- When you make the significant investment in new goal pads of course it is important to get the fit right. In this episode Cam walks through sizing Woody for a new set of pads explaining in detail the process they use at the Hockey Shop to be sure you get the right pad for your game. They also take time to show you how to properly measure yourself at home (SPOILER: there's a good chance you haven't seen it done the way Cam does - we hadn't!)
For more ideas or if you have any more questions, you can reach out to Cam at The Hockey Shop Goal Department at 1-800-567-7790

Never knew the wrap trick. Very useful
DON'T STOP THE CHIRPING BOYS - THE INFO IS GREAT BUT THE CHIRPING IS THE BEST ENTERTAINMENT!!
Probably the best video I've seen on this. Good job guys!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and appreciate the comment.
Awesome break down!
I love the energy in this vid guys good job !! Im trying to get my hockey gear in spain and ooof
Thanks so much! Spain? Love to hear we have people watching in such great places!
Great advice guys!! And entertaining too! Lol
Thank you...no point in doing something if you're not having un, right?
What’s your take on adding boot risers to get that extra 1/2 inch or inch?
this is awesome video with great information I wish I had come out six months earlier when I ordered my gear, Oh well at least I know better from this video for my next set, age and body allowing
Glad you enjoyed it - sorry it didn't come sooner :(
Well done boys! 👍🏼
Thanks!!
Great video! Which stock option pad would you reccommend to someone with a narrow butterfly due to stiff hips and playing more of a hybrid style? I'm usually a 34+2 but feel I could go even more + (although that's difficult to find stock). Also, I assume a defined and perhaps exaggerated S-Curve would help?
If you want more thigh rise, then yes +2 is it and Vaughn is your brand, as they are the only company with a stock +2. More of a curve to the thigh rise for sure would help close that 5-hole. Definitely give Cam a call though - he'd be happy to chat about your options!
I got my pads size I only wore knee pads and skates do you think that’s still fine
So do you add the floor to knee measurement with the knee to crotch measurement to determine the size of the pad? In this instance, that would be 20.5 + 9.5...so would the pad size be 30 inches?
Funny isn't it ? The measurement is all about where the knee is but nobody wearing a 32" pad has their knee 32" off the ground!
Honestly, we'd never feel comfortable saying any particular measurement of your leg can do anything but give you a rough idea - there are plenty of sizing charts out there from each company but at the end of the day before you make a significant investment like this we think it's important to try them on in person.
Hey guys, I just started using a leg Chanel system, I had straps before, but I'm not sure how tight I should have the initial chanel velcro adjustable strap on the inside of the pad.
Play with it - honestly people's preferences vary but tend to snug but not tight if that makes any sense.
I use a Bauer 33" but my knee is getting close to the edge of the knee padding would I go to a 34 or 34+1 or 2 or 35?
Best bet is to call Cam or one of the guys in the store. 34, 34+1 or 34+2 all have the knee in the same place...so they'll need to assess things for you.
When measuring to the ankle bone from knee, is it the bottom, middle, top?
Good Q! Cam says middle to middle...
How tall are you? My knee to floor is the same measurement like yours with that wrap around technique.
Woody claims to be 6 feet tall but you know what happens when you get old…
hey so im 6 ft and im wearing 35+2 and the issue im finding is tht when im skating the thigh rises keep catching on each other does tht mean they are too big?
Yea for 6ft 35+2 is huge, try a 35+1 or a 34+2
@@holtenphillips4307i measured and im actually 6ft 2 lol still big tho?
At 6'2 I dont think thats a problem...even 6'0.
You might want to try testing out wearing your pads looser or tighter at the top. There could still be overlap but it might be easier to work with.
Great video. So is there any way to stop your child from growing?? Cuz I’ve had to get 3 sets in 1 year 😭😭 thank goodness for sales preshipping problems.
But it's also so satisfying when they do grow....so hard isn't it!!
If im a 32+1.5 in warrior. Does that mean I should go to 33+1 True?
honestly best to check with Cam and ideally try them on....
I am 6ft3 what size would I be able to fit properly? I’m having problems trying to find my size 😢
Find your ankle to knee or floor to knee measurement and go from there
What do u think are the best toe ties
Halo hockey posi toe ties.
Where is this shop located???
Langley, BC goo.gl/maps/3w58ccHYh5DqxDEq5
It's the calf wrap on the inside of the chanel, typically the first strap you have to fasten before the outside calf wrap or knee strap
Got any warrior 36+1.5?
Call Cam - he'd love to help!
I am realizing that v9s are too big for me😭. 34 plus 2 on the v9s.
It's Miguel Angel Gimenez that warms up like that, not Olazabal 🙂
Cool
How tall is Kevin?
He claims 6' but we're pretty sure he's shrunk a lot in his old age.
@@InGoalMedia what would Kevin’s pad size be in the 12.2 or PX3
Those goalie masks look ridiculous.
What's with the mask? Covids left the building.
Cool...but our old videos don't magically edit themselves ;) Time for a refresh though!
@@InGoalMedia Yes, refresh!
