Max27 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 anyone have any feedback on this unit? the reviews on goaliemonkey are extremely opposing, people are either saying the mobility and protection are good or theyre saying its terrible. I have had quite a few shots to my ve8 that have been hurting and would like to move on from it if possible. I like a slim fit chest protector thats extremely small and protective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnyman666 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 For me, I never heard one good thing about the unit you’re asking about. The reviews have scared me off, and CCM are one of the brands where it *seems* that what the pros get are not necessarily the same products us schlubs can buy, so Carey Price playing in one means nothing to me. Vaughn chesties are very good candidates for padding upgrades by such people like Factory Mad. I have worn units from Vaughn, Warrior and Brian’s. I have bits from my Warrior on my Brian’s. I am likely going to take the plunge on a Brown. Sorry I can’t help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman30 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Max, if you can look for a Brian's unit. I have worn a custom built Brown 2300 for 7 years and love it, but I had the chance to pick up a Brian's Halak chest protector. Now I know its pro stock but in all seriousness I have only once felt a shot through the unit and it protection wise it ranks up there with my Brown. I was eyeing up one of the ccm units but like what was said above the reviews of the current ccm units have turned me off. Small and protective you might like the optik unit and with the new optik 2 units coming out you likely to find them at a lower price. You can also check out the goalie crease facebook page, they did have some pro stock ccm units for sale before Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebx Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Have you check the Passau C/A ? Very protective but also mobile This one is a Pro pack, a version with some beef up, ready for the NHL. We also have a standard "pro" version, less expensive but still very protective and durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckstopper Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I've been very happy with my Bauer 2X Pro. It's not as mobile as a Vaughn or the new Warrior RGT2, but it's been a very solid performer. The RGT2 would be worth a look as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
