I know there is alot of guys on here that play roller hockey and i was just wondering what equipment do you think i should buy. So far i got skates, and i need to get a helmet, glove, and stick… what else do you guys wear? where do you guys get your equipment?
pants, shin pads, hockey bag
i actually just got a new bag from epuck.com… awesome prices…fast shipping.
When i buy things… its usually from epuck or inlinewarehouse.com Both great sites
Shin pads a must, elbows pads, cup. Roller hockey pants as Skunk said are a good idea too. I know a couple companies make shirts with some padding spread through out.
It all depends on what level you’re playing at and how you choose to play. If its recreation, you can do with less padding. If its a league, more is better.
Things you definately need to wear are…
-Helmet (With cage cause you can’t trust people in amatuer leagues, I don’t)
-Gloves
-Jersey
-Shin pads
-Roller pants (You will look like goofy without them)
-Skates (Soft wheels are a must, kmart specials won’t do)
-cup
Optional
-Elbows ( I don’t wear them, but falling on your elbows does hurt lol)
DO NOT WEAR SHOULDER PADS, you will be mad fun of.
I still have a helmet for you if you want it
Roller hockey pants, shin pads, girdle cups built in, elbow pads, helment 1/2 visor or full up to you or leauge statues, SOFT wheels like they said NO kmart specials 72A and under. Stick up to you what kind flex or weight you want to use
skates, shin guards, gloves, cup, helmet (depending on place) and roller hockey pants
what kind and what size?
and so far all i got are my skates i just bought… Tour blue max, they fit very nice…
lol… i dont think everyone has to repeat the same shit… i think he knows the basics now
Buy a light and dark jersey too. That way you’ll be set for any pick-up game.
^^ big :word: on that
you should buy some ice skates, cause thats real hockey
zing!
