31" Vaughn Velocity V7 Goalie Leg Pads (Used)

Preowned V7 Leg Pads Amazing Condition Unlike past Velocity leg pads that saw only small changes from version to version, the new Velocity 7 XF leg pads for 2016 are a brand new design. Though Velocity aficianados will find enough familiarity to keep them coming back to this tried and true pad, several new elements have been introduced to make the V7 the best model ever! The biggest enhancement, undoubtedly, in this year’s V7 is the removal of shredded foams at the shin and boot. Instead, the XF uses full sheet foams from toe to thigh rise for a more rigid, consistent shape (think: minimal shrinking). The foam sheets have perforated holes throughout to help it flex more easily, to also save 15% in overall pad weight. Though this pad is more rigid than past Velocity pads, the XF still has a good amount of vertical and torsional flex to keep it true to past designs. The leg channel has been made wider in the XF to aid in pad rotation, and the knee cradle is also wider to accomodate goalie’s desires for more open space here. A larger, more segmented calf wrap covers the goalie’s leg for added protection. At the boot, the heel strap has been moved higher up the pad to aid in pad rotation, and to also better accomodate goalies that use a “Lundqvist loop” setup with their goal skates. The stock pad comes with a traditional double-break, though the traditional rounded knee rolls have been removed in favor of a more modern square knee roll design for better rebound control. The pad still keeps an “over-squared” design on the inside edge / upper thigh rise to keep the pad sealed tight to the ice. Additionally, harder foams are now used on the entire inside edge to make sliding easier than ever. Additional features include: Plus 2” thigh rise standard Extended length knee lifter Dual knee straps with angled buckles Elastic adjustable leg cradle strap Cushioned inside leg cradle for leg support
