A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Has anyone else that has or had a optik 1 chesty have a problem with the elbow cup rubbing on bone of your elbow. If you have you palms facing up, that bone that sticks out to the inside. I understand this would really only happen to a someone skinny like me but looking for a fix because it was super painful for an hour skate.

Taco Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 the general easy fix if your elbow pads aren't fitting right is to pull a Brodeur <go find player elbow pads that work and figure out how to wear those with the originals taken out> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought of that, just need to figure out how and what foam I could use. The only spare foam I currently have is d30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally a short sleeve guy, tried out two different long sleeves today and one helped a little, the other was too thin and didn’t much. I might try to pick up some sort of sleeve that is a little thicker than a shirt but thinner than a sweat band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a short sleeve person, and I haven’t had any issue with the optik 2 elbow cups.. not optik 1 but still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
