 |
|
Hello all.
I found a set of TPS Summit gear. Pads, glove and blocker for 350 canadian
The only thing that concerns me , is that will 35" be big enough for me...
I am 6'2" and 235.
From Ankle to Knee is 18"
Skate size is 8-8.5
Knee to thigh rise is 7"
Also have a set of Vaughn Vault 36+1 , glove and blocker that I am looking at also.
they are about the same price. so that is mute.
I am just getting back into it and the gear is in Solid shape was only use for one season about 2-3 times a week. Usual puck marks but straps and everything else looks good, no frays or tears. |

Your min pad height is 35
the pad you have found will put your knee in the tophalf of the landing gear, and your 5 hole will be more open than closed.
I suggest a 36+1,2, 37, 37 +1

Thank you for the information.
Been trying to be patient  .. but the bug has bitten me and I want to play again 
Been searching alot and doing alot of research and I am almost thinking going new will be the best way to do it. Or I suppose I can piece together something instead of trying to get a matching set.
If you don't mind I might post a few more things here and get your feedback on it. I know I don't need pro level gear but its been grilled into me not to cut corners on getting the right gear for whatever sport I do. |

| It's a little old, but there's lots of information on ATK and pad sizing here. |
