My thoughts on the Vaughn Velocity 10 Pro Carbon set after using it. Glove 3:07 Blocker 10:07 Leg Pads 15:27 *NOTE* Glove is apparently not 60° but actually 45° even though Vaughn’s website says 60°
They definitely took longer to get used to than the V9’s. The pads are designed a little more towards performance and less towards comfort than past Velocity models. Switching the stock glove out for the XP was a big help as well. Overall I’m happy with the set.
I demoed a set of V10's I thought that put the wrong size straps on the pad I could only use the knee and outer one and they were pretty tight, the inner ones were way too short. I guess that its standard.
Vaughn isn’t the goalie giant they use to be. Gotta make some major changes in there lines and designs. But there is people that like the gear. So u know what your getting
That’s what I’m saying with the V10 gear. I feel like they’ve bridged that gap that was there between them and other companies. Not saying they do any one thing the best (other than comfort), but when taken all together I think the gear is very competitive with what’s out there now and it’s not just a niche line like it sort of became.
I’ve always loved the French Canadian stuff, the goalies and the companies linked to them. That was synonymous with butterfly goaltending. So I think a lot of guys get into the position and want the gear their heroes have, and without a huge name goalie in the chell wearing Vaughn, they have to rely on people using their gear to fall in love, if that makes sense
Different break angle than the SLR3. I think what makes it look a little like the SLR glove is that the shape of it doesn’t allow it to open up fully so it has a bit of an oval look to it, similar to the SLR glove.
