Yeah, that's the same guy I've bought from. Good seller and very honest (imo) w/r/t the gear I've got from him.

I see what you mean. He must be using both - or maybe he's now using a 1-piece only? Not sure but my set is exactly like the ones he has on in this game pic (2-piece EF3 glove and same blocker w/ same colorway/zones ).

ah cool. valry needs to match a set holy crap lol blue logo on the pads purple logos on the blocker and a colored glove

Wouldn't be interested in changing a colour on a composite stick. But hey, it's a creative idea though ! 

yeah lol

if you wanted the blue stick you could check out the p 2.9 or whatever the mid price point is

Would be better off using a sheet of vinyl than padskinz on a stick lol

yeah prob, or paint it lol

I've found pictures of it, just not availible. And it would need to be at a price I feel comfortable paying... So I may need to wait awhile

Those look reeeeeeal nice. I was looking to pickup a P2 stick but haven't seen a colour combo that would go with my white/royal blue setup. If I had a black base, however, these would be my first choice. 

you could use padskinz on the stick maybe? not on the grip area but it prob could work on the paddle

@Max27 good eye. A guy on Sideline Swap gets a bunch of his returns. Grabbed one a few months back and been very happy w it.

yeah ik who youre talking about. i think their name is like SNFrishman or something like that. He told me he has connections to some sports teams and gets a lot of their pro stock gear. only thing abt that being varlys glove is thats a 2 piece and varlys glove is a 1 piece. @dstew29 is that a demo from him or just his colorway?

this is a pic of his 1 piece, which means its likely a demo glove from him trying a 2pc or just an ef3 glove in his colorway

The ghetto-ness runs deep

UPDATE: so I used the channel locks along the “crease” approx. at each finger stall and can say this has definitely sped up the process. Did this for a few days then back to alternating between stretcher and hot glove wrap (with a few tennis balls in the pocket). Much snappier than its ever been. See video:

is that Varlamov pro return?

i still tie my glove with lace. pain in the ass imo but still works.

1S is a lot closer to the CCM 600 break than the 590. I knew I didn't like the 600 but I figured I would try the 1S but it felt exactly the same to me. I don't know what the exact degree breaks are on the two gloves but I'd say 1S is 70-75 and the 1X is 60 since it feels exactly like every Reebok/CCM 590 I've owned.

ah gotcha, i saw on pure goalie that the break for the 1s and the lower price points was closer to a 60 degree break(590)

Just can’t get used to anything other than a 590 style break so hopefully switching from the 1S to the 1X fixes that. Picked this one up for a pretty good deal on sideline. 

I thought that the 1s has a 590 too?

Buttendz flux grip.

i had tried the twirl 88 with a taped on knob but the grip frayed like crazy so i sold it to my friend. I taped how price tapes so i found this would be the closest to what i did when i taped. 

Has anyone used the mask brand Coveted? If so, are they any good?

Two long months wait!

are those crawfords?

I just want to add one more quick thing to my first impressions, even though the glove looks pretty used, its still kinda stiff, but a little more use should do the trick! thanks for reading my essay on my new gloves everyone.

@TheGoalNet notice anything?

Pro Return Thomas Greiss Blocker and Glove. At practice today I took a shot and it hit the tee and broke it off. Crazy that it happened, but I was in need of a new glove. I got them on a hell of a deal, 350 for both the glove and blocker straight from the Isles pro shop. Will post my first impressions on the Vaughn Forum in a little while, I have some stuff to do right now.
