Overview
Designed for elite-level performance and control, the Vaughn ION Pro Senior Goalie Leg Pads deliver a powerful combination of rebound control, stability, and fast mobility. Built with a stiff upper pad profile and rebound-focused construction, these pads help goalies direct pucks away from danger while maintaining precise pad positioning.
The high-density inner core surface creates lively rebounds to quickly clear pucks from the crease, while the solid outer roll and stiff upper core provide stability and structure for modern butterfly goaltending. A quick-slide inner edge material reduces friction on the ice, allowing goalies to move laterally with speed and efficiency.
With features like an open knee cradle for quick pad rotation, wide leg cradle for strong butterfly support, and a thin top profile to reduce bulk, the Vaughn ION Pro pads offer elite-level control, mobility, and coverage for competitive goaltenders.
