Glad to hear about the arm mobility, but my other pet peeve when I've looked at upgrading is I can't stand it if the chin of my mask is restricted by the floaters. I want the absolute opposite of what Matt Murray seems to want. Thanks! The only time I had a problem with it was when I had just changed my dangler and it was lower than I usually have it but since I fixed that I have no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethanallen Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 The HL felt like a second skin in the middle of the second stick n puck. Gramps can still shoot a bomb at the age of 72, and I didn't feel much, but was fully aware of the puck. If you need a chestie and want to save a few bucks, don't sleep on this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Has anyone had the luxury of comparing a Brians sr medium and a bauer sr medium or large side by side? If so would love to hear how they fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add the Russian Spec to a custom Brown chesty and no matter what level of shots you are facing, you won't feel a thing. Will 2nd this have only had my Brown a short time, but have not felt a thing since I have. It’s warmer but not hot as some have said, and arm mobility is surprisingly considering some of the warnings/stiffness I had been given although being 6’8 having long arms maybe it’s more a leverage thing and less chance for interference with the elbow floaters.

What I am confident on is that the optik 3 is a solid unit. If I had the money to drop on one I would Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fever9990 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 I have been wearing Simmons 998 with beef up kit for over a decade the only mod i have done is lace in a set of thigh boards on the bicep and it is an absolut tank. I have played against high caliber players and have no concerns about sticking torso in front of any shooter I have faced. The thigh boards can be done with any C/A. I have done it every C/A I've had for almost 20 yrs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
