Buying a lacrosse helmet is one of the biggest purchases you’ll make as a lacrosse player. Not only because of the cost, but because of the importance of cranium safety. I don’t know about you, but I like having my head working and attached to my shoulders!
You’d think with the importance of a helmet playing lacrosse, there’d be a plethora of options available. Not true. The last time I checked, there are more varieties of rid pads than helmets. As a side note, what are rib pads for anyway?

Buying a new lacrosse chest pad
It’s a common thing said about lacrosse goal keepers, they’re all a bit crazy. Who in their right mind would stand in front of a net while people throw rocks at them at around 150mph? It’s madness! It takes a certain breed of person to stand in the cage. They are a breed unto themselves.
Our club keeper told us he’s going to get a new lacrosse chest pad a while back. That sort of statement is just asking for trouble! One of the guys quipped “Why bother, the ball never hits you anyway!” Another “It’ll just get in the way when you get the ball out of the cage!” This went on for the rest of the session.
