Pad sizing check up.
I wear 32+1" is that too small for someone who is 5'9". My knee is right behind the knee roll and feels good. I wore 34+1 and felt too big in them, like I couldn't skate as well. Just wondering.
You might just have short legs. I'm 5'11" and wear 34"+2" and they fit perfectly. If it feels better to skate in and you play better in 32"+1" pads, then I say go for it. Personally, I'd consider upping the extra inches at least 1" if not 2" (or even 3" if you can pull it off while not diminish your skating), but whatever works best for you is what you should go with.
Just a proper measurement of your ATK, and we can help figure this out for you.Originally Posted by Avsfreak
