Vaughn 8600 Epic Leg Pads

Vaughn 8600 Epic Leg Pads

All new design for 2008 the Epic 8600 leg pad features a narrow side profile design constructed to be lighter weight and less bulk for quicker leg movements. The pad's front surface features softer foam to reduce rebounds and give greater puck control. The Epic 8600 size and dimensions comply with all new USA HOCKEY league rule specifications. Full length leg and knee cradles feature adjustable knee and leg lifters that all precise adjustment of leg height off the ice when going down on the inside pad edges. This keeps the leg and knee supported above the ice and provides superior ergonomic leg position to allow for maximum leg extension while reducing stress on the knees and hip and allows for quicker leg rotation and extension along the ice.

The design on the inside edge of the pad gives a flat inner edge and side knee platform for improved body balance. The narrower side panel reduces pad drag to allow quicker pad slide along the inner edge and properly positions the pads on the ice to give maximum leg support and to keep the pad face square to the ice for greater net coverage.

Knee Hugger curved shape in the top section of the pad keeps the pad from drifting away from the knee and closes the top thigh portion of the pads when down on the ice reducing five-hole gaps. Large squares shaped outside rolls prevent puck skip over and provide a defined outer pad edge that increases net coverage and stabilizes the pad height to limit height compression. Large curved thigh boards provide additional knee and thigh protection and function to help increase five-hole coverage.
