OceanMon Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 Has anybody used Passau's Iceskin Pro to apply to their pads to convert them to ball hockey pads? Any thoughts? Thanks!
loki1416 Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 So here's what I've found. I ordered from Passau and after a week of no action on their end, I ordered from Kenesky. The Passau unit is still "in transit" a month later while the Kenesky got theirs here in a week. So take that for what you will. My usage of these are for in the street, not arena flooring, so I don't know how they will "slide" on arena floor. They do NOT slide on pavement! But that's not what I wanted them for, just wanted something to take the damage instead of the pads themselves so the pad would last longer. And I can tell you now, they are fantastic at taking a beating. Install was a breeze. Felt a little weird cutting the pads for the inserts, but you get over it when you realize the pieces will cover the hole you cut. It took about 15-20mins to mark, cut, push the pieces inside, then screw them outside piece to the inside piece. Overall, I went with these over the rollerfly slide plates because I thought they would be a bit lighter. No idea how much the rollerfly's weigh though, but the iceskin is all very light. Don't even notice it's there.
