I know this has been posted sooo many times, but was this graphic ever offered by Vaughn? I saw a kid at the Rockville Ice Arena in Rockville, MD leaving with these over his shoulder, same color scheme and all... You on this board, kid?

Lol yea, at the level your playing at maybe you should consider knee pads. One of the best moves i ever made. It helps closure in the butterfly and its just a lot more comfortable comparing to thigh boards which at times can get caught up in your pants and cause real headaches. A question, Why do some people have only 2 breaks in their vaughn pads? What does it do for them? I attached a picture to help better comunicate what my quesion is.

the single break stiffens up the upper portion of the pad and really changes how the pad feels. I dont know how to explain it and I guess its due to the pad being stiffer but the velocitys feel much better to me with the single break. They feel alot like the old koho's

Even if I didn't wear thighboards on my pads I'd still get them. Thighboards = selling material = money.

Hey everyone! Just wondering if any of you are waiting on Vaughn gear and how long you've been waiting for. I was initially told that I'd get my blocker in mid July. But right now, it appears that Vaughn is still making my blocker and it's been about 13 weeks.

if any one gets v3s DO NOT GET A SINGLE BREAK i have all3 breaks and it is already stiff(still flexible)but i believe if you get just the 2 breaks it wil be wayyyy to stif

I have my gear set up fairly similiar to the v3s but with a few tweeks to make em more my style but with the single break and I love it. Some people just like a stiff pad me being one of them. and even with the other breaks their and the pad being stiff then the stock v2 it doesnt feel the same as a pad with one break.
