WillyGrips13 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Honestly, there are no extras NEEDED on a Brown CA. In other words, buying the 2400 model as is (to your measurements of course) is $839.95 Canadian which currently is $606.05 USD. Similarly the 2200 model is $829.95 Canadian which is currently $598.83 USD. 2000 model is $819.95 Canadian which is currently $591.62 USD. As you can see, it’s actually not that expensive relative to the other too pro models. Plus, you can occasionally find a used one on the secondhand market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 (edited) Here's a good interview at Vaughn breaking down the V10 and SLR3 leg pads. @moore00 Edited May 31 by seagoal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemieux Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Had a chance to try out the Vaughn Velocity V10 Pro Carbon, including the XP 70 degree catcher and XP blocker. To add to what's been said, I understand that for the V10 line, the XP gloves not part of the stock offerings and are a custom order product (though it appears that some retailers have ordered XP catchers to have available to customers right away). And the XP catcher has two main options: 60 degrees (as it has been in the past) and now the new 70 degree break, which is a more vertical break, which is meant to be in the style of the 580 break. An interesting thing that I saw on the XP catcher is that there was a tag to mark the break of the glove, and the listed boxes were 50, 55, 60, and 70! Not sure which stock gloves offer which breaks, though it at least looks like Vaughn has an internal naming convention for some of their offerings. Wish there was more said to explain what it all means. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The regular 60deg glove was a fantastic glove and I was super impressed by it. It was probably the best glove I've tried on in a long time. The pads were/are a huge step in the right direction, to the point that I would call them very good. The stiffness they've added to the thighs is finally stiff and not "Vaughn stiff." but the ones I tried on were far too big for me.

The knee block is still looking pretty loose and wobbly, what was your impression? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's integrated into the face of the pad now, so I'd say it's most comparable to the Stabiliflex style block. It was more rigid than my GNetikV and the PX3s I tried on. What I learned the most from the V10 pad is that I am excited for the SLR4 pad. The V10 is very good and addressed a lot of criticism Vaughn has been facing while staying loyal to their userbase. The changes they've implemented (making the boot shallow, streamlining the strapping, continued progress on the integrated knee blocks, improved thigh rigidity) moving forward into the SLR4 will prove to be important and well functioning.
