seagoal Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Damnit Max you beat me to it. It looks alright. I don't like it or dislike it. I feel pretty neutral. I'm glad they stayed with having the graphic be vertically oriented. I think horizontally oriented zones on pads can look clunky and disjointed. I liked the 8 better and this looks like a continuation of SLR more so than Velocity. The spike on the inside part of the inner zone 3 is nice. The really interesting thing will be seeing the back of those pads. V9 logo looks sharp....I guess VX is next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I like this!!! Vaughn's best stock Velocity graphic since the V2 swirl I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveByRichter35 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Ohhhhh good catch, Coop! I definitely see the similarities there. I think Vaughn's "version" is a bit cleaner though lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the proposed Vaughn one more as well, but it's way too similar. This was discussed in the Optik 2 thread as well, kind of a trend at this point. McKenney, Optik 2, Hank's Bauer set, now V9. It's like the 2019 version of the sock graphic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Wait till you guys see that they are strapless though. They come with magnetic hockey socks and the whole pads are magnets. Mind. Blown. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter36 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 V9 sighting?? The strapping looks very interesting, only 2 straps. Also, they look thinner than VE8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, nice find on the pic. Looks about what I expected with the strapping. Hard to tell in this pic, but it looks like they still have not fully locked down the knee block with velcro all the way to the edges. This is my 1 complaint about my VE8 pads and it drives me crazy. Looks like there is still a gap without velcro where the elastic knee strap comes out between the cradle and the block. I'll likely not order any more custom Vaughn pads at this point but if I ever do I will order the block and the cradle velcro locked all the way to the edges, for sure.

There is a professor strap under the wraps not pictured here. Also heard they are using real carbon fiber with this line and not a carbon impregnated plastic or carbon polymer weave. .

AG37 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I'm a big Vaughn fan but I agree with most comments here on the graphic... That being said, I'm getting a new set new season and the V9s caught my eye. Do I go V9 or a Custom setup with a 'Dudo' sized pec sheet?
