Intro & New Features
Inspired by previous Vapor models that were successful, the Source Exclusive Vapor Shift Pro elbow pads have an anatomical 3-piece design for mobility and a Dynaflex strap to keep it in place. Whether you’re new to the game, play for fun, or an upcoming star, these elbow pads can be the ones for you.Construction
The Shift Pro elbow pads have a 3-piece construction which provides players with protection and security in all important areas surrounding the elbow, and allows for great mobility while playing. Each piece is light and able to move independently based on your movements, while the strapping and 360 forearm help keep everything in place.Bicep & Forearm Protection
Both the biceps and forearm on the Shift Pro are protected with molded Hyperlite foams to provide a competitive level of coverage during your game. The molded feature makes the pads fit closer while eliminating excess material, so players can move quicker and more efficiently. The adjustable bicep strap also provides an additional level of protection to players from impacts.Elbow Cap
The molded cap cover protects the elbow from impacts of all forces. When adjusted properly with the straps, the elbow should fit snug within the pad with not alot of room for unwanted movements. The integrated foams surrounding the elbow keep it locked and secure, without sacrificing mobility.Strapping System
The Vapor Shift Pro elbow pads use the Dynaflex strapping system which can be found on many previous Vapor elbow pads. Dynaflex is both tough and soft, which makes it able to give players max protection without sacrificing mobility and has elite comfort and anchoring abilities.Liner
Bauer has implemented their upgraded Thermocore Zero liner in the Shift Pro elbow pads. Thermocore Zero is amazing at wicking away moisture and repelling odour. In addition, this liner has cooling properties, so you can stay nice and refreshed while you play. The comfort liner is also molded and removable for a closer, more custom fit, and also to make the pads easier to wash.Sizes

Hockey Elbow Pads Sizing Information
When fitting or trying on elbow pads, there are a few things to look at to make sure you have a proper fit. To start, make sure your elbow is placed in the center of cup or designated area and fasten the elbow pad using the straps. You will want to make sure that elbow pad is snug and secure and will not slip off the elbow joint. As well, move your arms around with each pad on, range of motion is key, and you will feel mobility differences in each product. If the elbow pad is too big it will shift and slide around on your arm. If it is too small your elbow will feel like it is sitting above the pad.
Elbow pad strapping is semi-adjustable, so if you find a pad that you like the feel of on your arm, adjust the straps until it fits securely. If the strapping feels too tight against your arm and you are unable to loosen it further, this is a good sign that you may need a bigger size. As well if you have fully tightened the strapping and the elbow pad is still loose or shifting on your arm, a size down will probably work better.
When looking at different elbow pads, there are a variety of different features to choose from. Some models will be offered in a soft elbow cap (although this is becoming more uncommon) and other will come with a hard plastic shell. As well, strapping systems can change and straps such as anchor straps or lock strap with provide a better lock to the pad than a regular elastic strap. These features are personal preference and usually are dictated by price range as well as brand. Once you have a feel for what you like or dislike you can narrow your choices.
When viewing sizing online, most elbow pads will be offered in Small, Medium and Large. Sizing charts are provided below and on each product to double check where you line up and as well list all the sizes available. These charts are for reference only and personal preference is a factor as well when looking for the best fit.
Compare your height, weight and age to the charts provided to find your best fit. As well, put on your shoulder pad and gloves and have someone measure the space/gap in between (in inches) to determine the proper sizing.
