Vaughn Ventus SLR3 Junior Goalie Blocker

New for 2022 is the SLR3 Junior blocker by Vaughn. The blocker features a range of high-level attributes and tech engineered to enhance performance, including a flex cuff, a double-layered ergonomically shaped palm, and a no-binding construction. The SLR3 is tailored specifically to optimize performance in the butterfly position, making it a good series for young players who often go down or find themselves in that position.

External Material
The SLR3 blocker uses classic jenpro synthetic leather on the exterior. Jenpro is well-known for its superior durability and performance. The cuff and thumb use nylon mesh for good breathability in those areas. The board has a bindingless construction, maximizing blocking space.

Internal Construction
The HD foam found on the inside of the blocking board offers reliable protection, pop on rebounds, and an incredible light weight. The same HD foam is established over the fingers to protect them as well.

Palm Material
The palm is ergonomically shaped and double-layered for good durability. It is outfitted with a cushion padding to minimize vibrations when impact hits the stick, and the new palm overlay enhances stick feel, in addition to wicking away moisture.

Side Hand Protection
The SLR3 features a stiff and lightweight sidewall and foam protection over the fingers to protect the hand. Mesh padding cushions the inside along the thumb for comfort and support. The use of mesh also helps keep that area ventilated.

Cuff
The SLR3 uses a flex-style cuff to allow for better freedom of movement when making quick saves. The wrist opening is large for additional mobility, and the top board has been optimized for rebound control and covering space. It flares out for improved deflection management. The adjustable wrist strap makes it easy to fix the cuff area to fit your wrist size and shape.

Hand Protection
Complementing the extra coverage given with the SLR3 gear, the blocker comes with a good amount of hand and finger protection without sacrificing movement. The fingers are covered by two-piece HD foam finger protectors, which sit over the fingers and are large to cover a wide surface area.
