It isn't confirmed that it is PRO, and I tried to get it confirmed and he won't... but if you use logic it is obviously a PRO stick.

Maybe he is sick of having to wear new custom graphic skates every 5 weeks haha. Break one pair in "HERE IS A NEW PAIR FOR YOU THANKS."

I replied to your PM on reddit, but never saw the Catalyst comment. I found the Cats to play closer to Vapor than Supremes do so I wouldn't recommend someone going straight to that. Any Supreme pro stock model will be your best bet, just find the cuff that you like that is closest to your NXG.

Were they baked before you tried them on?

So what exactly is wrong with the XF Pro? Tacks shin pads have been basically the go to for shot blockers for a long time now for a reason.

Cupollos always had some super sketchy Ski and Snowboard rentals where everyone local asked how they stayed open and made any more. They'd have the lowest prices and often never requested the gear back afterwards. Lots of people around ehre had interesting Jayco pads and I still see the pants from time to time. Some of the pads had lightning on them and I was always jealous as a kid.

I would ask for photos, because those photos aren't the PPROC that have been posted before. Here is another pair that show off the V10 I mentioned: https://sidelineswap.com/gear/hockey/pants-girdles-shells/player-pants/8807330-ccm-new-senior-women-s-small-mhpproc-custom-hockey-pants-pro-stock?srsltid=AfmBOorEd-rJCLZeQQ57a8zUjDjmY6L4Afmjsb6jg0GCFDPhXD8fWzcJ

Are you talking about the Perron pants? If so they are based on the V10 model.

I would stand to ask when has Bauer made a choice that has ever been good for consumers? Actually them not releasing 3 stick lines every year was a good move 😂

Lots of pros make awful decisions though and their thoughts shouldn't necessarily matter. Like pro goalies that take a sweet stick to a fresh sharpening job to "finish it off" I'd say Crosby and McDavid are prime examples of "newer gear isn't necessarily better." We've seen Bauer go from full composite outsoles to a mix of plastic and composite outsoles. So sometimes their ideas of upgrades might not really have the positive effect for everyone. If I could go back to an FT1 or earlier stiffness skate I would in a heartbeat.

I've just tilted the skate manually and adjusted that way... but if this is easier it would be a nice to have.

Trying to get my hands on them...

HGTK are straight up the retail pant with a different cover. So that would be an option for people looking for more light weight and less overall protection. But they aren't really lighter than the UCLP... But certainly fit looser.

Yeah, I stuck with the Quad 1 for me. My hollow changes based on the time of year and steel I am using but I didn't deviate off of what I used previously.

It took me 2 skates to stop falling on my face going from a stock to a Quad 1 on backwards transitions. I'd say stick with it and keep seeing if you can adjust to it first.
