I misunderstood your initial question. The knee pads included with purchase of GT2 leg pads are not the same colors/logo as R/X2. Like on G3, GT & G4 the knee pads included with GT2 leg pads will be GT2 grey knee pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R/X2 Pro+ is based on the R/X Pro design with a wide profile for more coverage at the knee. R/X2 Pro is based on the R/X Pro design with a narrow profile for improved mobility in a Pro construction.

motowngoalie Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 Another new Warrior chesty line it seems...Saw this at Pure Hockey tonight. Anyone know anything on this? Retail was $299.99, so a bit more than Sr level G4/GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCarGuy Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 It looks like a re-branded GT1 Sr C/A. Perhaps the name is more like "Ritual/X Pure" like the Brian's "Gnetik Pure" line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This new one doesn't have the plastic or the extra padding so I'm curious how this one would be a blend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I just picked up a pair of the X2 Pro + knee pads. Pretty excited about them. I can give my thoughts and comparisons to my current Ritual Pro knee pads. And....they now come in sexy black. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so impressed with how comfortable they are in combination with their exceptional protection. I'm very glad I chose to upgrade my old Ritual Pros to these. There seems to be a lot of question and concern about knee pad bulkiness, in general, and with the difference between the X2 Pro and Pro +. I snapped a few pics in the locker room today of my Pro + knee pads on my knee. I ended up loosening the straps just a bit before fully suiting up and I should mention that I do tape around all 3 straps for more conformity overall and to prevent velcro abrasion on my socks. This should give a good sense of the bulk of these. For what it's worth, I'm 5'10 165 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indykrap Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Decided to get the X2 Pro+ since I prefer larger kneepads and wanted the best possible landing. First skate on them was great on Monday! Really soft landing, great protection, and very comfortable after a small strap adjustment (slight loosening of the angled knee-calf wing strap on my G3s). Only one concern was that they slipped a bit on me while getting ready, so to preempt this I used the lace attachments on them and my pants to hold them up, and it worked great for an hour skate of drills and 3 on 3 half ice. Previous to this I was in the 1X kneepads, which I loved for protection and stability, but felt were lacking in comfort for the knee landing. That became much more noticeable when I went from CCM Premier 1s with a maltese insert to G3s, naturally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are they and what differences did this make between the G4 and GT1? I have the G4 senior unit so I'm curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
