Are these recent wait times? If so I'm a bit surprised considering they don't seem to be a hot commodity in the nhl anymore.

It's held up well in the year plus that I've owned this. Coming from a beefed up brown I've definitely gotten my fair share of stingers in this unit. The two main issues i've been having is the odor and the outer arm flaps sometimes fold and get tucked inward. Not sure if that issue is because this unit isn't made off of my measurements.

Can't give any advice for fixing it as I'm not too handy with the sewing machine. You could also look into bringing it into a shop that'll fix it but depending on the price you might as well get a new one. If you're looking for a new jock I recently made the jump to the Vaughn Ventus SLR Pro Carbon Double Cup.

I'm told it's a Hutton return with Hellebuyck arms.

Good to hear, I was a bit skeptical when I first got it and played around with the strapping. Coming from a Brown chest protector I'm not use to having all the strapping options at the back. I don't hear very many people talking about Kenesky's chesties anymore.

I made a few posts about the situation on the Brown chest protector thread back in November. Long story short he didn't want to make me a streamlined version.

I've always liked the Osgood and Cloutier look, I get flak from the guys for wanting that combo look. I guess there's not a lot of 20-30 year old guys that dig that style. I recently just got a Coveted 2 piece combo and I'm loving it so far, in all honesty besides the better vision and fit to my head I cant notice a huge difference coming from my old Eddy mask.

So can anyone update how their PP1's are holding up in the long run? After a failed attempt at getting a streamlined chestie made by Brown I put my name on the waitlist in Nov for a PP1. I saw Mike post a pro return up for sale on his facebook page, I ended up biting the bullet and buying it since the measurements were similar to my current Brown. I'll post some pictures of it shortly.

You just get that off of sideline swap? That might have been the one I was contemplating buying.

I use to tuck but have since gotten smaller sized pants that fit perfectly without suspenders. Now I leave my c/a untucked and I tie the front of my pants and c/a together.

Small world eh. Yea I saw he and his wife have a baby boy now, he use to light me up during our old roller days.

Nice, its great to see that hockey is alive and well over there. The guy I see out here is named Howard (Howie) and the buddy of mine out your way is named Jasper.

You by any chance play with any HK national team guys up there? A friend of mine use to play for HK and is living there right now, I also shoot around with one guy here in Vancouver.

I'd say my elbows and the elastics are a happy medium between tight and loose and I like the wrists on the tighter end. I haven't had to touch any of the elastics for years.

I recall having the same thing happening when I first got my 2400. I use to tuck when I had bigger pants as well as use suspenders. My chest protector is now around 5 years old and I don't have that issue anymore. With time it'll loosen up and feel like it's a part of you. Only thing I find is that the arms are still not as mobile as I'd like, but I think that has to do with the Russian spec arm protection.
