for those of you that wonder- I LOVE the one-piece landing. It just adds simplicity to the pad and my knee flaps don't flap in the wind. I know it's not NHL legal, but neither is my trapper! I had the best game I've had in awhile with those pads. Now just gotta get the vision sorted... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostender Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Out of curiosity, why is a one-piece landing not legal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Probably the same reason why they mandate a hard strap through the knee flap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when did they do that? I am pretty sure the majority of 1S/1X pad wearers now in the NHL do not have a hard strap on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember it was an issue with Brian's and it's not now with Vaughn & Bauer either the NHL loosened up or Bauer did some serious lobbying to get a minor rule tweak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 Just did another 2.5 hours in these pads. I love huge, long, and forceful rebounds. One rebound got into someone's cage! Another went clear into the neutral zone. Again- since my D men don't clear the trash out of my crease, I need the huge, to the next Zip code rebounds. One person tried to one-time the rebounds and whiffed the shot. I don't know if it's merely the fact the pads FIT or they are superior, but they are pretty bloody good. I do know that they are well built. I will continue with my impressions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a bit small, but it will get replaced as puck marks pile up: Aren't you afraid that your ad will just blend in with all of the other goalies who have ads for hair-dressers on their pads?
