Bauer S26 GSX SR. Goal Pads

The Bauer S26 GSX Senior Goalie Pads offer a comfortable, forgiving setup for adult recreational goalies, newer netminders and experienced players who prefer a softer pad. The GSX combines a traditional cut-and-sew exterior with modern Bauer butterfly features, creating a practical option for goalies who want controlled movement without the stiffness or price of an elite pro pad.

Comfortable and Easy to Control

• Cut-and-sew leather skin: Provides a familiar traditional look and durable exterior construction.
• Dual-density foam core: Two foam layers help absorb puck impact while keeping the pad manageable.
• Soft-flex profile: Makes the pad easier to bend and helps recreational goalies move comfortably in their stance.
• STABILIFLEX knee block: Supports controlled rotation and a stable butterfly landing without feeling overly rigid.
• C.O.R.TECH sliding calf plate: Helps the inside edge travel across the crease during butterfly pushes.
• Pro elastic toe system: Stretches through butterfly movement and returns the pad toward position during recovery.

Who Are the Senior GSX Pads For?

The senior GSX is a strong choice for adult goalies playing recreational, pickup, school or lower-frequency competitive hockey. Its softer construction can also suit goalies who find premium stiff-core pads difficult to flex or control. Correct sizing remains important so the knee lands securely in the knee block and the pad rotates without interference.

Pair the pads with the Bauer S26 GSX Senior Catcher, Bauer S26 GSX Senior Blocker and Bauer S26 GSX Senior Goalie Stick. Browse the Bauer goalie pad collection to compare GSX with other Bauer models.
