Strapping has been completely overhauled again since that pic. can you shoot me some more pics of the strapping? Also, are you in Canukistan? I was thinking of a CCM type set-up with the vecro option for the calf strap, leaving the top calf strap, removing the bottom and adding some sort of elastic calf wrap system like most modern pads.

We've had this discussion before - I play in the same league as you... So I'm a local. I've removed all the calf straps. I run a scrivens strap, ccm style knee lock and a calf lock elastic now. I run a single nylon top strap to close the thighrise, leather bootstrap, and shock cord toe ties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Ritual X Pro's and have no issues. 20 hours ago, Doobiesnax said: Lol i thought so, or thought i was taking crazy pills! Where did you get the mods done?

United charges up the nose for their work. Good work, but pricy. I do all my mods myself, sewing awl in one hand, beer in the other. If you want to meet up to check them out in person shoot me a PM with your #. Pads are in the car, but i'll get to it at some point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayen Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 @Doobiesnax @Znowleopard You can see the knee and calf lock. But inbetween them you'll see the inner elastic strap aka professor strap...aka "letter" strap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you ordering the knee block from? I don't recommend going through who i went through, unless you willing to wait a very, very, very long time (it's well documented on many different goalie communities the delays and wait times on this). Blocks are stock sizing with maltese in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great product don't get me wrong, but the company itself i'm not a huge fan of, despite owning a decent selection of their products. Also if you can, make sure you tighten the pad cordage, as the knee wing on the 4000's aren't the most solidly built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doobiesnax Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 @Kayen ok got the pads and they are in great shape! Where did you get all the material for your modes.. velocro and elastics beign the most important? Are you on AGU of facebook? Why do trees taste like wood?

Doobiesnax Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 While i wait for my monster knee blocks and professor strap to arrive i figured i'd recycle the knee cradles i removed into some temp knee lifts. Shout out to Kayen for all the help and inspiration to get modding my own gear... This speed stitch awl is a game changer! Already did the Price knee to calf strap mod!
