Shinguard question

[Chadd 916]

I'm 6-1 and wear 15" pads. Almost everyone I know under 5-9 uses 13's.

I'm 6' 3" and I wear 16 Eastons...either mine are too short or everyone else's are WAAAAAY too long.

bumping a REAL old topic!!!

Are my shins too long?

They are 15in RBK 6K's

The first is with my legs at a 90* angle, the second with my need forward.

I guess what I'm asking is does that look like it could hinder my skating?

Do you feel it hindering your skating?

In my opinion, no. They sit about the same as I wear my shins.... The important thing, as stated above, is do you feel like it's hindering your skating? Just forward flex without shins they put the shins on and do it again, is your range limited? You could also try skating without your shins and see whether you feel that you can skate any better.
