Definitely not what I was expecting trav but man those Mach pads and glove set looks sooo good Great vid man See you in the next one buddy Stay safe

Thanks for the review. I think this is also a good lesson that everyone had a preference on how they like their equipment. I am a fan of the 600/75 degree break

I´ve been using Bauer Ultrasonic sets for the last 2 seasons and for this season I will be using Mach. It's been okay, but I've not been able to really find the perfect feel. The feel that I had before switching to Bauer, I was previously a CCM Premier guy. In the past, I was able to make it feel pretty much like a extended part of my leg, but with Bauer it feels like it's just a piece of wood sitting on my leg. Hopefully I will like the Mach set more

Great review. Thanks. Confirms what I suspected from Bauer, that I'm more of a Vapor/Hyperlite guy if I stick with Bauer. Currently have some 2S pros and I love the rebounds, but the stiffness does my hips no favors.

Thanks for the review Trav!!! I personally don't like a stiff pad, therefore I'll stay away from Bauer. I like a soft booth, lots of flex at the knee, I'll stay with my Vaughn V9 pads and gloves (580 break), I like to be very mobile and stiff pads just don't work, but that's my preference. Great review, keep up the good work. :)

Great review Trav, really leaning towards hyper lite for my next set, coming from warrior. But that blocker cuff on the hyper lite is annoying. I would love to see Mach cuff (or hyper lite skin on a Mach). Also with you that 600 break is a nonstarter, 590 is doable but who uses 600 these days?

I was thinking you might be a Vapor instead of a Supreme guy. I keep thinking you're actually a Vaughn guy... but you stopped using your V9 set and I wasn't sure why, other than "it doesn't fit my playing style". I've also been curious why you picked 20.2 and not 12.2. Seems like with your butterfly width (same boat) and the fact you like softer pads you would like more "hybrid" style pads... but you keep moving more towards the butterfly focused pads.
