Previous Feedback
Comments: Nice and light, padding feels solid, but slides down like crazy. The fit nice and tight, but after a few shifts, they're not really even protecting me anymore. Unfortunately, I'm disappointed and they are pretty much unusable for me. Worn them in two games, and won't wear them again.

Comments: These are awesome!!! Im usually a bauer guy but I needed new pads so i tryed out these elbow pads and they are amazing. Tons of protection, give you a great range of motion, no restrictions at all and the best part THEY DONT SLIDE, at all its great!. The only issue I have with these is the area where your elbow sits points out alot on the pads, like easily visible with even a jersey on, not a huge issue though. Get these pads, they are top of the line and there only 79 dollars! you wont be disappointed by these.
