Vaughn Velocity 4 Series, Improves Upon Previous V3 Perfection
The Vaughn Velocity 4 series includes leg pads, blocker and catch glove. It is an enhanced version of the popular V3 series, offering increased protection and a lighter feel. The following is a review from TotalHockey.net on this new technology for top-notch goalies!
Overview: Vaughn’s new Velocity 4 “V4″ (leg pads, blocker and catch glove) is an upgrade from the very popular V3 Series. The new V4 series is similar to V3, but with many improvements.
Two key upgrades in the V4 leg pad construction include a narrowing pad body, which decreases the pad’s weight making it 15% lighter than the previous version. Brand new internal HD boards allow a stiffer blocking surface that keeps the pad in its original shape without losing height or stiffness during the break-in process. Additionally, the straps are reconstructed to allow for adjustments. Vaughn also moved the location of a few straps to increase mobility.
The Velocity 7600 Blocker features a higher level of finger protection as well as a contoured palm design with curved fingers for a more natural, comfortable feel and better grip on the stick. In addition, the new V4 blocker’s front board is tilted forward allowing for a better blocking angle on the puck.
The catch glove, like the pads and blocker, is much like the V3 with some improvements. The new V4 catch glove has a wider thumb loop “tunnel” for more control and protection, reducing the thumb angle. This glove also features a pro-spec beefed up palm and increased finger padding designed for added protection.
Skill Level: The Vaughn Velocity 4 is made for goalies who are playing at the highest levels: – junior, college or professional. This series is worn by many goaltenders in the NHL.
Competition: If you liked the V3 series then there is no competition! This set is an upgrade of this existing top-of-the-line series.
Conclusion: The Vaughn Velocity 4 7600 Series is what the pros wear. If you want to elevate your game or if you plan to move to the next skill level, the V4 series could be the perfect selection to enhance your game.
