They're probably reverse engineering it as most of their pro customers are wearing it. We'll have to wait and see how close their final product is to the CCM. In the meantime, if you want the CCM version, check SLS and Facebook sale groups as they pop up from time to time. I own a Varlamov return and it is excellent. @TheGoalNet grabbed one from Eric Comrie (?) and didn't like the arm stiffness...so the forum reviews on it are split 50/50 lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoalNet Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Spring 22 is what I have been told And yes, don't be surprised if looks similar to the CCM pro stock Premier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My biggest issue with most retail chests (besides Warrior and Mach) is that there’s usually a gap at the elbow break where a puck can fit during dead arm blocking once the chest is broken in. It’s 2 weeks later and my arm has only now stopped swelling but still has bruising all the way through. This incident resulted in me coming up with this monstrosity. I haven’t built it yet but an order has been placed for a X3 Pro+ chest. I’ll probably also throw some modified premier shoulder floaters on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Large in CCM but I’m looking to take up space too not just gain protection lol. The warrior arms are still 7” wide boxes and once I have some axis shoulder floaters made they will be too. My hope is to create something semi legal but with better performance than any one retail chest could offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's wrong with Warrior? On Warrior you could swap the floaters easily as they are velcroed almost completely? I don't have any experience with Hyperlite nor X3 but when I had Warriors GT Pro I never had any tramas with the chest part being not protective. The arms were bad exactly on the mentioned elbows.

I’ve had problems with the warrior sternum and chest blocks not swallowing up pucks near as much as any other brand. Plus I adore that soft armpit protection on the hyperlite. I’m hoping to make the floaters on my hyperlite similar to the design warrior and axis 2 use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn’t decreased mobility and should solve my problems. That said, I’m still about 6’ and only 140lbs so any additional space I can take up is going to be used. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But without those it's easiest to get the best working parts and try to fit them together. Not the cheapest way to go though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
