are you set on the extended wrist part...you can up the % by searching for 5044s/7ks too

I mean 8k/5066/9177 are my 1st choice..but id try 7k..etc. if i came across them. Its so hard to find any of them in a medium(5) tho..

Hi Arto-Style,

I have a pair of new 9177s size 5 with the wrist extension. PM me if you want to buy them from me.

SCORE! After getting my 9177 size 5 elbows and trying them I found they were a bit too much for me. Both in terms of size and protection; they moved around a bit and also the extended cuff actually sat down into the glove. So... I just scored the best deal I could... I found a near-new set of 9025 elbows in size 4. Shipped to me for less than $15! I think for my drop-in and occasional tournament usage they'll be exactly what I've been searching for. Time will tell. ;)

Yeah, I'd imagine that the extended cuff going down into the glove is very much a personal preference/feel opinion. I love the fact that my 5066s cover everything that the cuff of my glove doesn't. I could see how it would really annoy some people, but for the amount of hacks and slashes I get in that area it's just what the doctor ordered.

Hey Too Old, you got a pic of that model?

[Too Old 1]

Here's a crappy one I found online. I'll take one when they arrive and post it though.

ahh now i know why you sold it :P

[adam14 182]

God the model numbers are so confusing.

Do a search; there's an excellent thread on here where a member broke down the Jofa nomenclature.

for the 9025 they run a tad bit smaller than other rbk/jofa i've used. i have 5k in size 4 and the 9025 in size 4 and the 9025 are a tad bit too narrow FYI.

[Too Old 1]

I was absolutely swimming in the size 5 9177's. I'd rather have a snug fit where they won't move around on my arm. Hopefully they'll fit and if not I'll sell them and look again.

Too Old - does it feel weird without the bicep part?

After I've used them a few times I'll report back. Only playing drop-in on Sunday nights now. Am also hoping to get on a team/into a local tourney coming up in September.
