CCSH Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Last season, I used a Passau C/A, I'm not sure of the model considering bought it used from a friend. I found the mobility to be sub-par and it was very, very bulky. I was able to make it out to a Goalie Monkey the other day and tried on a CCM EF Shield 2.9. I started off with trying on a small thinking that it would fit better considering my old C/A was a medium. The small size was way too small so I moved up to a medium and it seemed to fit a lot better and wasn't as bulky as my old one. The only problem is I don't have enough money for a new chest protector. Does anyone know any mods that can make the chesty more mobile and less bulky especially around the shoulders? Or should I buy a cheap one from somewhere else? I've got some pictures showing the C/A and me playing to show what it looks like on me. I'm a pretty small guy and feel the extra size of the pads affects how I'm able to move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MangoRhinehart Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 That is a Passau Gen1. There are a bunch of adjustment points with the backplate. You can try adding some slack in the cord where the arms attach to help with arm mobility a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCSH Posted June 5, 2019 Author Share Posted June 5, 2019 Does anyone know if the sizing difference normal for an older unit compared to a new one? Such as medium sizing being larger compared to a 2018/19 unit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Boiss Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Dunno about a Gen 1 compared to a Gen 2, but (having just received my new Passau chestie) I do know that the measurement guidelines they have on their website are spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff da goalie Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I had a Gen 1. I'll be honest. I hated it. Couldn't get rid of it soon enough. But I loved my Gen 2 and my Pro Pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
