Your current equipment

[Bubbles 0]

Great thread, very interesting to see the variety of brands used by everyone. Although I was hoping that more of you would have listed the type of mouthguard you use. I hate to sound like a leach but I am doing research for a project on mouthguards and any info people have about the type they use and like would be of great help.

As for my gear, I have been on a Mission kick lately, I'm not sure why, but whatever their maketing people are doing it seems to be working on me!

Helmet = Bauer 4000

Visor = Leader Flip-up

Shoulder = Old D&R

Gloves = Mission M-3

Pants = Mission M-1

Shin = Old D&R

Elbow = Mission M-1

Skates = Mission S200

Stick = Mission M-2 Shaft, OLD Titan (2000 Lindros maybe?) It's so old I don't remeber, trusted back up that has lasted forever!

Mouthguard = Custom Smartguard

since I'm new I'll chip in

Helmet= CCM ??? I don't know but I think it's a step below prostock, I use a bandana to keep the sweat out of my eyes, tried the ua skully and it didn't work as good.

Cage= CCM cage nice dent from a slapper when I filled in for our Goalie

Shoulder= ITech 6000? They do the job I hardly notice them anymore

GLoves= Mission Matrix not pro but not the cheapies either. I like them alot but I wish the insides had a little more padding but the outsides are great and they feel great too.

Pants=Itech 6000 I bought all my pads as a set from hockeymonkey or some such site. I like them they feel good but they need zippers.

Shin=Itech again nice fitting could use better straps are pretty broken down after 2years of rec league play, yeah I'm that bad ;)

Elbow= Itech again, nice pad they slip a bit but over all a nice pad

Skate=Nike Quest 1 love em great feel and fit.

stick= SW 5030 leclair curve used it for the first time friday in pickup and this is a nice stick good weight and a nice feel. Branches 4400 Rhino as my back up to the SW's

Mouthguard=Shockdoctor V3 I think.

Edit: forgot jock and underwear

Jock= Itech hockey jock

Underwear= UA turf gear, all season, coldgear, performance grey LS, Trifilar the Polo. Bottoms boxers or UA coldgear leggings if its really cold out.

Sorry that I don't remember most of what I wear. Oh and I'll be adding some Mission Helium MSH gloves to that list too.

This is my first post on the board so this is as good as any place to jump in I guess.

Helmet: Nike 0004 (What can I say about the 4000/0004 other than they are one of the best helmets out on the market)

Visor: None (probably not the smartest to play with out one)

Shoulder: Nike V10( Great shoulder pads, very light and mobile)

Elbow: Nike V10 (Same as above, could use some more bicep protection though)

Gloves: Bauer Vapor XV (Very nice glove, can't wait until the XXX come out)

Pants: Pro Stock Ignite 1 (Current lower shell is U. of Denver. Great protection)

Shin: Nike ProStk (Nice shin but the straps had to go)

Skates: Nike V12 (Best Nike skate so far, can't wait to see what's next.)

Sticks: Bauer Vapor XV with Synthesis blades (Best 2-piece I own, even better than Synthesis shafts.)

Underwear: Itech(I can't remeber what the model it is, but it's a compression short, jock, and shirt combo.)

I just started using the the nike protective and had been using Jofa and Koho for my protective and have been pretty impressed so far.

Since im a primarily inline player, I'll do an inline list.

Helmet: Bauer 5000 SE w/ Itech straigt small tinted visor (havent used it yet)

Elbow Pads: Sherwood 950 classics (awsome pads, fit right, and protect better, i like the older style elbow pads)

Shin Pads: Mission Matrix(I love these pads, they have a shin sleeve and two straps, exaqctly what i want in a pad.)

Inline pants: S7ven 950 pants. (The best they make, i like them better than my m-1s.)

Gloves: Custom Sande 720's (Best gloves i have ever had, i love them)

Skates: V12 boot, with red star chassis, factory Halo wheels. (A $900 skate that i paid $200 for. Not only do i love the price, the boot feels like a slipper.)

Sticks: Inno Tru-1, Inno 1100, Inno Commander w/ inno blade, Vector shaft, XN10, Response + shaft, Response shaft, T-Flex, Easton z-carbon woodie, Ballistikl shaft.

Out of those, I only use the Tru-1 and the Commander. The others are ok, and all the dhafts have various wood or carbon blades.

quick update:

Used the helmet/visor combo. I love it, the tinted visor helps me out alot. I like that its not as bright out there.

Got vapor xv gloves for a pretty big discount. They are sick! Very protective, and very easily broekn in. Im seriously considering ditching my Sandes for these babies.

Broke the Tru-1. Now im back to the 1100 kovy, and 1100 tapered. Liking those still.
