Designed for the mid-high level goal tender, the Vaughn 7480 Velocity Blocker starts with the proven Velocity design and improves key features to provide more comfort, more control, and more performance. Limited Edition and new for 2011, the Vaughn 7480 is styled directly from the 7900 series blocker and it is an extremely high quality imported glove. The materials and construction processes used to create the 7480 series are nearly identical to those used in the 7900 glove, making it a true Vaughn Custom Spec blocker. * Same design as the 7900 blocker but with bindings around the perimeter for the blocking board * Palm position is moved 1 higher up the board to put more blocking surface below the fingertips for additional net coverage. * Gradual top flared board with beveled perimeter edges on the back side of the board reduce weight and provide excellent balance * Forward tilted board provides enhanced placement in relation to the hand for improved net coverage * Bottom board bevel allows the board to be placed tightly against the surface during paddle down moves * Large side shield with high density foam padding for solid protection and wide blocking surface * Pro style finger protection provides multi-layered protection of the index finger, sides of the of the fingers, and finger tips * Articulating cuff design provides for increased wrist movement and flexibility * Dual layered palm with side mesh vent gussets allows for excellent stick control and improved ventilation to reduce heat buildup
