When I tried them on, I could see to top of my shoulder and the top of my arm was only covered by the air knit that attached the arm to the shoulder. It didn't feel like there was much if any padding to cover where my shoulder and arm meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was just no padding that hugged around the shoulder if that makes sense? The floater covered my shoulder from the front but there was no wrap around the arm / top of shoulder. Worried it would leave it exposed in VH and post play when you're not perfectly squared up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what it looked like, was just really weird to look to the side and see so much exposed shoulder. Really want to love this chest, ordered the pads / gloves yesterday. Was planning to buy the pants (feel absolutely amazing in store) and the chest. But after trying on the C/A I'm leaning more towards a subzero 3 (with optik arms would be ideal) if thats possible or a Gen 2 Passau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it a full production model, or possibly a prototype? I was planning on ordering a stock one as soon as they are released in a week or so, but I may wait for some reviews now. Thank you for the information. -steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopaloop1234 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 The Velcro adjustments for both the arms and the elbow floaters are a good +1 in my books. Looks like a good unit. Aside from the shoulder floaters it doesn't look too different then current C/A's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ensures the suspends stay over the floaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
