Tried on the Element One and the pro stock Legend Pro. I loved a lot about the E1, very similar fit to a 2SPro imo. But I could feel some friction on the knuckle of my index finger that felt like it would hurt after a full ice time, even if I took the comfort pad out.
The Legend Pros fixed this, but they are a lot tighter in the wrist. That along with the extra thick palm overlay turned me off to them.

I might see how far some good foam sheets will take me.  I loved my Warrior HD pro shin guards until they cracked, but I would always catch pucks on the inside of my knee.  I tried the Super Tacks, but didn't find them that comfortable.  I got the vapors because the knee cap wrapped my knee really well; it felt like the sides of my knees would be the most protected.  

 

What Jofa models should I keep an eye out for that would be similar in fit?  I remember wearing Reebok 4K's for a season growing up, but my skinny little chicken legs were swimming in them.

I am using Vapor LTX Pro+'s
Bought them this spring when my Warrior ones started to crack.

Anyone ever beef up shin pads? Took a shot square to the shin a week ago and I am still feeling it. It was a good shot, but not crazy hard. Definitely the kind of shot you would expect to walk away from without another thought. I just got the shin gaurds in the spring, so I wouldn't think the foams have degraded that much. Would updating the liner foam help a lot? Could layers of fiberglass or cf be laminated on top of the shell and add some stiffness? Would be interested to see what people may have tried.
