True HZRDUS 7X4 INT. Goal Pads

The TRUE HZRDUS 7X4 Intermediate Goalie Pads scale the HZRDUS design for goalies who need intermediate lengths and proportions. Their reinforced thigh rise, flat face and adjustable FRS calf connection create a stable butterfly platform while keeping the pad responsive enough for developing goalies working on slides, post integration and recovery technique.

Intermediate HZRDUS 7X4 Technology

• Intermediate-specific proportions: The pad is sized for smaller goalies while retaining the structured shape and performance identity of the senior 7X4.
• Thinner, stiffer thigh rise: Compared with the earlier L20.2 profile, the upper pad is approximately 40% thinner and 30% stiffer to improve overlap and five-hole coverage.
• Flat blocking face: The HZRDUS face provides consistent coverage and an active response that helps move rebounds beyond immediate danger.
• Stable knee platform: The firm landing area supports clean butterfly contact and gives developing goalies a reliable base for lateral pushes.
• FRS calf strapping: Adjustable internal calf wraps secure the pad without relying on a complicated traditional strap system.
• Pro Laces toe bungee: The elastic toe attachment helps the pad rotate around the skate and reduces tension during post work and recoveries.
• Boot-strap-free setup: With no heel strap, the lower pad remains less restrictive and can move more naturally with the skate.
• Mid-tier performance package: The 7X4 includes several HZRDUS design elements in a game-ready model intended for regular competitive play.

A Structured Pad for Developing Competitive Goalies

The intermediate 7X4 is best suited to goalies who are ready for a firmer, flatter pad and want an adjustable calf connection without moving into senior sizing. Correct knee placement is especially important, so sizing should be based on actual floor-to-knee measurements and pad rotation rather than age alone.
