New set bauer X900 or vaughn V7 XLW

[Many]

Hi,

I just want your advice i'm hesitate between vapor X900 or the vaughn v7 xlw.

I wear normally 32 inches pads ( my current one are 32+3 passau )

The Bauer in Small size  fit me very well and are so light 

the Vaughn is 33+2, I had also try the 32+2 but seem a bit short ?  ( I have 19-19.5  FTK ) 

I'm maybe little below center but close to center with 33+2  

for the catcher i'm more toward the x900 then the two piece vaughn XLW..

what's your opinion on that ? 

thanks !

I haven’t tried Bauer, I’ve personally used CCM/Reebok in the past and now I wear all Vaughn gear, but I do know is if you’re more of a hybrid style goalie than a pure butterfly goalie, I’d go with the Vaughn pads. With the catcher if you have more of a blocking style on the cuff I would go with the Bauer.

Vaughn for sure, durability of the x900 aren’t as atrocious as the S190 but I wouldn’t take a chance.

the X900 is more protected than the vaughn XLW for sure in finer and index area , for the catcher I don't know
