Brian's OPTIK X4 Junior Goalie Leg Pads
Intro & New Features
The OPTIK X4 line is the latest release from Brian’s OPTIK collection. The X4 leg pads have many features to make it great including a Primo sliding edge, streamlined outer roll, and a removable knee flap.
External Material
The front has a flat-faced, laceless design to ensure a streamlined, responsive fit, while the squared outer roll incorporates reinforced dual-density padding for added rigidity and protection. Brian’s has also included their Opti-Slide, a primo sliding edge with a bindingless sliding surface, higher-density foam, and a laced-in back knee block for a strong sliding performance.
Internal Construction
The pads’ thin profile construction not only enhances the goaltenders sightline but also significantly reduces weight, which is huge for keeping ahead of today’s game. The incorporation of Bri-Core, a triaxial carbon fibre composite reinforced thigh, imparts substantial rigidity to the thigh area, ensuring enhanced stability and protection. Moreover, the core has undergone meticulous redesign, resulting in the lightest construction to date.
Pad Break
The OPTIK X4 leg pads use a single break design for a natural, responsive feel and precise positioning. This break is generally catered more toward butterfly goalies, so they can have the strong response and reliable seal they need to stop the puck and control the front of the net.
Boot Angle & Toe Taper
The pads use an 80° toe taper to further enhance that seal potential along the ice, while still allowing for some flexibility and additional mobility.
Knee Cradle
The OPTIK X4 uses the Pro 2 Knee Pad System from the G-NETiK series, which is compatible with Pro 2 knee pads. Depending on your personal preferences, you can attach the knee pad or leave it independent. The knee cradle is padded and made of mesh for good protection and aeration.
Strapping
The pads feature multiple strapping systems to keep the gear nice and snug while allowing for optimal rotation and responsiveness. The OPTIK series continues to use the adjustable smart strap system over the calf, which offers reliable responsiveness and connection with the gear. Over the Smart Strap is an outer to inner strapping system that has been designed to stretch from the outer calf wrap toward the inner wrap. With the elastic slide plate connection, there is less pull, ensuring greater stability and control. There is also an additional optional upper calf wrap attached to the pads to offer a solid anchor point that doesn’t restrict movement.
Colors & Sizes
The Brian’s OPTIK X4 Junior Goalie Leg Pads come in White, White/Black, White/Red, White/Blue, White/Black/Red, and Black with sizes 27+ 1”, and 29+1” being available.
