VAUGHN VENTUS SLR4 PRO GOALIE PANTS senior

Product detailed description

• Vaughn Ventus SLR4 Pro goalie pants are designed for goaltenders who want maximum net coverage and a more robust gear appearance.
• Wide molded 11" thigh guards create a large blocking surface and help the goalie cover more space in the net.
• The flatter construction of the thigh guards also makes the goalie appear more robust and optically take up more room.
• A wider and looser cut provides greater gear volume and comfort during movement in the crease.
• Molded hip and kidney guards made of HD foam provide reliable protection during shots and contact with other players.
• Segmented HD foam waist construction protects sensitive areas while allowing natural movement.
• The extra-high tailbone protector is extended into the lower back, increasing spine protection during falls on the ice.
• Double-layered padding on the inner thighs increases protection in exposed areas during butterfly saves.
• A wide 5" stretch panel in the crotch and elastic panels on the inner thighs allow for maximum freedom of movement.
• The Aero-Spacer mesh lining ensures good ventilation, helps wick away moisture, and contributes to faster drying of the pants.
• The pant construction is designed to help the goalie create the largest possible blocking profile, making the gear optically and physically occupy more space to better cover shooting angles.
• The waist construction is optimized for use with the Vaughn Ventus SLR4 Pro chest protector tucked into the pants, creating a compact unit that fits better and allows the goalie to occupy even more space.
• Unlike the Velocity line, the Ventus SLR4 focuses on maximum space coverage due to its wider, squared profile and massive 11" thigh guards. It is the ideal choice for the "butterfly" style, where the pants combined with the chest protector create an impenetrable wall and perfectly seal the five-hole.

Vaughn Ventus SLR4 Pro pants are suitable for senior goalies (approx. 14+ years) who want robust gear with a maximum blocking surface and greater net coverage.

When choosing the correct size of goalie pants, it is crucial to account for the internal volume of the gear, where the internal circumference of the pants must be 20–25 cm larger than your actual waist circumference. This margin is necessary for the comfortable placement of a bulky goalie jock and especially for the lower hem of the chest protector if you wear it tucked inside. Furthermore, a looser fit allows the pants to "float" freely on suspenders during the butterfly transition, without restricting hip rotation or thigh movement. Correct length is identified when the pant legs slightly overlap with the top edge of the leg pads in both your stance and during saves, without any rubbing. The pant leg should not end lower than the center of your knee.
