hi all, there has probably been a post about this before, but just wondering what people would go for between the vaughn 7500 or the 8800?

im looking for maximum flexibility, but at the same time i dont wanna be walking around with purple bruises!!

also noticed on goaliemonkey, there is now a special edition, super flex edition and the jimmy howard spec.!

hmmm! whats u guys input?

thanks

I assume you are asking about chesty's?? If so, I have an 8800 and love it! They are both pro pads, so either one will be quality built. The 8800 is the epic model and the 7500 is the velocity 3 model. I chose the 8800 because I could get it in white. It is very comfortable and I didn't have to cut out the neck pad that usually gets up in the way and also keeps thing a little hotter while playing. I also like how it has one big snap on each side to secure it to your torso. I have had one stinger on the left forearm, but, that's only because I took a slapper from a guy about 15 feet out as he was trying a buzzer beater. Other than that, very happy so far.
