Like I said in my post Sunday night, I don't know what there stock is but you're right - it IS a great deal.
Haven't tried it out yet, but my new Gold fits like a dream and actually feels about as light as my Davis. I was a very surprised because the posts here seemed to suggest the thing was bulky and heavy like shoulder pads! |

I got WV Platinum during the recent Gerry Davis sale.
I previously used the Wilson Gray MLU for over 5 seasons. I like the Platinum alot , it is much lighter than the Wilson Gray. However, it seems to push up & float over my shoulders when I go into my stance. The 1 piece molded upper chest-collar bone plate isn't really shaped to my body yet. I've only worn it for about 10 games, so far. I believe that I'm wearing it high and tight enough. Maybe it's due to the fact that I'm only 5'8" (160 lbs), and almost out of harness adjustment. I'm wondering if I should have bought the Gold. The upper chest & collar bone plates are seperate (similar to my old Wilson Gray). Jeff |

I just bought a WV Platinum today as well. I am not sure how much I will use it because I do like my Honig's K1 but I thought maybe the WV would provide more protection for the college games. Anyone that has both have any opinions?

i just got my plat last week. Same problem you had by finally after tinkering with the straps I got it high enough. I think I had to actually let out the shoulder straps, and tighten the back and side straps.
A huge improvement over the +pos armour. |
