Hi guys can you please do me a massive favour.... can anyone who owns either kahuna rp's, ice sub zero's or blade runner pads please post pics of them.....especially rp's and blade
cheers
-
ive got the top of the range beasts if u want?
-
no mate not mad about the beasts so pics not needed but thanks any way.
-
ok mate i have RP's i can send you pics of, can i ask why?
-
maybe he wants to buy a pair
-
yeah looking to get a pair of any of the mentioned in small mens. want to see which is the smallest fitting and has the smallst top hat and looks nicest really.
-
Sam, why not try Newbery GT335 in small mens, they look great, offer class leading protection and have a small top hat.
-
newbery pads are a different class mate, highly highly reccommended, as is dealing with talisman, great bloke
-
talisman, i considered those or the spsII but i heard bad reviews about the spsII and i saw the gt335 on sunday whilst playing and they looked really odd....i think this may be becuase they were on a really odd, short, fat man but i'm not sure....
-
Tom's Itias pads have quite a small top hat?
-
and they have the same knee roll as the kookas
-
yeah have been told his are similar to rp's. how much are they? does he do msall mens?
-
I have the Kookaburra Ricky Ponting and they are very nice but not as good a fit as the Newbery SPS2's which are my favorite ever pad, tried the M&H Distinction but they look good without offering the protection.
-
Mike did you get my PM?
-
talisman, which are smaller fitting and smaller top hat out of the kooks and the spsII ? also anyone with blade runner opinion, pics or anything'
-
I would think the RP's by a little bit, GT's are a lot smaller top hat wise.
-
gt's do sound quite good. Can't decide now. Rp's blade runner sps gt.
-
I hav the new ss matrix pads very similar shape like newbery gt335 and I was also lookin into buyin smaller mens newbery gt335 but fount these ss matrix for almost half the price of gt.

I had a pair of GT's. they were the hens teeth !
-
I have some GT's too and I love them, really nice pads.
-
i have just used today, in a friendly match, some grizzly sample pads bought off mike, very similar to the gt's - very comfy and good protection but i just hope that they stop squeeking!
-
yeah definately gonna go for some kooks. saw the newbery's today and wasn't as keen on them, they didn't really feel right. going to look around for a place to try rp's and blade runners... should i wait for next years model? wondered whether it would be worth it?
-
depending on how long you want to wait to get the pads you might want to try http://onlinestockist.com/ (http://onlinestockist.com/)
have to wait a while for delivery but they will be the cheapest around, unless you get offered some pads from the kindly members on the forum, i think a few people have the rp's. Talisman has a couple pairs of the rp pads and gloves which i think he was looking to sell. They are good pads and the people i know who own them seem to be very happy with them.
-
yeah was looking at that onlinestockist to buy and sell to mates to make a bit of dosh! how much are customs charges?? and other hidden charges?
looking for SM LH which are probably the hardest to get out of all types of pads!! which is annoying...
-
No custom charges that i am aware of - postage for a bat is £11, gets cheaper with the more stuff you buy. Might be worth waiting a month or two and they may be selling off the 2009 stock a bit cheaper.
-
I doubt they will, a lot of it is ordered in as you order. They hold very little stock. I can also better Online Stockists prices if anyone is desperate.
-
get the sps2 mate, best decision you will ever make
-
I can get you some newbery SPS2 for £70posted.
-
small mens LH?
-
if they are i'll take them
