***NEW Limited Edition*** CCM AXIS 2.5

Brand New Limited Edition CCM AXIS 2.5 Goalie Leg Pads. Purchased pads from Goalie Plus. Never been worn. Special Edition Single Break: Some customers may be confused by our Special Edition Single Break description. The Special Edition is our way of giving customers better spec options that are not normally available. When we initially saw the CCM Axis 2.5 junior leg pads, the stock version has an inner break but not a break on the outer roll. In our opinion, we feel this stiffens the pad in an unbalanced way and takes away from the natural flex of the pad. With an inner break and not outer break, the inside half of the pad wants to flex but the outer half of the pad wants to stay stiff. This makes for an unbalanced vertical flex in our opinion. With an unbalanced vertical flex, the pad will not seal properly because the pad will now have a twisting effect on the lateral flex. By adding the break in the outer roll, the natural flex is restored and butterfly coverage creates a better pad to ice seal. In generic terms, unless you have a super wide butterfly and do not need any flex, you will need the pad to flex and seal the five hole in the butterfly position. By adding this break, we feel it greatly helps with this in many ways. Especially with younger goalies, we feel that more flex helps junior goalies move better and perform better. A stiff pad on a small body is a recipe for disaster for a young goalies as they will loose mobility since the pad will not flex with their smaller bodies.
