3 games down, they still look like I just took them out of the box. After the game tonight I took them off in the locker room and a teammate asked to see them. I handed them over and they were already completely dry! It really feels like youre not wearing shoulder pads, due to the lack of weight and the vent holes keeping the air moving around you. I seem to have been averaging about a point per game, but over the weekend since picking these up I have 3 goals and 6 assists in 3 games played. I feel the pads are having a real impact on my game due to the ventilation. I am not hot on the bench anymore waiting for my shift, no steam billowing out of the neck of my jersey fogging my visor, and I appear to be getting to pucks quicker than usual probably because my recovery time has sped up. I have been completely protected in net front battles, spine and sternum protection are first class. I am really impressed with this u+ technology. I think I'm going to try the elbows too!
