Vaughn V9 vs SLR 3 Comparison Photos

[badev02]

Hi everyone. I thought I would share these comparison photos that I took. 

34+2 Vaughn V9 Velocity Pro (non-carbon) 2.09kg/4.60lb

33+2 Vaughn SLR 3 Pro Carbon 2.49kg/5.46lb

SLR 3 = .4kg/.86lb heavier

 

As you'll see, the SLR 3's in a 33+2 sit about the same height wise as a 34+2 V9. 

Enjoy!

(I started peeling the plasti-dip off the v9 hence the difference in the face)

Great pictures. I never realized how angled down the V9 boot was.

is there any difference in the width of the leg channel?

Interesting. Does the SLR3 stack sit lower than the VE9 stack?

I did try on a pair of Vaughn Velocity pads, and the stack was really low at a nominal size of 34+2. (At the time, I was a 35 in Bauer, possibly a 34 in Vaughn SLR pads).
