For those of you that got your new pads, how do they fit? Did you change sizes when you went to a Smith pad?
I'm going from a 34" vaughn to a 36". Im 6'1". My FTK is 21.25 and Knee to mid Thigh I went 9". Anyone else?

[Barren]

I went from a 36 Bionic to a 37 sp4000. I don't have my measurements handy though.. sorry. I'm 6'1" as well and my pads fit perfect!!!

I placed my order, for a pair of 1000 pads, yesterday.

We exchanged a couple of e-mails over the past two weeks and I told Pete that I had measured center of the kneecap to floor several times, just to make sure I had it right, and hit between 20.5" & 20.75" every time.
Gave him my skate size (ccm 9) and said that I hadn't decided between 9 or 10", up, from the knee.

He recommended a 36" or a 36 -1", depending on the thigh measurement that I wanted. Went with a full 36".

Just got my SP3000's today, but am on the waiting list for the glove set. OMG this is going to be a painful 9 weeks. =( But it is sooooooo gonna be worth it.

Cheers

Hey Guys,
FYI...my gear left Friday (Mar 10th). I ordered back in the 2nd week of Jan. I hope this gives people some idea were they are on the list. Pete got my pads and gloves done in around 2 weeks. It was great working with him and understood all my crazy drawings.

Hope that helps

[M-Dub]

That is sweet. That means that mine are close. Pete is very cool about working with. I have changed my order about 3 times and then back to original 3000s and all he ever says is just a simple email saying alrighty ill change your order. I ordered mine on the 20th so should be getting close.. I know he is super busy and that is great. I like when you can help out a smaller guy that does great work.

Im about to be last on this list in about ten minutes.
Only thing left to decide is white pads, or black.
SP 3000s yo!

[CA-AK#31]

I would go for the black on the 3000's, but as you can see I like black. Pete sent me a pic of my pads and gloves(i'll post later) before they were shipped out. They are SP2000's.

[RyJ Maduro]

So what's the wait time like right now? I plan on ordering this week.

[VisionQuest]

as of this morning, 8-9 weeks! Pete rules to deal with!
38" SP3000's coming up!
Gloves maybe too, will know next week about that.

After doing a bunch of research on white vs. black Im leaning more towards black as well. Doesnt seem like white gives you any real advantage, and I like the way black looks better

He said I have 4-5 weeks to decide on the color anyway.
