Are you taking them or sending them back? In the process of deciding what im going to do.... Buddy from the store that ordered them is in convo with Vaughn... so we will see. I'm a little steamy right now as you could imagine, but i really cant wait another 4.5 months to get the right gloves either... decisions decisions...

seagoal Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Yeah, I hear you. In screw-up situations they can put a rush on them, supposedly. Sorry, man. It's so disappointing when they can't just follow a spec sheet. There shouldn't be any errors if they stop to have a look at each piece, step by step.

Update to the update... the stitching faux pas might have been due to the guy ordering them not specifying the request (even though he also ordered my pads for me at the same time).... He is seeing if he can now pay out of pocket to have the issue corrected.... faaaaaaaaaaack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Ah. So, some heat off of Vaughn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 When Vaughn screwed up my pads they took them back and I had a new pair in about a month iirc. Definitely shouldn't have to wait the full time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doobiesnax Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 that was me earlier.... cooler heads have prevailed .... Chalk it up as my first world problem for the day. At this point i just really need new mitts, and those ones do look pretty deadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, the thread on your pads will be black eventually if you do your job well in the net just sayin'.

CJV31 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Those are a sweet set, not sure what your pads look like but hard to go wrong with those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doobiesnax Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 It’s a festivus miracle!!! Buddy from the store through in 2 premiere composite twigs for free as well. Build is solid as. This blocker is like sticking your hand in a pillow, so comfy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Wow, they look so good with those pads. So awesome you got two free sticks. Great move on their part. I fully understand about the blocker. The first time I put my hand in my new VE8 blocker i was quite amazed at how comfortable it was. The pad on top of the backhand is so good and keeps the blocker really snug and stiff feeling, which i really enjoy. Rebounds come off it really hot. Are you going to bake the glove?

seagoal Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 180 degrees for 6-7 minutes are the specs from Vaughn. Keep the backhand open and loose. Once done put your hand in and strap it tight how you'd want it in a game. My glove was perfectly game ready after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the gear is still very similar and most people wouldn't catch the difference, I wouldn't mind that trade off at all. Did you get to pick the stick you wanted or are those just what he offered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard of baking skates and I assume it does the same thing for gloves and blockers. Does baking the glove allow for better/easier closure?

Heat up the thing until the thing conforms to your shape and softens so it breaks in quick. It's what Vaughn calls Heat Moldable. You can use this method instead of using hot water, for example.

Yzueblin Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 hi guys , did you know if it's possible to ask to vaughn a ventus pads but with the graphic from the V8 pads ? i prefer a stiff pads but i don't really like the ventus graphic versus the V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Pretty sure that's a No. The VE8 graphic does not seem to be transferable at all to the public right now. You could just give them a call and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
