- Yes, that's right: a SECOND CCM Extreme Flex 3 set of goalie pads! Why? Changing colors, of course! So watch as I go through the new EFlex3s and compare the changes I made from the first set of goalie pads. I ordered through Goalie Monkey, which was an AWESOME process and a group of great goalies. Got questions? Ask 'em!

Fantastic setup! Can't wait to see a review of how they feel on the ice.
Absolutely! Can't imagine it'll feel any different than my current set, but we'll see!
At 16:05 I was the one who asked about if it hurted! Glad to see it was fine! :)
Totally agree with what you said about goaliemonkey, great company. Lucky for me I live nearby one of their stores and I always go to their store. I get great help, get to see all the fresh gear, and try it on.
That's INCREDIBLE! I'm so jealous!
Long live the 1 piece T!!!! Man that glove is just absolutely gorgeous. Might have to order one. I wish a retailer carried the single T stock but oh well custom it is.
Thanks, Chris! I agree.. that single t looks sooo nice. While I did love the function of the double t... I just still love the look of my single, lol.
Thats a great setup. Cant wait to see them in action.
Thanks, Aaron! Hopefully won't be too long.
Not usually a fan of the black and white color scheme but those pads look amazing
Thanks, Will!
Thanks Tony for the unboxing. You may turn a Vaughn guy into a CCM guy yet. Enjoy the new gloves and pillows!!
Absolutely, man! Thank you so much for the kind words! And Vaughn is some great stuff, too... but remember Price did switch from Vaughn to CCM. ;) Good luck, man!
The blocker is absolutely beautiful
Thanks, Fuzy!
What is a price of this set in $ ,coz i want order similar?
What do you use to spray your gear down to help keep it clean and not smell?
Nice pads! I wish I had them.
These pads look very very very nice 👍
Thank you!
How were you able to get the velcro calf straps to be black? Did you have to do something special, or do they come black automatically when you get black internal? (I've only seen white before your video, and will be ordering some soon). Also, the side knee flap that you dont like - to confirm, you dont strap your knee and if you did, that flap would be locked in and not free to the side?
Hmmmm not sure. I wonder if they only have black and white and they match to the leg channel color. I just ordered a black leg channel and so it came with black elastic.
That's correct that I don't strap to the knee. I strap to below the knee/top of the calf. But even if I had a knee lock in there, it wouldn't be locked in; this is the pro outer knee pad, which doesn't attach in that way.
what's your opinion on blocker binding? some pros still use it. do you think it actually affects the puck, rolling off the blocker? I think the blocker binding looks pretty cool, on the CCM/Reebok blockers, at least.
Really, my only opinion is that it's ugly as hell. It always gets dirty faster than other parts of the equipment, so those goalies end up with some weirdo black outline on their blockers. Lol I've never heard a good reason why these goalies use binding. I don't think it makes any performance difference whatsoever. But, hey, whatever floats your boat!
Dang I missed it!!!!!! I was busy at the time!!! Great stream though!!!!
I was wondering where you were.. usually you're at every livestream, LOL. Thanks for the kind words!
GoalieCreaseNet
Haha I’ll try to be at some more streams lol.
Maybe this has been asked before but I find the original CCM premier to be better than the second generation so I went back to it any thoughts on that? I’m talking body length and elbows fit wise
For the chesty? I definitely like my 2017 version better than my 2016. The 2016 had arm and deltoid protection issues that I and others experienced. So far I haven't had any protection issues in the 2017, though to your point I do wish there were some more tightening points on the elbow, as it can be a bit loose.
Hey great video! Just curious, I got my eflex 3s yesterday and I've been using bauer knee guards all my life but it wasn't a good combination with these pads. Just wondering what kind you use for the eflex 3s? Thanks
I use the Koho 589 Swiss Pro knee guards and LOVE them!! Definitely get a pair!
You should do a video on all of the sets you have
That would be a short video right now! I only have the two EFlex3 sets right now, haha!
What palm is in the glove lso wgat do u do with old equipment
I usually wait a while and then sell it or donate it to a goalie who needs it.
I have the same setup
I missed the stream I was at a team practice
Pulled my groin on a cross crease save :(
Double whammy! At least you can rewatch the stream.. rest up and don't push the groin, Rene!
I bought a set of Eflex III’s off eBay, blocker is ok, but the catcher has the typical broken one piece cuff. I am sending that out for repair this weekend. Love the eflex III line, will you review the CCM Premier II’s or are you staying with the Eflex line?
