bauer nexus havok (black version?)

[datsyuk 0]

I saw that thehockeyshop.com was selling nexus havok protectives (i.e. shoulders, elbows and shins) and they look exactly like the nexus line but are in black and are not sold anywhere else. I was wondering does anyone know anything about these protectives?

Seems that SFS is not selling the 600 and ordered an SMU to replace it. They do this all the time. This appears to be identical or approximate to the 600 except in black, according to the features list.

SFS does this with almost every company they carry. It is actually a really good idea because they are able to take features from the product above it (in this case the 700) as well as the 600 and combine them together to make whatever they decide to name it. I had a good conversation about this with the owner of my local SFS and he said the SMU products are almost like babies in the product line. So the Havok would be a baby of the 700 and the 600. They do this alot for skates as well, for every skate company SFS carries there is 3-4 SMU products that fall in between the regular line up. (Each family of Bauer skates, Reebok, and Easton, not sure about CCM)

Except in this case, it is basically the 600 as they have no features from the 1000, which is above it.

They have U+ Control and U+ Shock with CCM, those new Control shoulders seem to be well made.
