The Vaughn Ventus LT60 Goalie Leg Pad has been scaled down for junior goaltenders, providing similar protection features as the Vaughn Ventus LT80 leg pads. The Ventus LT60 butterfly leg pad features a full flat front surface and a one piece outer roll design for maximum net coverage.
The Ventus LT60 pads are built around an internal foam core, constructed with multiple foam thicknesses and densities in a precise arrangement. This pre-shaped firm design provides a solid frontal blocking surface and firm perimeter edges for improved net coverage and allows the pads to hold their shape longer without sagging. Various densities of foam throughout the core of the pad allow the protection to twist and flex in critical locations improving performance and limits stress on the knee and hip joints. Tall plus 2" thigh rise sizing is standard on the LT60 pads for improved five hole coverage. The wide inner landing pad increases surface area along the ice improving balance, net coverage and protection. Upper thigh protection comes from the laced in thigh guards that can be easily adjusted or removed if desired. The knee cradle is sewn in and has an angled strap system that straps below the knee for less friction and added comfort when dropping down into the butterfly position. The wide landing pad on the leg cradle is filled with soft low density foam for superior comfort and cushions the body when dropping down to the ice. The leg cradle also allows the pad to pivot like a hinge, allowing the pad to quickly rotate around the leg for more effective blocking positioning. Two large calf wrap flaps run the length of the leg channel providing wrap around coverage and protection. The strapping system consists of two adjustable nylon straps around the knee stack, two leather calf straps, one leather boot strap and tie on toe ties.
The Ventus LT60 goalie pads offer excellent protection and are perfect choice for the junior butterfly goaltender looking for a super lightweight high performing pad.
