The Vaughn VE8 Pro Carbon SR blocker continues the legacy that the Velocity line established many years ago. With modern materials like Vaughn’s Carbon Enhanced Performance, the Velocity VE8 Pro Carbon is sure to be familiar to Vaughn goalies but perform and feel like the modern blocker that it is.
The Vaughn VE8 goalie blocker features a VX suede palm that has a grip zone to make sure that the goalie has the best grip on their stick, even when the palm is wet. This palm is also attached slightly higher on the blocker board (think more towards the ramp of the blocker) with four attachment points allowing for further reach past the fingers when the goalie is extending to make a save.
As previously mentioned, the VE8 Carbon Pro senior blocker features Carbon Enhanced Performance throughout the blocker. This is included in the finger protection where 3mm of carbon fiber resides, as well as through the sidewall and bindingless face of the blocker where the Full Pro spec construction resides.
The VE8 Pro Carbon senior blocker gives goalies the traditional soft Vaughn feel that they are looking for, with the decreased weight and material improvements that modern blockers bring to the table.
