@Moose75 1X or X900?

either way, please review after appropriate use 

1X. I was sold on SLR pants walking in, put those on, felt how light and comfy they felt and changed my mind. Oddly, no laces in the pants. It's a stretchy material covered with that hard piece.

Will do! Just gotta make sure my groin is in order first lol

 @Moose75 thanks for sharing 

what store is that from? I had someone send me a pic of that pad on IG today and share that their local store had a sample 

what is the knee stack material by feel? Soft, hard, squishy? Grippy? 

Wesco Sports Center in Brookfield, CT.

It was interesting. It was grippy and a tad squishy, yet firm enough to feel solid. Felt pretty comfortable.

If I had to guess, I'd say it will help feel connected to the knee stack when you have on big, bulky knee guards. And while giving you a cushiony feeling to ease up the landing.

Some quick pics I got of the P2 today. I really like that material on the knee stack. 

Out with the dangerously worn in, in with the new!

I went with the one piece landing area.

This isn't the first time I've seen this, but I'm just as curious about it since it looks very interesting. What are the benefits of the one-piece landing?

I was watching CHL highlights and the peculiar back of Dominik Hrachovina's 1S pads caught my eye. Wondering if these are skinned as 1S, or are just heavily modded? He was a Warrior guy the last few seasons. Sorry for the blurry Zapruder quality.

EDIT: Here's a clear picture of the front of the pad.

C/A: Vaughn V7 Pro XF Carbon "Pro Spec" (Black and sportsgold one)

Pants: Bauer - Quinnipiac pro pants from "Chewy". I honestly don't know the model. I've had them for about 5 years. I hate new pants, so I usually just buy slightly used ones to skip break-in, then wear them until they disintegrate. 

How Do I Wear It?: I'm a tucker. I tie my pants laces into the loop on the chest protector so that it is anchored inside the pants and secure feeling. I put suspenders over the chest protector and usually keep the belt semi-tight. I like it to feel contour so I know exactly what is covering where. 

Any Issues?: No major issues. Minor ones are like one side of the suspenders coming off in play every now and then, or the chest protector popping out after a desperation save or mad scramble.

LOOOOOOOOOOVE the pulse graphic!

I do too. It grew on me after I saw what a couple of college and WHL guys had done with it.

When I was a kid I really liked the way TPS IceCaps looked and always wanted a pair, so I tried to do a modern/Vaughn version of it, haha.

@Moose75 - love that glove! I always hate how Vaughn limits the graphics of what they'll do with a glove. Glad to see you got a matching glove!

Yeah it came out awesome! One of my favorite gloves I've used, too.

Unfortunately, I don't have any action pics, but here's my current gear:
