Reebok Shin Pad Problem

[th6252 25]

new pro series. the main differences between them and the pro lightspeed(what you were probably referring to, not the defender) is the shell on the shin is a different, and the bottom of the shin is wider/less tapered.

Okay, I deserve two big facepalms.

First, I tried on some shin pads, and the best fitting ones seemed to be the 15's. They calf wrap foam fully protected the leg leaving no gaps while the plastic piece didn't hit the skate much. 13's were next best because the plastic almost fully protected the leg, although it was small. 13.5 and 14 were both kind of leaving gaps.

But I got home and was messing around with my pads and the liners are adjustable up and down, so I can move the pads up or down as needed. I moved the plastic outer piece up 1/2" or so and now it doesn't hit the skate and my knee still rests in the cap. So.....RTFM I guess!
