D30?

[Ltrain 0]

Not sure if this has been discussed before. Saw an article featured in Yahoo about D30 technology. Seems interesting. Have any companies tried using this or tested this material on hockey protective gear? I wonder if it would have a decent application in hockey gear or if there are major drawbacks to this material.

I searched and didn't find anything mentioned. Ignore if this was already beaten to death. If so i didn't see it

Looks like it's already found in STX K18 lacrosse gear:
