1. That's a hell of a last name

2. The right leg pad looks like it's already indented. Is that just an illusion?

French Canadian + divorced parents = incredebly weird last names .

Imagine me in the NHL, the tv announcer would've a hard time saying it

@coopaloop1234 would be hard to build a pad without any form of lacing, glue couldn't withstand the shear stress that flexing the pads creates.

Shear Stress is a force acting inside an object due to a physical deflection or weight, it's what cause the paper to seperate when you tear it in half.

@coopaloop1234 that's exactly what I was talking about, and I think that the defective equipment were of the vapor line....not sure how the 2s stuff is, but it doesn't look good.

The reason you see the laces "denting" the pads is because there is very little air betweed the cortech and the core, almost  like they pull the air out before sewning everything togheter. I suppose having the laces exposed was the alternative option. Honestly, exposed lacing on a pad this flat would be worse looking than small wrinkes and denting . There are small wrinkles on a few edges close to the bindings and welting area, some set have those on the face of the pad. I guess I got lucky here.

So after a long wait, here is my first ever Bauer setup. I considered the totalONEs when i was younger and went with P4s instead. I'm kinda glad I waited for these

This is the white/blue/red colorway!

Does anyone else with the 1x blocker feel like the index finger protection is too bulky? The index finger sidewall keeps catching on the grip coating on my 1s stick so it never slides all the way up the shaft. I think a lot of it has to do with how the 1s stick has no weight in the blade to give it momentum. But it sure is annoying to have to do two movements to get my blacker hand all the way to the knob.

Any ideas?

sell it and get a supreme blocker

So maybe the guys above will have a different answer, but my local shop said I'm S.O.L. for acquiring any replacement parts for the C2 as apparently Bauer doesn't support the helmet line through parts sales anymore.

Pretty disappointing to find out. One of the S.A.W. pieces is on it's way out, so either I need to figure out some sort of replacement or retire the bucket. The latter is definitely something I'm not looking forward to. 

I checked in with Bauer, the is no more components for the concept mask in production. This line of mask is pretty much a commercial failure.

Picked them up this morning, but had to spend the day doing things outside with other people, so just getting settled now. 

Pretty psyched. Knee blocks are way sturdier, the glove is already more broken in than my 1S was. Get to take them on the ice Monday night. 

Is that navy or blue?

Stop posting that stick!!! I’m about to sell my Fazio and get one. The gold would match our jerseys and the blackish Textreme would be better for #BlackTapeBandits 

You posted the demo I had in the youtube video you made a while back; the textreme is still silver, just with a gloss clear overlay all throughout the paddle, making the lighter squares lighter and the darker squares darker. In other words, that added a layer to protect the graphic in the front and back!

I always recommend looking at a smaller guys like Protechsport, Masked Marvels, etc instead of the lower end masks from the big boys. 

Your fit question all set?

yeah thanks!

It’s more narrow than the NME

pleas tell us you are not buying a 950?

NO!!! The 950x is one of the mask  I sell the most in the bauer family, I just assumed I'd have more answers than just asking for the XPM.

Anyone knows if a bauer profile mask 950x or 960 xpm in s/m will fit tighter than an nme pro in fit 1?

Anyone have a photo or link showing what the colors look like?

Colors are:

• Red
• Blue (toronto)
• Navy (CBJ)
• Antique/Vegas Gold
• Stock (black with a silver design on the shaft)

Also work in retail. Anyway I ordered Premier 2 stuff, Bauer isn't my cup of tea.

I honestly hesitated between a darker ef3 set and the supremes, but i went with bauer since i had demos and they felt great!

Heard the same thing, like October-ish.

I work at retail; I was told late 2018, but definitely before 2019, so if you like the pads but not the graphic, I recommend you wait a bit.

I ordered a 2s Pro set size small with intermediate palm on the blocker. I also got angled knee block, soft boot flex, and sewn in outer knee flap on the pads.

What size do you use in other brands? Some say that ccms fit taller but the small (2s) I tried were so tall that it led me to order XS!

I REALLY like that colour scheme. And I think it will look even better in person.

How come you went for an INT blocker palm and not an INT glove palm? You'll get better closure if you go for an INT palm if your hands are on the smaller side. 

It is not an available option apparently, i tried the glove and it wasn't that bad, I will hopefully find a way around it!
The blocker palm is huge in bauers compared to the glove.

what is emboss

it's the weave material used by a few pros

So here's my 2sPRO setup, I ordered XS, all stock spec except for an intermediate palm on the blocker!

@goalieNo this is emboss

So that is my setup with both of my home (Navy) and away jerseys!!
