[Hab]

Wow....great to know I am not the only fool to spend dollars on good quality ball hockey gear. I too have gradually upgraded my gear from my kids old street hockey stuff to medium quality gear. I wont list here what I have but I do have a question on a problem I have with my most recent purcahse.
I just bought a set of Itech 7.8 Vamps. They are great pads and felt wonderful in the store. HOWEVER, they do JAM when I try to move, especially side to side when someone is behind the net. The problem seems to be that they are too close to the floor (no skate blade on sneakers!). This particular pad has a fairly large protrusion over the toes so maybe that is why. I love the pads otherwise & can't return them now. Just got them last week & only used them once so far so maybe I will get used to them. Anyone else have the same problem or ideas on how to fix it?
