Is it possible to get a NEW pair of RBK (Jofa) 7k pro elbow pads size 5? I searched the forum and I know these might be older elbows but I was just wondering if they are still available? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

^if you get lucky and have a hefty amount of cash at the ready I think this request could be fulfilled
Thank you Caps. New to the forum. Any suggestions on where to look? I searched ebay and they have a used pair. I would much rather NEW, just my personal preference but I realize they are almost impossible to find.

Is there a reason why you're set on the 7K?

My guess is that he tried the 8k/5066 and that damm slash guard is bothering him? I know you can cut it but why when people can be interested in those.

I haven't had a chance to try the 7 or 8k but as Maverick said, the slash guard seems to be more of an issue. I just like the looks of the 7K elbows and everyone that has them seem to love them. I have a pair of Bauer Vapor pads now that I'm all set with. I like that the 7k's are lightweight and someone said that you barely notice you're wearing them.

Kind of a big jump for something you haven't tried. I know there are a number of members, including myself, who find Jofa very bulky and they slip down on their elbows. Just something to keep in mind before dropping big money on them.I haven't had a chance to try the 7 or 8k but as Maverick said, the slash guard seems to be more of an issue.

Have you tried on the retail Easton EQ line? They are a similar design/shape to the Jofa model you are looking for. Maybe see if though fit you, but just remember that the inner part of the elbows are completely different.

The new CCM CL's just kicked my 7k's out of the bag. Stay in place, very light and comfortable, don't even know they're there. Check them out.

and before you drop $100+ on something like this you should probably know that the pro models are WAY bigger than the retail models. I'd only suggest getting a size 5 if you wear a L or XL in retail pads. if you wear a medium in retail you'll need a size 4 and then you can just about double your cost estimate.

Don't get something just because they're 'cool', you'd be overpaying by a ton.
I'll probably get backlash for this, but the 7Ks aren't much different from the 4Ks I paid $20 for.
monty found these: http://www.ebay.com/...=item2ec72fb2b8
Incredible because if they had the JOFA name on them they would be selling for twice the cost.

I have been wanting to try out a pair of these, they look solid and I've heard nothing but good things

I got my brand new 7k pro elbows from an eBay member called pro_stock_hockey. Expect to pay around $200 plus shipping. I don't see any listed by him now, but if you message him he'll hold a pair for you when he gets his next shipment. Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with this guy, he just helped me get my elbows and shins.
I'd start with Bakerboy though if you decide to go the 7k route.

Right on as usual. I'm in 5s and i'm a L/XL in retails.

Thanks for the info guys. I am also a L/XL in retails so after some research, it seems the size 5 would be the best size. I will check out the Easton EQ line and the CCM CL's too.

If you come across any pro Easton Synergy 700s, try them out. You'd be a Large in those. Nice elbow pads.

If you're an L/XL in retails and have larger forearms and biceps get size 6
