bunnyman666 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 What’s up with that? Just because Price has done it doesn’t mean we all should, or should we? This seems to be contrary to every bit of common sense; however- my Warrior Ritual Pros don’t seem to have much in the means of tailbone protection, as there is just padding and no plastic like other breezers. I am just scared to death that some freak accident could render me with a broken tailbone. For those of you who have done this: Why? Please explain why you have done this and still feel safe. I need to know... Convince me that you will not end up with a broken tailbone if you did this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopaloop1234 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 This is a thing? 1. Why? I never felt like the ass padding was any type of detriment 2. I spend too much time on my ass anyways, might as well be comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwarnar Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Just a thought... is it specific to Goalie Jesus? Or is it part of the streamlined pants movement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki1416 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 If it's not actively hindering your play, why remove it? Can't really see any benefit to not having it there. Weight? So small that it wouldn't be noticed. Heat? It's more free floating than it is tight, so no heat retention. I don't get it, but am not removing mine. TBH, never even thought about it till I seen this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoalNet Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Mine interferes with my suspenders and fighting strap. I figured it would decrease the interference. If you look at all the new pants coming to the market, they are designed with more flexible hips for the RVH position. I believe this could be an easy DIY mod to accomplish the same but keep my pants I am otherwise happy with. I also don't understand the point of a giant tailbone pad on goalie pants, so I don't think I'll lose much by removing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully, I have avoided injury, but I fear that I could have a broken tailbone if the pad wasn’t there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also feel like with how high my pants are and tucking my C&A in, I am padded back there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That flap the pops up above the belt. not the internal padding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On some breezers, that could easily be removed; on others, that flap would be integral to the inner bum padding. Maybe if my back plate were longer, I would be okay removing that. Again- I want all the protection possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoalNet Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 On the CCM pants, it would be very easy to remove and would not effect any other pads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Warrior, it would be pretty easy. We should probably call that the spine padding rather than tailbone padding, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was honestly really confused why anyone would want to remove that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually spine protector on player pants at least. Tailbone pad is the one that you literally sit on. You know, where your tailbone is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
