Imagine everyone online discussing what gear someone is using. The name "Warrior" would come up pretty fast. They don't need to do that bc people talk already, why do u think NHL charge brands so much for advertising?!? Stupid kids use to buy gear with the NHL badge on it thinking it was great but social media killed that. Only stupid kids need validation of the gear they have. That's why they bauer vaughn and ccm underarmour sponsors certain schools and leagues and teams. U think TPS was great gear in 94-96 that all CHL goalies wear it, some even had it ghost by lefverbe ( garon blocker with tigers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the G3 glove and it has that triangular rod giving it a I_I closure as well. I also had the G2 and it had a I_I but the foam rod was not as triangulated/3-dimensional as the G3->G5. Ever since I’ve used the Warrior I_I palm closure, I will never go back to a pancake V closure again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 @Kirk3190 That mask looks interesting. Can you at least answer these few questions before the official media release: - One pro model or Pro/SR/JR models? - ABS or Fiberglass or Composite mix? - Made local or overseas? - Chin cup or sling?

When I close the gloves, I can feel it in the palm break on the GT2 and it's not noticeable on my G3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The G2 has a flat block while the G3 turned into a triangular wedge. I don’t have any experience with the GT2 or G4 so I don’t know if there was further enlargement of that piece but my G3 looks just like that G5 picture.

Not sure on the other questions, but it looks like there's 3 models for sr, 2 for jr, and a youth mask: http://www.hecc.net/certprods.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircanuck Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Noticing a more open jawline on this mask. I'm a huge fan of that for safety. I am very curious to see one up close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it, I tried it on and it's unmistakable to think of one if not both of those masks as you see it and feel it. It's fantastic and I'm very excited for it. While I got a G5 set coming, the mask is what I really look forward to. It's about time we had another nice mask thrown back into the mix, I see this mask catapulting Warrior to the next level and turning the corner to be as recognized as the other big boys.

ThatCarGuy Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I’m starting to get the impression that the G5 chest protector was used in the “How it Feels to be Everywhere” video. The logo is on the opposite floater from normal warrior chest protectors and the arms look a little slimmer not much though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, I tried on a WALL W10 (Large) in a shop again yesterday, and that is the best feeling/fitting mask I ever put on my head. I think after about 20 years with ReidiC I might jump ship and go to WALL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puckstopper Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 True custom would be cool AF! Smart money would be on a handful of options just like their main competition but if any of the big players were going to think outside the box and offer up custom padding and a paint/wrap service for an all inclusive price my money would be on Warrior being the ones to have the cajones to step up and try it.

Both companies are willing to take risks to satisfy their customers. I guess what I SHOULD have said was that I would bet on Warrior being the company to do this at a price point I can stomach and without nickle and diming us to death. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I just can't get used to the robot arms. They seemed so clonky on the original Ritual when I first saw one in person. On another note, didn't know Pogge was playing across the pond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
