Get To Know The Goalies
What stick do you use and why?
OBO Straight As Goalie stick because I like how easy it is to clear the ball out of the circle and how durable the stick is.
What helmet, leg guards and kickers do you use?
OBO ROBO Hi-Rebound Leg Guards allow me to get powerful/control clears. I can also get up and down easily with them. OBO ROBO Plus Kicker are lightweight and I love the square toe which allows me to have predictable and strong clears.
