The customizer accidentally leaked for a little bit today. Have to say I'm not a fan of the trend of cutting the pad face in half.

Is that @TGC-Rance's dirty hand in your glove???

I know it feels a little different but its definitely a 590. From InGoal: Vapor 2X Pro glove closes more like a CCM 590, with a 60-degree break and the fingers pulling more into to the base of the thumb or palm. Vs the 2S Pro closes more like a CCM 600 or Vaughn 5500 break, with the fingertips pulling to the end of the thumb.

First skate tonight.. overall impression... WOW. @TheGoalNet was right, this unit simply gets it done. Feeling of an old unit you've been wearing for years right out of the box. Arms are super flexible but still offer solid protection. No stingers, you feel the shot but thats it. Took 2 really solid rips to my right pec and left arm with no issues. Did have one goal skip off the left floater but i think that was poor technique on my part. Materials are top notch and I definitely was not as hot as my GT pro.

V1SE for the win...

580 is notorious for being the best at puckhandling. It's preference on how you hold your stick (although most goalies use the Turco method). From InGoal:

Stiffer than those. Max is stiffer than FLY or the IV "1" with HD foam upgrade

He added lexan to the IV TGN spec so I'm guessing he's comfortable with the extra weight

Not much as of yet. Rumblings I've heard is improved arm protection and the new floater design.

Just remember that new pads will play differently especially with the hypercomp in the face. You'll likely wanna ditch the boot strap and the pad will sit higher. Warrior also doesn't move the knee block up a full inch on the 37 vs a 38. It's 1.2" at the knee and 1/2" on the thigh. Best off to try some on at a store or deal with one of the better retailers. I highly recommend @TGC-Rance and the fellas at the Goalie Crease. They'll be able to take care of all your questions and size you up right

Warrior sizing strictly goes by a Foot to Knee measurement. Its really foolproof The other thing to remember that new pads will feel and fit far different than your V3s. Take your skates and maybe your pants to help fit proper. But the fit chart is dead on. I'm a 19.75 FTK and I wear a 33+1.5 with no boot strap. The other recommendation I would make is getting an elastic toe tie. The Warrior ARS is okay, it can be snug. Pro Laces has a 10% off sale right now with a "TRAVSUCKS" coupon code. I have GT Pros and love them (and your hips, knee and ankles will thank you):
