ZeroGravitas Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 The green is a refreshing change from the yellow, IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatCarGuy Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Looks like they changed absolutely nothing besides the color, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamWardFan Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Not much reason to change. I wear both in the previous generation and they are tanks in protection, amazing amount of coverage, but still are highly mobile. Combined with the Pro + knee pads that tie in perfectly to the pants, an unbeatable combination.......never even had one stinger playing against pretty high level shots...........

WONGER Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 If the CA is a tad smaller I'd probably pick one up to replace my RX3pro+, it can be difficult to fit in jerseys with the current one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdeFIN Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Is there something extra or added to the bicep area? Looks like it is block by block design but was it already in X3? Atleast X3 had that extra flap going from wrist to bicep adding some extra to elbow too. GT2/G5 in comparison is/was with one piece bicep protection.

WONGER Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I went and picked up the non pro+ ca today so I could fit better (or at all) in all my jerseys. This is pretty much the same as the RX3 I think, at least it's not grey and wont get nasty looking in 3 months. Size aside it feels just as protective as my RX3Pro+ which they advertise to be the case. I held the RF2 pro helmet which seemed the same to me. The shell might have different materials but the foams inside didn't seem noticeably different. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 If the shoulder caps weren't so big and smaller arm blocks, i'd consider one for sure. It just looks too oversized for my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can see in their story is that the Pro+ has a horizontal bar that goes across the elbow floater that adds rigidity. First picture is the Pro+ where you can see the plastic that spans across. Second picture is the Pro where this is absent. It almost looks like the Pro+ adds space between the floaters and your arms. Similar to how the old mechanical arms functioned. I don't know fi the the RX3 line was the same either, but I'd guess maybe.
