- Bauer's Vapor FLYLite leg pads evolve upon the Vapor lineup's ultra-light balance between agile response and flexible, ergonomic precision.
Build- CURV® Composite Thigh Rise: High-strength, ultra-lightweight CURV® composites have been implemented to reinforce each thigh-rise, ensuring rigid 5-hole coverage and proper pad seal. Compared to commonly used impact-resistant materials such as ABS plastic, polycarbonate, and fiberglass composites, CURV® composite offers unmatched resistance to cracking, deforming, or splintering, at low temperatures.
- Rebound Boost Core Padding: Familiar to fans of the Vapor lineup, Bauer's Rebound Boost foams pad core in a dense, springy composition to help fire pucks off the pad.
Thigh Flex Options- Thin Core w/ Soft, Dynamic Flex (Stock): Bauer's Profile 1 flexes around the goalie with soft-mid flex below the knee, progressively softening above the knee. On the ice, Bauer's Vapor lineup makes an excellent option for goalies who want a thin pad with strong rebounds, but prefer a more pliable flex compared to Bauer's Supreme pads.
- Mid-Flex w/ 151° Squared Profile (Shadow): Bauer's Supreme Shadow core prioritizes stiffness and wide post-to-post coverage. A softer flex compared to the previous Supreme Mach pads, Bauer's mid-flex thigh maintains the Supreme lineup's wide, 151° squared butterfly while allowing more flex in the thigh.
Outer Construction- S.L.1.D.3.R. Skin: Carried over from the HyperLite 2 pads, Bauer's S.L.1.D.3.R. skin is a one-piece thermoformed pad skin, designed for an ultra-light balance between durability and pop.
- Rebound Edge: Running the pad's outer edge, a stiff, low-profile outer roll runs down to the Vapor FLYLite pad's boot, helping to maintain the pads shape and minimize skip-over.
Calf & Knee Support- StabiliFlex Knee Block: The FLYLite pads land on a directly integrated knee block, layered with Bauer's adaptive combination of synthetic suede and tactile rubbers, Stabili-Grip. Compared to the StabiliSlide knee block featured on Bauer's Supreme pads, the FLYLite's StabiliFlex knee block helps to keep the knee centered while allowing a bit more flex between the knee and the pad's core.
- BalancePlate Calf Support System: Bauer's single-bracket BalancePlate system is designed to balance stability and flex more closely compared to the Supreme lineup's stability-focused double-bracket system. Furthering their balance between stability and flex, the Vapor FLYLite pads meet the ice with a streamlined calf plate, backed by a small calf support pillow to fill negative space, stabilizing the pads' butterfly.
Fit & Feel- SLYD TuneFit Strapping: Keeping with the Vapor lineup's focus on ultra-light flexibility, Bauer's low-profile SLYD TuneFit strapping allows goalies to easily fine-tune tension across the top and bottom of the calves.
- Reactive-Flex, 100° Flat Boot: Bauer's Reactive-Flex 100° boot anchors the FlyLite pads to the skates with a more ergonomic fit compared to Bauer's 120° Supreme boot. On the ice, Bauer's softer flex boot allows for easier, more precise ankle movements, while the added thickness promotes tighter rebound play at the posts.
Toe Options- Centered Toe Box w/ Kurim Elastic Ties (Stock): The FlyLite pads' centered toe box keeps a tighter feel at the skates, promoting precision movements down through the boot while allowing some flexibility in the ankles. For added security and durability, the Vapor ties secure with heavy-duty Kurim Polyurethane hook-and-loop fastenings.
- Centered Toe Box w/ Leather Elastic Ties (Supreme): Same toe box and elastic cord as the Vapor ties, but the Supreme toes fasten with more traditional leather hook-and-loop fastenings.