That's so interesting. I've definitely seen others with that broken one piece cuff, but in all my Reebok/Koho/CCM sets, I've never had that happen to me, and I'm not sure why. Honestly it could be because I switch sets very often, so I don't use it enough to eventually wear the plastic down to that level of durability. As for the P2s, I probably won't review those. I'll stick with the EFlex line for now.
GoalieCreaseNet I hope to get out and use the EFlex 2s that I picked up used. Also gonna get out and use my Bauer Vapor 1 skates I picked up. I need to have them baked, perhaps your connection at Goaliemonkey knows how long they have to be baked for and what temp?
What do you prefer offset or standard T
+Splitz66 99 Standard for sure. Offset looks weird to me.
Cool I got offset because the guy told me it will close better
+Splitz66 99 Yeah, he’s not wrong. I’ve just always thought it looked weird. Lol Well that’s not true.. looked good on the old Reactor 6 Glove but it kind of fit with that design. Doesn’t quite fit aesthetically with the CCM style. Still, whatever works best for you!
Ya
"Let me take a wander around the glove....not a stitch our of place". wait wrong video. hahahaha
Funny enough there are some stitches out of place on the back of the legs, but I'm okay with it. For now. Lol
How is the overall durability with these? I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of 3.9's.
GREAT! Or at least it has been for me. I know someone whose blocker has gotten some tears in some weird areas, but I'm not sure why or how.
Is that the +1 pocket? It looks really big to be the 600 glove.
Nope! Standard pocket!
Have u grown on the 1s yet or do you still not like them
Can't stand them. I'll be selling them.
GoalieCreaseNet what’s wrong with them?
More than anything I just really hate the P31 curve. It's a ridiculous curve and I can't work with it.
When do the P2s come out?
I believe in either April or May 2018.
What happened to your red E-Flex 3's that you did an unboxing on a month ago?
+Caleb Gray They’re still there! They’re behind me during the video.
GoalieCreaseNet oh lol.
Where are you selling those 1s sticks?
I haven't put them up anywhere yet but will. Got a couple buddies interested, and if it means not having to go through the hassle of shipping, that's typically the route I go with sticks, ha!
How many weeks did it take to ship?
Great vid btw
I believe that was about 8 weeks. If I remember correctly I ordered them at the end of August.
How much cost your set?
Hey curious on what you do with your old gear?
I usually keep it around a year or so until the new models come out and then sell the old stuff to make up for camera, videography, software, hardware, etc costs.
GoalieCreaseNet thank you for replying. where do you sell your gear? What would you sell the 1s stick you have for. I saw a comment on one of you videos that you dont like the curve.
i use brians gnetik 3 pads
Nice!
What leg channel did you go with?
This is the tight leg channel; not super tight as some others have.
Can I please have the black True in the back there. Wait OMG he replied to me. Can you use your True in the next game you play.
Lol no. I like that stick!
Are all custom order Eflex 3 China made?
So I've heard varying things. I've heard the pros still get Canadian made gear. But a few years ago even the pros were getting Chinese made gear. So honestly I don't know the answer of whether all custom gear is Chinese made, but I do believe all non-pro custom orders are Chinese made.
What are your exact specs for your CCM's?
35+1", tight leg channel, two calf straps, one strap under the knee, no knee lock, deep boot. 600 break glove, single T. I think that's it!
GoalieCreaseNet Thanks man! May have to purchase a set of these!
If you ever do another unboxing you should try out Bauer :) Haha i get it you support ccm as i support bauer. Big believer in bauer, not so much ccm. :)
You read my mind.. just picked up some 1S pads. :)
GoalieCreaseNet You will not regret the investment! I hope lol
ill buy a stick
Why did u not use padskins that would have saved u alot of money
Still too much red to use padskinz; for example, the outer gusset is all red on that set. Plus I like new stuff. :)
lol, well i know im skinny, on my efex3 pad straps i do 9 and 8 while you do 4 and 3
Whoa! I can't even imagine going that tight! LOL
GoalieCreaseNet I also don't wear goalie socks so that contributes, but what really proves how skinny I am is that the strap I put to 8 still has quite a bit of slack against my leg
To much talking but over all 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✌️👍✌️👍✌️
just use pad rap
I got the outer gusset red.. hard to do Padwrap on that. I'm a purist, lol.
Nice pads! I wish I had them.
