Penguinsfanatic 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 I was just wondering what kinda shoulder pads are out there that are extremely light and almost minimal protection at a decent price? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spreedizzle 1 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 Any of the minnimalist/classic styles are what you would be looking for.I personally use the Easton Classic's....and love them. Lace up sternum, minnimal foams with no plastic inserts on the chest/black, and thin profiled shoulder caps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kukakid 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 If you are getting shoulder protection for roller hockey I would recommend getting some of the padded shirts, such as the Mission Thorax or Tour Code 1. http://www.inlinewarehouse.com/HocPGShoulder.html. These should provide plenty of protection for inline. Also, keep in mind that many players choose not to wear shoulder pads at all in roller hockey, unless it is a checking league of course.

Penguinsfanatic 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 I saw the Itech SP50's and was thinking about those....I hurt my labrum my sophomore year in high school and sometimes just playing and banging up the boards really bangs my shoulders up, and i was looking to get some input on some minimalist protection.....and maybe if i ever got into a checking league they'd still be good enough there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Penguinsfanatic 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2008 haha I'm not too worried about it, it's just that i want just a minimal protection for my shoulders cause i tend to bang them up and I have had previous shoulder injuries and just don't want to have to worry about them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Penguinsfanatic 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2008 well what would be a good pair that would be great for both because i might be joining a mens ice league here at my school and i will definitely need a new pair now if i join Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
