custom: Mission Syndicate pads/trap/block

I figured I'd do a review on these after all... I wasn't going to because these aren't like the ones in stores at all..... Well, start w/ the pads:

-size: 36 (no plus)
-material: condura (whole pad)

-the pads are extremely lite weight (between 4-5 lbs ea)... they are filled w/ pro foam the same as in nhl pads... basically the durablity is perfect thus, the material holds tough to the wear ice can put on leather...no tears or fraying at all (suprised)... I was personally excepting them to fray... very similar to RBK 2s personally speaking...

Mods: -they had a lot of velcro I wear my gear very loose so all removed, leg channel was stripped clean the flaps are now held open at all time, by me lacing the calf guard and them together, and the outer leg guard also the same way (photos show)
-I removed all the straps, but the one skate strap and the two knee straps (so I only have three strap on the pads...)
-and also removed the thigh boards... which are your typical mission boards just custom colored


I also removed the adjustable knee stabilizer (just velcro in)

Trapper
specs/mods:

very nice indeed... its very similar to vaughn visions.... well, its very well constructed, very lite weight, and impact areas are leather, and the rest in condura for weight... it had a three strap harness system I removed the furthest by my wrist... to fit my chest guard in... also removed the vecro in pillow...

Blocker:

no change to the blocker its very lite weight and is almost right on w/ the design on the x-wing blockers... condura wrist guards the rest leather

set:

the set is a prototype set custom made for justin hoffman (justin1933) I got the set from him... I have two trappers, one blocker, and the pads... one of the gloves I am selling (no need for it)they have a costum plaid graphic on them also which I love
overall set: 10/10 very nice what you can get in store is overall I'd say a 9/10
I'd recommend this set for ice for sure the boss series

-danny questions just ask

Play for one of the good Mission teams and they will hook you up, or if you work for them.

Now that I think of it, the Narch pro goalies (Mello and Buff) wore white/white/black syndicate gear (Buff did not where the glove). I think only people within the Itech/Mission goalie company got to use the plaid. I think it would be great if they offered the plaid as I can see many youth goalies wanting it just based on the looks. The whole syndicate line is great!

yeah buff and the back up in the winter nationlas all used white gear... buff used the blocker and pads w/ a velo trap... I think he is now back sporting his itech blocker from team usa days... but still got the pads... the plaid I have were made for the syndicate team, but justin didn't play... their jersey were also plaid... Remeber his rink rat pads?? who ever bought that set?? I loved that set but I would never be on a team to match those though.. he always seemed to have a set made to match perfectly to the jersey they wore

I do not recall the Rink Rat set your talking about. Just all I know now is that Rink Rat went blue-ish purple with their jerseys

Do you know who the back up was for Mission at Winters? I have not played anything real competitive since last Narch Nationals (and have no plans on doing so), so Im just curious to see who is where now...
