Posted: Fri May 28, 2010 4:42 pm Post subject: My New 2010 Viper BOA Trapper & Blocker |
|
|
Well the the postman drop off a box for me sometime Wednesday, and inside was my new Viper Gloves! I won't be playing with them on ice until early Sept. so no real review until then, but I can post some eye candy pics now
I started off with a set from James' clearance area of 2009 BOA, but as the process moved along and I ordered a set of pads to match things morphed into the 2010 BOA gloves with the modified Fang (or Fang-2 as I call it) graphic. The colours turned out great and match my new lid great. Out of the box I'm very impressed with the gloves, it's been over 12 years since my last new gloves......and lets just say the technology has come a long way! The new gloves are much lighter, and also the new NHL spec's so much small. The trapper has the one piece cuff so this is new, but really doesn't fell that much different on my hand. The break is also a little different to my Kay trapper, so it will take a little getting use too (I will miss the finger ridge). The biggest thing for the blocker will be getting use the the extra finger protection, seems like a lot more stuff around my finger when holding a stick. I'm sure this is a good thing and will save my fingers, but will take some adjustment to get use to.
OK enough with the words, and more with the pictures!

|
|
Well I got my new Battram gear in the mail today, it will work nice with the rest of my new gear when it arrives (mask & gloves here, waiting for pads, C/A and Pants).
It will be a while be for I get it on the ice, but will do a review of it then. Out of the box the first thing I noticed was this baby has some serious weight to it compared to the off the rack collars........but this is what you get when you go with gel. However it doesn't feel heavy when you wear it, as it's balanced nice when in place. It fits nicely with my new Combo from Ron (CovetedMask) doesn't affect the way the mask sit at all (which is perfect, sill have the awesome sight lines!) It will take some time to get use to wearing it, coming from a dangler I'm not use to having anything around my neck when I play. But I've been wearing it around the house (Yup new gear dork) and I think once I start playing I won't even notice it.....well maybe after a game or two of playing with it.
As for the craftsmanship, like all of Scott's work top notch. It was fast too, even with the custom graphic. Just a few days over 2 weeks from my first email to Scott until it's in my hands......and that includes a long weekend in there!

Posted: Thu Jul 29, 2010 2:29 pm Post subject: My 2010 Venom Pads with Tribal Graphic |
|
|
Well the wait is over the post man brought my Pads today........came to Calgary via Sudbury, but they made it here!
The first thing I noticed out of the box was how light they are......much lighter than my Kay pads thats for sure.....I would say about 1 lbs per pad.
The pads are the stock Venom, with the Tribal graphic in my team colours and a sliding toe bridge. The pads are made to fit an ATK of 16" - 17" (stock 33" Venom pad) The over all size of the pads is 35" measured along the face of the pad (so pretty much a 33" +2"). My ATK is 15.75, so its a pretty close fit......giving me a little room to grow LOL
And now for the pictures........

This kid literally eats, sleeps and lives to play Goal. I taught him the basics of Standup, Hybrid and Butterfly. After watching some drills of all three, he immediately decided Hybrid was the best System. (Smart guy eh?)
