The new 2023 Brian’s Optik X3 features the updates graphic from the Optik 3 with added primo on the inside sliding edge for improved lateral movement on the ice and a simple strapping system from the Optik 2. Going to the outside roll it has been greatly reduced and streamlined to reduce the weight of the pad and allowing for the appearance of a larger blocking surface. Much like previous models we see they have the smart cord toe system and smart boot strap that is removeable.
