New for the 2023/2024 season from Brian's is the latest collection, the ICON1K which takes over from the Gnetik series. The new ICON1K Catcher & Blocker share some very familiar feelings from the Gnetik with the catcher having a 35 degree closure for that same great feel and the blocker.
The catcher has some additions to it with HD foam added at the back hand of the fingers, curved fingers for better funneling of the puck in the pocket and adding BRI-CORE to the cuff for better stability when closing off the gap under your arm. We still have a game ready feel out of the box with a massive double T pocket and the smart floating wrist strap for a secure fit while providing great mobility.
Completing the set the new ICON1K blocker has the same great feel and balance that we know from Brian's, they have gone with a more flared design on the board for better redirecting rebounds, bindingless cuff and a new deep thumb notch to get a better connection with your stick. Some of changes to the shape of the board is it's been thinned out and squared off along with a more neutral hand positioning. Like other pieces we have BRI-CORE in the blocker board for improved rigidity adding to better rebound control.
