 Posted: Thu Dec 24, 2009 5:42 am Post subject: Reebok Revoke VS. P3 |
 |
|
I'm considering some new pads, but I have to make a decision between set of red and white revoke's or red white and black P3's.
Any suggestions regrading performance, feel etc?
vs
By the way, I have yet to decide breaks, and the size is not going to be 35" but 31" |

Revoke is a customizable P3 9k. The Premier IIIs are pro quality pads.
The rest should be self explanatory. |

Hm.... I'm thinking that I'll go with the Revokes on this occasion.
But before I choose, does anybody know some good pads on the market that I might consider?
FYI, they need to be from http://www.thehockeyshop.com/Goalie-us.htm because GoalieMonkey doesn't ship to where I live, and I've used THS before |

I've honestly heard nothing bad about the Revokes, and all the reviews are green. I honestly think that these pads will be a near perfect fit for you

You're going to believe a sight that lists Marty Turco and blah blah blah as being Revoke users? Take a closer look. Those are PIII Special Editions, not Revokes.
The difference in revokes is 7k and 9k and yes they're produced in Canada which is about the only difference between it's standard 7k/9k counterpart. btw, all pads are "hand-crafted" with machinery. Reebok just shut down another plant so I highly doubt they're as involved as most companies with actual hands on pads labor. |

I have a suggestion. Go shop around for pads. It obviously sounds like you aren't ready to be making a purchase yet, as you asked for other considerations. When you've found that pad, then nobody else's opinion will matter to you on what pad you should get.
To answer your question in short: Try out Brian's DX2s. I absolutely love mine. I went from Vaughn, and I wouldn't want any other pad out on the market. It's all a matter of preference, and playing style though.

I'm getting proper Revoke's, that was just the only picture I had at the time.
And FYI, I'm getting Revoke's. |

You have got to be kidding me.
This is why people who don't know for sure shouldn't post.
The REVOKE Pro Zone is a pad made in the Lefevre factory with set customizable features.
It can be built with the REVOKE or P3 graphic. |
