Bauer S26 GSX INT. Blocker

The Bauer S26 GSX Intermediate Goalie Blocker brings the current GSX protection and rebound-control package to growing and smaller-handed goalies. A properly scaled palm and backhand improve hand connection, while the high-density foam board and Supreme-style side plate provide the coverage needed for practices and games. The Free-Flex thumb and adjustable cuff help developing goalies learn to steer rebounds and maintain a controlled stick grip.

Bauer S26 GSX intermediate blocker features

• High-density foam board: A protective foam face provides dependable coverage and controlled rebound response for developing and recreational play.
• Supreme geometry side plate: The inside wall borrows its shape from Bauer Supreme equipment to balance finger coverage with access to the stick.
• Nash palm with DCT foam: Synthetic suede improves grip while DEFENSE CLOUD TECH cushioning adds protection around the palm.
• Free-Flex thumb: A hinged thumb allows a more natural grip and easier transitions between save and puck-handling positions.
• Adjustable FLEX cuff: The wrist strap can be tuned for a secure fit while preserving enough movement to angle the board.
• ErgoFit backhand: The hand position follows the natural curve of the knuckles to make it easier to present the board square.
• Comfort foam liner: Soft internal foam reduces pressure points during practices and games.
• Streamlined finger protection: The protective package covers the fingers without creating unnecessary bulk around the stick.

Intermediate control for growing goalies

Intermediate sizing is designed for players who have outgrown junior equipment but cannot yet control a senior palm securely. The reduced hand area helps the fingertips engage the blocker, keeps the board from rotating and improves stick leverage. Buying the correct size is more useful than moving to senior early for future growth.
