Jonathon v Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 My gnetik 3 pads getting very soft. I found a sweat deal for gnetiks 4 in my size pretty cheap. I was wondering does the optik really drop down faster? Gnetik 3 and optik both have the looser X strapping and the air pillow which is supposed to seal faster. Gnetik 4 has tight leg channel and no air pillow? Will it really even matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most new elastic strapping systems can be adjusted to be worn tight or loose. Its a matter of knowing what works for you and dialing in the fit accordingly.

Jonathon v Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 @TheGoalNet you had optiks which is gnetik 3 strapping and went to gnetik 4. Did you personally feel awkward after being so used to the looser fit? Did you have to chance anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct ins trapping systems will differentiate form each other and will give a different feel, but most operate essentially the same. The minute differences between the Optik and Genetik4 strapping system are only a small piece of the overall puzzle when it comes to how each pad plays and feels. And even that, many pads will be easy enough to adjust to in a small amount of time now a days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want my next pair of pads to play to my style really well so I try to nail the specs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
