Bauer Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Equipment Combo

Bauer Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Blocker

Bauer's Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Blocker offers a responsive, precise feel with a lightweight build and distinct graphics, at a more accessible price point.

Build

Blocker Board: The Reactor R5 Pro blocker is built around a rigid, yet lightweight board; complemented by Bauer's springy Shocklite foam to fire pucks into the corners.

Lower Palm Positioning: Familiar to fans of Bauer's Vapor line-up, this blocker's palm takes a lower hand positioning. In practice, this places the board's flare a bit higher up the hand; improving leverage for effortless, precise positioning.

Protection

Shocklite Padded Fingers: To protect from stray pucks without compromising its lightweight feel, the Reactor R5 Pro blocker's fingers are surrounded with dense, Shocklite padding.

Adjustable Fit & Protection: Built for a personalizable fit, the R5 Pro blocker features individually adjustable finger tension for the non-index fingers. For further adjustability, the index finger's side is padded with dense, removable padding.

Molded F1 Side Plate: The Reactor R5 Pro blocker's side wall is reinforced with a rigid molded core, in Bauer's "F1" architecture. Signature to the Vapor line-up, Bauer's "F1" side wall features a deeper thumb notch, backed by a flexible thumb and plush padding. In practice, the "F1" side wall offers a flexible balance between stick handling and protection.

Fit & Feel

Palm Lining: Featured in Bauer's Vapor blockers, the R5 Pro blocker's palm is comprised of a plush, durable synthetic suede. On the ice the DuraConnekt palm offers goalies tactile-feeling paddle control with a soft padding to balance its control with comfort.

Aerolite Cuff: For precision positioning, the R5 Pro blocker's cuff secures with a single wrist strap and elastic anchoring on each side. Offering a balance of protection and mobility, the R5 Pro's cuff is comprised Bauer's lightweight, highly-flexible Aerolite foam.

Bauer Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Glove

Bauer's Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Glove is built to offer goalies a distinct throw-back graphic, in a lightweight and responsive package. Excellent for fans of Bauer's Vapor gloves, the R5 Pro glove's controlled, whole-hand closure breaks similar to a 590 with a smooth, anatomical feel.

Cuff & Palm

Smooth, Vapor-Like Closure Familiar to fans of Bauer's Vapor line-up, the Reactor R5 Pro glove offers a smooth, fingers-to-mid-thumb closure, similar to a 590 break. To help keep this glove projecting its best for longer, the R5 Pro glove's T-top is reinforced with Bauer's durable, yet lightweight CatchLite foam.

CatchLite Palm: Bauer's CatchLite foam pads the R5 Pro glove's palm to offer proper protection without compromising its smooth closure or lightweight feel.

CURV® Reinforced Cuff w/ Rebound Control Padding: The Reactor R5 Pro glove's cuff is reinforced with CURV® composite for a rigid, yet lightweight and responsive feel. Compared to commonly used impact-resistant materials such as ABS plastic, polycarbonate, and fiberglass composites, CURV® composite offers unmatched resistance to cracking, deforming, or splintering, at low temperatures. Padded with Bauer's softer, Rebound Control Foam, this glove offers an excellent balance between rebound pop and control.

Fit & Feel

Full Mesh Finger Stalls w/ Overlapping Pinky: For a comfortable, stay-cool feel, the Reactor R5 Pro glove's finger stalls are built from a soft, breathable mesh. To further enhance this glove's controlled feel, Bauer has integrated an overlapping pinky-to-ring finger stall.

Flexible AeroLite Backhand: Bauer's Reactor R5 Pro glove features a segmented backhand outer, built from Bauer's Aerolite foam and secured with elastic strapping. On the ice, this gives goalies proper protection for stray skates and sticks, without compromising its smooth closure, or lightweight feel.

CatchGrip Lining: Derived from Bauer's Vapor gloves, the R5 Pro glove is lined with Bauer's CatchGrip, a tacky embossed suede for a controlled, form-fitting feel.

Strapping

Wrist Strap: Bauer's Reactor R5 Pro glove secures the wrist with a plush, padded mesh, backed with a wide pull-strap. Additionally, the R5 Pro glove's wrist strap is exposed, running out of the cuff for easy on-ice adjustments.

Backhand Fit: Familiar to fans of Bauer's Vapor gloves, the Reactor R5 Pro glove secures the palm with three, easy hook-and-loop adjustments to tighten/loosen the fingers and palm.

Bauer Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Leg Pads

Adapted from Bauer's Vapor line-up, the Reactor R5 Pro Senior Goalie Leg Pads offer goalies a thin, lightweight pad with a flexible, dynamic feel. Printed with Bauer's throw-back Reactor graphics, the Reactor R5 Pro pads stand out, while coming in at a more accessible price point.

Core & Flex

Thin, Soft Flex Core: For a form-fit pad with a softer flex, Bauer's Reactor R5 Pro leg pads are built around a thinner, soft flex core. Featuring the stock flex profile from Bauer's Vapor X5 Pro and Hyperlite 2 pads, these pads are excellent for goalies who want a thin pad with strong rebounds, and a bit more flex through the knee and thigh.

CURV® Composite Reinforced Thigh: Familiar to fans of Bauer's elite equipment, CURV® Composite has been implemented to reinforce the thigh rise, without adding excess bulk or weight. Compared to commonly used impact-resistant materials such as ABS plastic, polycarbonate, and fiber glass composites, CURV® composite offers unmatched resistance to cracking, deforming, or splintering, at low temperatures.

Soft, Free-Flex 110° Boot: Bauer's Reactor R5 Pro pads are built to control the crease with a flexible, yet highly mobile feel. Featuring the Vapor line-up's more upright, Free-Flex boot, the R5 Pro Pads sit more flush on the skates and cover the posts with a softer feel.

Knee Landing & Calf Support

STABILIFLEX Knee Block w/ Included Knee Wing: Signature to Bauer's Vapor line up, the Reactor R5 Pro pads' knee block is integrated into the core for a direct response. Compared to the Supreme line-up's STABILISLIDE knee block, the STABILIFLEX knee gives these pads responsive, precise feel, while allowing for more flex between the knee and the pad's core. Included knee wing can be easily attached and removed with a simple hook-and-loop fastening.

Hybrid Calf Support: The Reactor R5 Pro pads feature Bauer's more dynamic, Hybrid Calf system, with a CORTECH outer lining material for quick slides and greater long-term durability. Compared to their Supreme pads, these pads offer a supportive butterfly, while staying flexible with an integrated calf pillow, and single reinforcing bracket.

Fit & Strapping

Strapping : For a highly-adjustable fit, the Reactor R5 Pro leg pads feature the Vapor line-up's Tune Fit Strap System. Bauer's Tune Fit strapping offers lightweight pad control, with easy, hook-and-loop fastening adjustments at the upper and lower calf. The Tune Fit system can also be entirely removed with hook-and-loop fastening.

Elastic Toe-Ties w/ Centered Bridge: Elastic toe ties secure each boot with more give over traditional skate lace toe ties, offering improved edge control and greatly reducing lower body strain.
