craig Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 My new mask from Michel. Such a pleasure to work with. Giguere mould Extended chin Roy vent pattern Roy backplate Roy cage Lefebvre style clips 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamelinGraphix Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 going for my 5th paint repair/repaint since 2007, going to keep the same color as I love the "Roy" theme. Aebischer mold, chin sling. Never had any damage after all this time, only paint chips and bent cages. And believe me I got a LOT of shots to the head through the years. First time was gloss white with blue cage, the standard. I believe I got it repainted once the same. Second was matte white, the flavor of the day. Third and current is Red with blue cage and backplate and white window, the "Roy". I'll keep the same look. I always add some vinyl to the mask to have some fun, must've changed 10 times over the years. Last 5 years where the Roy pinstripe to match the colors. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holdUP Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Time for a new cage on my Protechsport mask.... Anyone know if any off-the-shelf cages fit, or do I need to get in touch with Michel to have him send me one? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most cases I don't think there's an off-the-shelf cage that will fit, so probably best to contact Michel. His cage prices are pretty low too, only $90CAD I believe which is the cheapest I've seen for a new cage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check with Michel but goalieparts sell cages for his masks (which are OTNY). But if you're ordering from them you might as well order from Michel instead.

SaveByRichter35 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Dooooooo it guys. I love this mask. I have always wanted a Harrison and this is the next best thing. My only gripe is that the Potvin is a long cage mask. I would have preferred a short cage. Minor details though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the most open I can get without going Mage/Coveted style combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the picture of my mask that you posted above and then look at this McLean mask, you can see the difference in the length of the cage/window. Look how much longer that middle bar is once it starts bending in again. You can even see the difference compared to my Pro's Choice in the same picture. McLean is a better apples to apples comparison though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said make mine just like SavebyRichter’s... Kidding! Full Kevlar Black Hidden straps, double vent backplate White - may go matte white to see what that looks like for kicks, since I’m going to wrap it anyways Extra Cateye (rather have one on hand) Think that was it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanniek71 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) Actually I left out some stuff, here’s the full deets: Potvin Mold: Full Kevlar White paint Chin Cup Black foam Interior Cat eye cage + 1 extra cat eye cage Triangular vent holes Black harness - hidden harness Vented backplate with the 2 triangular vents at the top I may ask him to include the stuff for a chin sling too, never tried one before but not ready to plunge in 100% without checking it out first Edited March 17, 2021 by Vanniek71 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only differences I have are chin sling and I went with a standard harness since I ended up making my own outsider straps. Good choice on the full Kevlar, I love mine. Smart to get a second cage too, I wish I thought of that. Its inevitable that its going to get dented and need to be replaced. At least you avoid any downtime you'd have waiting for a new one to ship. What did he quote you on wait time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the timer starts when he gets the mold or payment, whichever gets there first. I’ve got a pretty new Shark 954 so not in a hurry. This was purely a lust and impulse buy, but I’m sure this will become my main mask once I have it. My plaster wraps come tomorrow I think I will ask for a sling as well. May as well try it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a lust buy for me as well at the time. Since getting Harrison shell Protechsport I've used it more than my Pro's Choice lol. There are a few factors for that reason though, its not only because I like it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
