The most notable change on the new Bauer 2S Pro leg pads is the addition of the C.O.R.Tech ST technology to the external skin of the pad. Bauer revolutionized goalie pads with the introduction of the CORTECH on the 1S OD1N pads, which provided a laceless design for ultimate rebound control and superior sliding ability. Now with the addition of ST (for Super Tough) the CORTECH ST is a more durable version of the revolutionary design. Other reinforcements include the addition of a traditional top welting to reduce wear in that area, as well as reinforcements at the boot.
The Supreme 2S Pro Leg Pads continue to be the fastest sliding goalie pads on the market. The knee stack and inner calf material is very stiff allowing the pads to slide extremely proficiently, and the bindings on the calf from the 1S leg pads have been removed on the 2S Pro to provide less friction and an even better slide. The knee landing has also been updated with a new nash flat front design which will be soft and comfortable, as well as hold up to wear from knee pads.
The internal break on the 2S Pro leg pads will be the same as its predecessor with a single internal break below the knee, providing a stiff feel and ultimate 5-hole coverage. The addition of Curv composite on the thighrise reduces weight while increasing rigidity to thin out the profile of the Powerlite core design on the pad.
The Bauer Supreme 2S Pro leg pads continue to use C.R.S. (Custom Rotation System) strapping, with 2 sizes for each strap, allowing the goalie to dial in the right fit while increasing rotational properties. The strapping is combined with vent armor calf wrap with 37.5 technology to both reduce weight and keep the pads dry. The 2S Pro leg pads will also feature the offset toe ties seen on the Vapor 1X leg pads with stretch toe laces.
