Brian’s Optik X2 Senior Goalie Leg Pads
The new Brian’s Optik X2 senior goalie leg pads are designed for a high level goalie that wants an elite level pad without spending high level pro prices. Based on the very popular Brian’s Optik 2 graphic, the X2 provides a pro level look at the Senior, Intermediate and Junior levels. The Brian’s Optik X2 is the senior level product made for the goalie that plays 3 to 5 times a week.
The Brian’s Optik X2 has a flex similar to the Max Core on the Optik 2 pads. This core provides a break above and below the knee which is great for a goalie that needs more flex vertically and laterally in the pad. The X2 is a very good pad for a hybrid style goalie because of this flex design. A pre-molded s-shape allows the Optik X2 to seal the five hole for goalies that have narrow and medium width butterfly coverage.
On the inside of the pad, Brian’s uses the very popular primo material on the inner edges. The primo inner edge provides improved slidability and makes lateral movements while in the various butterfly techniques much easier with less effort. The inner binding on the X2 has also been recessed to reduce friction.
Another feature of the Optik X2 leg pads is the Smart Cord bungee toe tie system. Gone is the big, clunky elastic straps that Brian’s used in the past. This style (cord) tow tie allows for maximum flexibility and attach angle while the goalie is in their butterfly techniques. The cord can be adjusted to any skate size.
The X2 has a slightly wider then average leg channel. The leg channel can be custom fitted with adjustable elastic straps in the knee and calf areas. The foot scoop of the Brian’s X2 leg pads utilizes a softer boot which allows goalies a great range of motion while in recovery movements and general skating movements. This added range of motion has become extremely popular over the past few years. The Optik X2 comes with a Smart Boot strap under the heel. This nylon webbing design is very user friendly with a velcro closure design that allows the goalies to secure and take off in seconds.
We feel that the new Brian’s Optik X2 goalie pad is a big step in the right direction for Brian’s in this Senior/Pro level. The Optik X2 is much lighter then past Brian’s senior pads and seems to have a much better overall fit compared to past senior level pads from Brian’s.
