i used a full set of V3's tonight for the first time ever. i was very impressed with the pads, happy with the gloves. when i order my next set i don't think i'll get either of those gloves but they weren't terrible. the palm of the blocker felt a little small, and i don't have big hands. my middle finger was a little long for the glove and my finger tip was bent a little pushing into the mesh cap on the finger. it was noticeably annoying the sidewall seemed a little bit flimsy aswell. the sidewall on my SE2 feels like its built quite a bit stronger. the glove.. i guess is just a V3 glove. most people dont like it. it seems like it would be alright after using it for awhile, but even still, i'm not going to put in that effort when i already know of other gloves that will feel VERY good after much less use.

i did love the pads though. the knee stacks are piled pretty high. the leg channel felt nice. it was great to get myself into a pair of thigh boards again. the boot is a lot shorter than my SE3 pads which i liked a lot. just an overall solid pad. probably my next set
