Brian's OPTIK X4 SR. Blocker

The Brian's OPTIK X4 Senior Goalie Blocker brings the light, balanced feel of the OPTIK family to a more accessible performance-level construction. Its neutral hand position centers the board over the palm, helping the blocker feel controlled instead of front-heavy. A reinforced sidewall, squared thumb opening and removable thumb pillow add protection around the stick hand, while the reinforced synthetic-suede palm and open hinged cuff support grip and wrist mobility.

Brian's OPTIK X4 senior blocker features

• Balanced neutral hand position: Centering the hand behind the board produces a nimble, predictable feel through blocker saves and puckhandling.
• Bevelled performance board: The OPTIK-style face is shaped for controlled rebound direction while keeping the overall blocker profile streamlined.
• Reinforced sidewall: A rigid inside wall lined with high-density foam adds structure and protects the hand when shots strike near the stick.
• Squared thumb opening: The thumb cutout creates useful paddle clearance and helps reduce interference during stick movement.
• Removable thumb pillow: Additional padding behind the sidewall can remain installed for coverage or be removed for a more open feel.
• Reinforced synthetic-suede palm: Embossed material through the palm and index area improves grip security, moisture resistance and durability.
• Traditional wrist strap: A padded hook-and-loop strap provides a familiar, adjustable connection around the wrist.
• Hinged cuff with open backhand: The low cuff reduces contact with the chest protector sleeve and permits responsive wrist rotation.

Who should choose this goalie blocker?

Choose the OPTIK X4 Senior if you want a balanced Brian's blocker with a mobile cuff and a traditional wrist connection at a lower price than the Canadian-made pro model. It is well suited to adult recreational and competitive goalies who prefer a neutral hand position. The available TGC variants are regular hand in black, white, black/red and Bucky colourways.
