A.YOUNGoalie13 123 Posted Friday at 11:41 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:41 PM 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Taco 31 Posted Saturday at 04:42 PM Share Posted Saturday at 04:42 PM 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 post Share on other sites

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 post Share on other sites

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 post Share on other sites

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 post Share on other sites
