But it is easy to look up mathematical formulas to see how things should work. I always get flak for talking about this, but I don't buy what marketing ever says until I use it for myself and can tell the differences. Any company that is talking about surface area is selling snake oil. My g5s don't slide faster than my G2s did nor faster than my JRZ Fusions do (which have weave jenpro and no gliding tech). Friction isn't calculated based on surface area and it is a purely marketing gimmick. You can see the Fast Glide compared to the Speedskin at 12:47 in this video: Lefevre currently offers "Fast Glide" on their customizer so I can't see it changing when going to True. I cover it in this video (at the beginning): It slides okay at certain angles but if the conditions are perfect it is worse than normal jenpro. Speedskin is the worst, it was originally made for street hockey gear (it came first on the Eflex 1 street hockey equipment) and is a way to use thinner materials rather than sliding benefits. Regular Jenpro and weave/carbon/carbone Jenpro slide really close to one another. Partially due to how hard Bauer's landing surface is.īrian's Optislide is really good and basically started the new materials, but it slides worse than Vaughn and slightly worse than Coretech. It does drop off on worse ice though, all pads will.īauers Coretech is the 2nd best in total speed, and loses the least amount when the ice gets worse. Vaughn's Quickslide is the best, while the material is the same as Brian's Optislide it is coated differently and it gives the best sliding on all ice. Most of the materials companies are using do make a significant difference and are worth it. Want General Hockey Nonsense?
