Best way to pull up true pads that possess FRS

[Dave]

Good day goalies,

I am currently wearing Px3 pads that has thr FRS system and I am looking to pull the pad up and I have done the following to do so:

- Tight the top FRS strap;

- Boot strap on the lundy loop; and

- attahched the knee block Elastic to the mid part of the pads.

Still need to gain a little bit of thigh rise... any idea how I could do that?

 

Thank you

What is your toe tie setup? Tight elastic wont allow them to sit too high

For me, a tighter bottom FRS strap and long skate lace toe tie help the pad sit up quite high

Or add a 3rd party professor strap?

Good point, I forgot to mention my toe tie setup is skate laces with aprox 4inch gap.

Thank you for the info, FRS needs definitely some adjustment period.

Saw a post a while back from Jorg, the pro rep for True.

He said most of his guys using the FRS that want the pad to sit higher go with the tighter top FRS (makes sense as the top of the calf is bigger than the bottom)

My wedgewood 12.2 returns came with the smaller strap on the bottom and longer on top. I switched those around and tightened them all the way down. I felt I needed a bit more tightening up top so I cut down about half an inch of the adjustment side and resewed and they sit how I like them to .
