Brian's OPTIK X4 JR Goal Pads

Brian's OPTIK X4 Junior Goal Pads bring the structured OPTIK butterfly profile to developing goalies in a lighter, smaller package. A flat laceless face and streamlined outer roll help create predictable rebounds, while the pre-curved core supports five-hole closure. The one-piece knee block provides a stable landing, PRIMO material improves the sliding edge and the OPTIK 4-style calf wrap can be adjusted as the goalie grows and refines pad rotation.

Junior OPTIK X4 performance

• Flat laceless pad face: Creates a clean surface for controlled rebound response.
• PRIMO sliding edge: Helps younger goalies move laterally with less drag.
• One-piece knee block: Provides a consistent platform for butterfly landings.
• Dual-option knee strap: Lets the goalie choose a connected or looser knee feel.
• Smart Cord and Smart Boot: Keep the pad connected while allowing rotation around the skate.

Choose size by the centre of the knee block

Listed sizes include 25+1, 27+1 and 29+1 in black or white. Fit the pads with skates, pants and knee protection because each item changes the landing position. The knee must remain centred when the goalie drops, and the thigh rises should close without forcing the hips wider than a natural stance. Avoid buying excessive length for growth if it moves the knee off the block.
