    hey Matt, one question. What would you choose between Xenith Velocity, Razor RZ7 and Schutt Air Flex II?
    WR position
    Many thanks.

    Do you recommend a specific pair of shoulder pads, I play Fs and wr?

    i play football in the Netherlands as a wide receiver, I'm looking for new shoulder pads. Wich one do you recommend? my budget is around 200.

  • @wolve93
    @wolve93 6 лет назад +3

    Would you recommend these pads for tight ends? Blocking and receiving.

  • @nathanplayz1292
    @nathanplayz1292 8 лет назад +2

    Would you recommend this for a full back or the other one for a full back. I get the ball a lot

  • @andrewbrooks4669
    @andrewbrooks4669 8 лет назад +30

    would you recommend these or the riddell spk power rb/db? I like my pads low on my shoulders with maximum range of motion

  • @baseballplaya335
    @baseballplaya335 9 лет назад +31

    One thing maybe you should add to your videos is like do they get your approval and are you going to wear the products during your games sorta like what kick genius does with there KG stamp of approval

    I like the way the Xenith shoulder pads look but how good are they on protecting.

  • @JXRED98

  • @nicholasdelcorso9934
    @nicholasdelcorso9934 8 лет назад

    For a safety, coming off of shoulder surgery, which offers the most shoulder protection, air max flex 2.0 or xflexion velocity?

  • @willholder9161
    @willholder9161 9 лет назад

    Thanks for that last reply on your other vid. I have a request for you going forward. Being that its just about impposible for most people to find a store near them where they can actually try on shoulder pads, making an online purchase inevitable for most people... Can you begin to include more about fit and sizing characteristics of the different shoulder pads. I've already experienced returning a pair of Riddell SPX shoulder pads that weren't a good fit at all even tho my son measured out perfectly for them. The Xenith shoulder pad was said to run a little bigger, no? How do they compare, in your opinion? I'm thinking of giving the Xenith Velocity a try, but the shipping and waiting and possibly having to return them just to wait again is pretty annoying.

    @jheath102 9 лет назад

    On a scale of 1 to 10 how protective would you say they are?

  • @t.dewaal5295
    @t.dewaal5295 9 лет назад

    Dear I know Football,
    I would like to know if you would see these pads as a good pad for QB's or would you recommend another one? (incl rib guard) please let me know!!

  • @acm1bdrr
    @acm1bdrr 9 лет назад

    Which are the best helmet and shoulders for a cornerback? And un your opinión which helmet give a better protection, riddell speed flex or xenith epic?, sorry for my english :)

  • @tubular2times
    @tubular2times 6 лет назад

    Good review. How would rate these shoulder pads vs. Gear Tec Pro The Razor shoulder pads ?
    These are 1/2 the price - but a comparison and opinion would be helpful.
    Thanks !

    @supermike0822 6 лет назад

    Hey IKF... comin' at ya in 2018. This review is a few years old, but I still appreciate it. Seems Xenith ONLY offers the Velocity pads for sale these days for varsity. I went ahead and ordered a set for my son (LB/RB, 5'8-5'9, 135lbs, 18" shoulders, 35" chest). Wasn't sure what size, so got the medium and large and will see which work best. It's hard to find JV/Varsity pads in stores!! As always, appreciate your reviews.

    I play DE/DT for my schools football team. We still have the same old schutt youth football pads, they suck. We also have a “sponsorship” from adidas that gives us some really nice football jerseys. But I can’t seem to find a pair of pads that I can buy personally to make my jersey/pad combo, to look like that of Cameron Wake or Terrell Suggs. Any help?

    Question! I'm about 6'2" and play WR. I have a long upper body and always have a hard time finding shoulder pads that are comfortable. They always seem to ride up in to my neck from time to time.. Any specific shoulder pad that would maybe go a little lower near your abdomen area ? Thanks

    • @IKnowFootball
      @IKnowFootball  8 лет назад

      +Liam Barclay No, WR pads are very short on purpose. If they ride up you need a better fitting pad that is your size. Check out my pad reviews and also read my shoulder pad article on my blog.

      I would go with the smaller size if you are in between sizes. That’s what I did and my size is a medium

  • @DonOneDetroit
    @DonOneDetroit 9 лет назад

    What do you think of the following setup for a WR:
    1. Riddell Vengeance DCT with EPOG titanium
    2. Riddell Custom Pro Lightspeed (with a standalone CarbonTeK extended vest, which is sold separately and covers stomach and lower back).
    3. CJ Elite Cleats?
    However, off-the-record: Do I choose the Custom Pro, CarbonTek (full unit), or the Xenith pads? Can't decide, I am leaning toward the Riddell pads only because you can integrate the Kerr Collar with them.
    NOTE: for a 15-year old rising sophomore (in the fall), DeMatha Catholic School (Maryland). He is real tall and skinny but fast (thus he needs protection without limiting speed -- his main feature). His weight is working against him due to stereotypes.
    Again it is extremely difficult since none of the pads are available to try on before buying.
