Talking Ordered: TPS Summits!

YAY, I AM SO OVERJOYED! Today I put in my order form for my new TPS Summits! These are not the Sevens. I hate the Sevens. I will stand by my opinion that the Summits are the most comfortable pad on the market as of now. It is like wrapping pilows around your legs then putting a thick foam on the front. They stick right to your leg and they still rotate very well. I tried on every single Pro pad on the market, (literally) and after all of those, the Summit was the best to me. TPS's comfort is 10/10. I have very few mods. I will gladly write a review when I get my leg pillows. (which also double as my actual pillows)
P.S. I have tried these on ice and I have seen/felt no problems

Specs:

-34+1 sizing
-TPS Response calf strapping system. - with all the Summit's leg channel thingummy's, three buckles are unneeded.
- -1 inch off the knee wings. - they don't allow the thighrises to touch in the b-fly.
-Sport Gold straps

Colours:

-White
-Royal Blue
-Sport Gold
(No weave)

Wait time: 8 weeks +


-Chris

Oh, haha, I'm there way too much. It takes a lot of convincing to get the 'rents to drive to Surrey.

Nice choice, I have the TPS summit ultralight version from goaliecrease.
And they work very well..

I have 35+1 and they shut the 5 hole very nicely.
I love the thighboard/knee protection they provide...

Congrats..
Cant wait to see pics of the them . the color choices sound good..



cheers
Jim

What happened to your CMX pads, didn't like them? You may have mentioned it before but I have no memory to speak of. You should have taken out a nice insurance policy with your home insurance and I... errr someone could have stolen them while I was in town this past weekend.

Talking Drum roll...

After 10 whole weeks, I recieved my Birthday Christmas and all other holidays at once. The most comfortable pads ever. And pretty good looking if I say so myself.




Leg channel unbuckled


Buckled Leg Channel. You can clearly see the R8 strapping system. It saves so much time doing them up.



Ghost fly.



Sizing.


These pads are great. My new babies. It was so amazing when the guy took them out from the back.

And The Hockey Shop threw in a Pro return 6K stick for $30. Thanks a ton THS!
Ice time tonight. I gues I'll write a short review, I ain't no writer.

Chris

edit: A clearer front shot.

Slick set, I've always liked Summits. The graphic is clean and makes the pad look very slim, plus I'm a fan of the knee rolls.

So, did you sell off your CMX'? :P
