  1. What are the max cores flex ratings?
  2. I ended up going to one of the better teams in the league in the high school draft, which is nice. I got my first game in on Friday in the 3rd period and allowed no goals, but then got my first start yesterday and allowed 6. I held them to 2 goals the first period, but i let up 2 bad bounces, a softy, and 3 PP goals. Pre season tournament was good to get to know my new team and I’m excited for this season!
  3. As far as who the lines are designed for, theyre similar. Theyre designed to be stiffer, looser fitting pads. However, from what i felt when i checked pads out in pure goalie, Stiff- 2s pro, s29 Flexible- Ef4, Optik (both chassis), P2, GT, Gnetik IV not stiff, but not soft (medium)- G4, SLR1/2, V8 Honestly, i added the s29 bc it was extremely stiff for a mid level pad. i know they have an nxg core but theyre still VERY stiff for a mid price point pad. MUCH stiffer than its competitors like the P2.9, G4 Senior, Slr pro (not pro carbon), etc Maybe i use a lot of force when flexing my pads, but i didnt find too many pads in the store to be that crazy stiff, i could flex a lot of them pretty easily.
  4. Round roll, boot angle, sliding materials 2s is much stiffer than premier, especially in the boot optik is much thinner than both, and has the really thinned out outer roll while bauer angles it and ccm has standard size still
  5. For pads i have eflex 2 760s. They’ve been the only pads I’ve ever worn. It’s gonna be a VERY big transition in to whatever pad i get next. As for gloves, i had a pair of Greiss pro returns for the past year but i was getting absolutely terrible stingers in the glove and the blocker Palm was simply too big, so i got RGT2s for my birthday with my dad! I haven’t worn one before, but it felt very nice. Very different from my NME 8 but In a very good way. The strapping is definetley different but it makes the mask sit better on my head i think. The way the Bauer sat on my head the backplate was really uneven and uncomfortable, this one sits more flush on my head. Tough shopping for helmets when you’re built like a bobblehead And, also somehow sold my NME 8 in like 10 minutes! Sold it on sideline swap for 135$. But yeah, i did some work for my parents and grandparents to get money, as well as sold some of my old gear to get funds. It also didn’t hurt that my grandma gave me 500$ for my 16th birthday as the equivalent of girls having sweet 16s. I unfortunately wasn’t able to find a place to work at outside of my house, the rink i wanted to work at only takes 18+ kids, and a shop i applied to work at didn’t ever call me back. I’m going to trades school this year to learn how to be a barber (something ive always had interest in is hair) so I’m going to try and get a job working around my local barbershop as an apprentice once i get my liscence, but beforehand try and get a job sweeping the shop or cleaning up after hours, etc. as well as applying to work as a cashier/etc. at a grocery store up the block, as they just announced they were looking for more employees.
  6. Finally don’t have a mask gap! sportmask x8 size XL Halfway done overhauling my gear, new skates, new c&a are next up, as new gloves and new mask have been addressed
  7. Thank you thank you thank you and honestly, the colors available were limiting. only GT2 seniors i could find were all white or navy. I found g4s in all colors but the color section for gt2 wasnt much. im gonna put padskinz on them I will put padskinz on them. im going to try and get the matching pads so i wanna see designs i can do with it. will either do blue and orange accents or whatever colors my team is! Im a big fan of what you can do w the graphics warrior gives so i wont be in just white for long haha
  8. not entirely sure how outer breaks would work with the no outer roll. the core they have is ridiculously soft as is, so there is no need to have outer breaks. Check their instagram out @Factorymad and they have a video of how much they flex
  9. How much ? Sorry just saw this, if you don’t have it anymore it’s fine
  10. I’ll pm you- sorry didn’t see this
  11. Max27

    R GT/2

    They did shorten the fingers to add more pocket, so that could contribute to it having a thinner feel. However, the GT2 Senior level gloves internals are the same as what you find on the R/GT1 Pro, so i doubt you would have an issue.
  12. I feel like im turtling in it, even in a small. feels way to broad around the shoulders and arms when compared to my old V7 XF. Ive tried tampering with the adjustments, which is a positive ive found in it is all the adjustability
  13. Personally, Im in the g4 senior right now and honestly im very dissapointed in it. Its crazy bulky, the protection isnt good at all, i feel every shot in it. theres a deal on a like new lt90 that im gonna likely get
  14. Ya i got a Brand new premier 2.9 stick for 30$ From him. Unreal sales Go on sideline swap and search “middlebury”
  15. @SaveByRichter35 good stuff man. id like the pic but im not able to like anything else today haha
