Any previous CCM CL shoulder pad owners upgrade to the FT4 Pro?

When the FT4 Pro shoulder pads were announced there was a lot of fan fare claiming CCM was going back to the crazy lite days. There were a lot of first looks, but I haven’t come across any actual reviews. Wondering if anyone has upgraded and can offer any feedback? I’m especially curious about ventilation as the older pads had a ton of holes around the pads that don’t appear to be present on the new ones.

@Hills aka hockeyreviewsca had a super positive review on the Instagram. Not sure if it’s on his webpage as well.

Don’t see that anywhere. Obviously saw his first look, but not a review. I also thought he used Tacks shoulders, not CL

Im curious as well. My cls are still in good shape. Shortened the straps up. Just wish they were longer is my only gripe. I switched from Reebok 11k which were MASSIVE and way too much for my liking and I’ve adored these. The FT4 pro looks a bit longer with the removable stoMach protection

I upgraded and haven't looked back. Best shoulders on the market.
