Taco Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Here...found this while randomly clicking on the protechsport site.Mask Gallery If I recall, his Belfour model isn't quite like the original Harrison type that was seen earlier in this thread. Belfour's mask started as a Harrison and then he went to Warwick. I am not exactly sure why it is called the Belfour; maybe it was a mask that he tried in practice and didn't like and the name stuck. I do recall in the GSBB that Chakal had an original Protechsport that closely resembled the Belfour model that he used in Junior hockey. In the gallery, the 1990B appears to be the Martin Brodeur shape. The 1980R appears to be the Roy shape (my mask before paint is in the gallery as the white mask with the blue cage - it has since been painted and looks completely different. I'll try to post updated photos later). The 1980-90H appears to have the Belfour model in it (the blue mask and the grey/red one particularly). In that gallery, there is one that has some vintage striping and to me, that looks more like what you are after if you are going for the Harrison look. I'd ask Michel if he can share what that model is. Personally, the one minor detail that I have questioned is when people get the Roy, sometimes they get it with the Roy padding style which is a thin, tan rubatex that is all one thickness and applied to the entire forehead area with no sweatband (holes are cut in the padding all over) vs. his normal padding job which is the black EVA strips that we always see. Do people actually request for the Roy padding job or does he reserve that for people that are getting replicas? I see masks with custom paint on them and the real Roy padding. Always piqued my interest... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike24 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Are there still two Roy molds? The bubble forehead mid 80s and the 93ish and on Roy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 I've only seen the bulbous forehead Roy on the website. That being said, Michel is very quick with emails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike24 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I've always been curious. If Roy ever tried another brand or considered switching brands during his long Koho run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably wasn't far from switching early on during his tenure with Koho and that's how Lefevre / Leferbve got pulled in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daffy Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Not sure yet. Michel will provide opinions when my mold gets there. I said anything but the Roy or Brodeur. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveByRichter35 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Any arts and crafts store should carry them. I got mine at Michael's when I did the mold for my PC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
