Bauer Total One/One90 Goal Pads

Bauer has done it again. Revolutionized the goalie pad yet again. Forget customizing your break before you purchase, you always get the freedom to choose. I won't get into the blocker or catcher in this segment since there is so much to the pads these days.

Normally when I refer to bars and hockey players, it's doesn't mean equipment but today is a first. With two bars, stiff and extra stiff, you control the break both above the knee and below it. I've heard that Lundqvist is a fan of using soft bars in practice and stiff bars during games to get a better feel for the pads. With the full coverage of the changing slots there is no worry about the open structure of this pad compromising its' quality. The knee cradle of this pad is also removable and adjustable with a softer and lighter material. 

As shown above are the slots for above and below the knee breaks and the easy adjustability of the entire feel of your pad.

The yellow bars are used for the stiff flex and blue would be the soft flex.

I recommend this line of pads to anyone looking for a softer built pad, without the breaks but with the full front face of a Reebok pad. The rebound control is very much like my One80 pads but with more of a hybrid comfort of a Reflex pad. For those of you that remember the Vapor line of pads that was quickly discontinued it is very much like the Nexus of Bauer's goalie line. A combination of everything and a happy meeting in the middle. 

You can find the retail line of these pads in the One90 but the Total One is on a level of its own. 

Happy Saving.
