  1. Set up a brand new work bench for my new SPARX skate sharpener last night. SPARX is sweet and the workbench is offering a lot of additional storage/organization for spare parts, tape, gear, etc. Hockey room is now hockey heaven! :)
  2. Sweet chesties guys, awesome score on that Brown. You'll be good on that thing for a nice long time. Here are some shots of me in my new Warrior kit. These are custom pro G2s, ordered two years ago (received June 2014...don't ask) and I'm just breaking them in now (sat out for a bit focusing on my career and my riding). Also got a new Simmons C/A this past spring to replace my old Simmons. And updated shot of my lid (Itech 961 with Maltese gel kit):
  3. Nice sock collection steel! Speaking of socks, I broke out the Mighty Ducks socks and pant shell for this morning's stick time. QUACK QUACK!
  4. Thanks! I had to play with the graphic a little before I settled on something I really liked. I tried doing the classic/retro option on the pads since I love the knee roll look, but I couldn't make it work well in that color scheme. But I think they came out well in the standard graphic and they play as great as they look. I agree the glove looks huge in the finger area, but it's really deceiving with all the padding. This is probably the first glove that really feels like part of my hand/an extension of my fingers, but I miss having an actual wrist strap to keep it snugger at the base. Probably just a matter of getting used to it. Glad you like the foamcores! Twigz make some great sticks.
  5. OptimusReim - how are you liking the foamcore? I think they're a good, happy medium between composites and wood. Medium weight, much more durable than composites with usually a pretty good feel. I have four foamcores; three of which I might never use because I cannot kill the first one. Congrats on joining the goalie guild, I remember you posting awhile back on this thread about that never happening - glad that wasn't the case! Here are the first puck marks on my Warrior Ritual G2 Custom Pro pads; today was my first skate with them. Minimal adjustment coming from my Smith 5000 set; it'll take a few more skates to dial stuff in, but overall the first skate went great and I barely noticed the different pads. I actually like the default toe and heel elastic; I was most skeptical of it, but that system worked well, felt good and didn't impede my movement (I impede my own movement, lol). In other news, I think I'll be seeing the doc next week because I came up LAME LAME LAME today with a nagging hip issue. Has nothing to do with the new pads, this is something that started on Monday after my second skate back and I'm hoping it's a fitness issue. Fingers crossed. :-/
  6. Glad to they're working great for you! Do you use the elastic toe strap or did you go to another set up? I'm going to try the elastic and see how I like it, but I have the sliding toe bridges as a back up. Elastic felt fine during carpet flys so we'll see. I saw some of your vids on GSBB and you play well! :) Yeah, I ordered these back in Dec '13, was quoted 8-10 weeks, and they didn't show up until mid-June. I moved back east at the same time and got busy with other stuff, so I haven't played any hockey at all and was totally out of the loop regarding Warriors production woes (aside from the six month turnaround on mine). I cannot believe what happened now that I'm caught up. That being said, I'm excited to take the unicorns for a spin and see how I like them! They have to be pretty good to get me out of my Smiths.
  7. Nice set Hills! How do you like them so far? My Warrior Ritual G2 Custom Pros. Got them in last June and they've just sat around the house because I haven't played since last April. I'm looking forward to getting these babies on the ice today. :)
  8. Thanks! Those are the Bonafide X SE's. Love the Warrior mitts, very comfortable and awesome looking to boot.
  9. Just a couple pics from yesterday, messing around at a couple of stick and puck sessions, taking the new uni's for a spin: (I normally play goal, I sometimes pretend to be a winger)
  10. I don't normally skate out, but I brought my goal skates into the shop today for a sharpening, and absolutely had to buy these babies: Gonna look awesome the half a dozen times I actually skate out this year. I'm beginning to understand how you guys collect player gloves so easily.
  11. Thought you all might get a kick out of me in my Heaton 6 set: This is my usual set up:
  12. LOL yep, they've been pretty well destroyed. Barely any steel left, and the back padding is falling to pieces. Boots are still good though.
  13. My collection of Grafs. 705 player skates, and three pairs of 750 goalers in various condition from brand new >> beaten to death.
  14. Just Hockey has one pair left on their eBay store: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Reebok-7000-Custom-14-Sr-Ice-Hockey-Gloves-/110674575326?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item19c4b7ffde
