i play goalie on occassion. i play forward and goal so i alternate everytime. been playing for a while but never stuck with it as i like playing forward too
i have the reebok 4k set (pads glove and blocker) the pads are great but the glove and the blocker are starting to rip apart. i have a lowerend itech chest which i upgraded to a better eagle one but havent tried yet. in my experience, dont buy the lowerend stuff. you feel stingers from better shooters. i'd spend the extra money and buy mid level gear as it will give you more protection and should last longer. by all means im no expert just telling you from experience.
