ULTIMA Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 (edited) What's happening goalies. If there's anyone out there that has ever ordered or used the straight angle pads from Reebok or CCM, please chat me up. It's not a stock option, was only available on custom ordered. Looking to read about the opinions and experiences from those that have used it. Edited February 10, 2021 by ULTIMA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_shifty1982 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I have demoed such pads, and unless you're a ballerina that has an amazing flex and stretch don't order it. Pics for reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULTIMA Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 @mr_shifty1982When you say amazing flex, you mean wide butterfly? How else did they feel? And perform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A VERY wide butterfly, and mine is wide but it's so straight that the 5hole wouldn't close. It performed like any other P2, which are my favorite pad by the way. Mine are precured external and internal. I don't recommend, any reason your interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite frankly my reasoning is I'm not prepared to switch brands. I do enjoy having a matching set of the 5 major pieces and I think the CCM gloves and mask are fantastic. I do like the Extreme Flex family but desire something stiffer.I don't have much flexibility left at 37 but I'd like my rebounds kicked out further.

creasecollector Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Maybe a tall/stiff outer pad with a single outer break and a single internal break would be the best of both worlds here? No precurve and will remain tall, but will still give you some flex in the pad once broken in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeygoalie111 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I have a pro return set from Corey Crawford. Love the no outer or inner break and stiff boot. But, I also use Bauer 2S/2X, so used to the straighter pad. I am able to get a decent flare in the butterfly and I am of average flexibility. All depends on strapping. If you go looser, you should have better flare out. Let me know if you have any more specific questions to the Reebok/CCM straight core.
