It makes it much harder. I've had two injuries that happened after I ordered new gear. Once in high school with a surgery on my back for a pilonidal sisst, took a year to recover. Then last year my miniscus tore, tried playing 3 weeks later but it had tear again. Then through a series of trying to let it heal for 9 months and trying to play again, having it re agrevate after two months, and now waiting for surgery, I have not had the chance to play a lot lately.

Basically they suck unless you use either A: a garter to hold them in the perfect spot or B: use helmet foam to put a layer on the surface that your knee leans against when going down(shown in this picture). Once you do either of those things it's a great pair of knee guards, just make sure they sit correctly otherwise the inside peice of the Curv composite will dig into your leg. For the chesty I had a ton of people saying why bother, but I needed it customed anyway to get L body with XL arms, and colours cost no extra. There's is also a suprise on the pads when they come in. I haven't told too many people about it.

Actually that is for player skates. Goalie skates will have a different fit from each other once the 2X comes out. 1S and 1X should fit the same it's just the tech on it that makes it feel slightly different.

Got to try this out cause I'm waiting for my OPT1K to come in. Very impressed with it. Love the ability to seal the puck against the ribs, mobility was great for a first use, and the adjustments are awesome. Only flaw I found was how hard rebounds would shoot off it. Took a Slapshot square in the chest and it looked like the puck came off a 2S pro blocker.
