Brians Sub Zero 6.0 Goalie Blocker [INTERMEDIATE]

Description

Brian's brings the insanely popular Sub Zero Pro II blocker to the masses with the new 6.0 catch glove for 2014/15. Though the glove is made internationally to bring costs down, 90% of the materials sourced for construction are equal to or the same as those found on the domestically made Sub Zero Pro blocker. And with Brian's unmatched one-year limited warranty, you can be confident that the construction quality and performance will meet the high standards that Brian's has set in these areas over the past several years. We've compared the Sub Zero Pro and the 6.0 blockers side by side, and we could barely tell the difference. For starters, the blocker board is constructed using rigid HD foams, and the perimeter of the face features bindingless board construction. This gives the blocker a nice, clean look, and it also allows for the inside edge of the blocker to be attached to an integrated cheater side deflection plate. By taking a closer look at the blocker face, you'll notice that Brians has decreased the width of the board to 7.5 inches, while increasing the width of the side deflector at the attachment point to the board by nearly 1/2 inch. By decreasing the blocker board width, weight savings is realized without affecting the width or performance of the board. The side deflector is also made of rigid, dual density HD foams, and behind the deflector sits an additional air pillow comfort pad that is removable if you don't like it. The stick insertion point of the side deflector has been cut back more deeply so that it does not restrict stick grip. Fingers are protected by HD foam wrap around protection, with softer LD foam backing. The palm of the Sub Zero blocker is made of Nash with airknit mesh finger gussets, and it also features a new SBA material on the palm and thumb. This new SBA material is unique in the fact that it gets tackier as it gets wet, meaning that your stick grip will not deteriorate as your hand swea
