- Bauer’s SV-Pro leg pads are built to dominate the crease with a thin, soft flex core and responsive, ultra-light build, at a more accessible price point.
- Core & Flex
- Thin, Soft Flex (Vapor) Core: Familiar to fans of the Vapor lineup, Bauer’s SV-Pro leg pads are built around their Flex Profile 1 core. Bauer’s Profile 1 flexes around the goalie with soft-mid flex below the knee, progressively softening above the knee. On the ice, Bauer’s Vapor lineup makes an excellent option for goalies who want a thin pad with strong rebounds, but prefer a pliable flex compared to Bauer’s Supreme pads.
- CURV® Composite Reinforced Thigh: Complementing their ultra-light, flexible feel, the SV-Pro pads are reinforced at the thigh rise with a highly-rigid CURV® Composite. CURV® composites offer unmatched resistance to cracking, deforming, or splintering at low temperatures, helping these pads to put down and hold a tight seal with a strong pop for longer.
- Reactive-Flex, 100° Boot w/ Thick Profile: Bauer’s Reactive-Flex 100° boot anchors the SV-Pro pads to the skates with a more ergonomic fit compared to Bauer’s 120° Supreme boot. On the ice, their softer flex boot allows for easier, more precise ankle movements, while their thicker profile promotes tighter rebound play at the posts.
- Knee Landing & Calf Support
- STABILIFLEX Knee Block: Compared to the Supreme lineup’s STABILISLIDE knee block, the Vapor lineup’s STABILIFLEX knee block promotes responsive, direct knee movements, while allowing for more flex between the knee and the pad’s core.
- BalancePlate Calf Support System: Revamped over previous Vapor pads, Bauer’s BalancePlate single bracket calf support system balances a stable, supportive butterfly with the Vapor lineup’s signature flexibility.
- Fit & Strapping
- Supreme Tune Fit+ Strapping System: A plush, padded y-strap Offers easy adjustments at the top and bottom of the calves for a precision fit, with the option to be entirely removed.
- Pro-inspired Elastic Toe-Tie System: Carried down from Bauer’s Supreme Shadow pads, Pro-inspired elastic ties secure the pads while allowing the ankles a greater range of motion. To help goalies dial-in their perfect fit, Bauer’s Pro-inspired toe ties anchor into a 4-hole toe bridge, easily-adjustable from a single grommet.
