There is clearly a beautifying or smoothing effect from the camera in those first photos.  Agreed the last photo makes a night and day difference.

Found just the glove I was thinking of.

I thought the name Axis sounded a bit roller hockey, but that looks 100% inline lol.  Love inline, don't get me wrong, but many many years ago on GSBB this... Well this just didn't happen on ice.  Gotta find a Tour or Mission goalie pic now.  Still excited to see what's new.  RBK was my pad before Warrior and I wanted to see a modernized Premier pad.  But with the split at CCM, lots of possibilities.

Also:

What is up with the top of the pad?

My 24.5" CR3 is the same as my CCM 25" to help with reference.

Fair enough, ive been practicing in my garage in with no glove as much as possible and made huge improvements since starting and still using my Simmons 996.  When the time comes, I think I want the Warrior, but just want to know what liner to get. So you jumped to a 90 from a 60 and hated it?  What do you use now?  I grew up playimg baseball before playing goalie so I catch like a ballplayer if that's an applicable comparison versus the other breaks?  I'm not sure.

VOGoalie has a cool video on changing his Warrior G4 60 degree (baseball/60 degree) to a 90 degree liner and how much the fingers to palm is so much better for the Turco style.  As a 10+ year Simmons glove set user (pretty sure my 996 glove is a 60 degree), I've really been wanting to try a 90 degree glove now that I've been working at my puck handling the past few months.  But not sure how catching and transitioning will work.  Only one way I can find out...hopefully I can try someone's glove locally.

Turkey carved/knife set.  Lace handles.

Simmons 995 C/A with a webbed key-chain sewn to the inside belly that connects to some 10 year old Vaughn Senior pants with a mini-carabiner.  The back has a bungee cord loop w/carabiner tied to a strap guide on the C/A which attaches to a loop on the back of the pants.  Untucked but no chance for gaps.
