  1. How long ago did you have yours done? Because numan said that Bauer stopped doing full customs for non-pros around June of this year.
  2. Tried numan, tried DK (which is where I ended up getting these CCMs from). Steph said couldn't do it for me even though she had access to the full customs because I'm not a player on her roster so Bauer wouldn't have taken the order. When I go through these CCMs if Bauer is being less stingy with their customs then I'll try them again. Would really love to have a 1N/G3 flex profile with a 1X blade (or whatever will be the stiffest blade they offer at that time). Plus the curve that I use is in Bauer's database already.
  3. I've asked around the main guys and they all said they would only be able to do "stock" curves aka no pro-moulds (but more options than on mybauer), and no mixing and matching blade stiffnessed with flex profiles.
  4. Through a shop in CT. Some brands are more receptive to custom orders from everyday consumers than others. I would have liked to get Bauer customs but the options that are available to non-pros are terrible, so I went with CCM since I'm familiar with their sticks, too (used a SicKick for like 3 years).
  5. New twigs came in today:
  6. The definitely holds an edge better than regular steel, so throughout the course of a game I get the same skating glide and bite during warmup as I do during the final seconds of the 3rd period. They also just feel stiffer when I'm trying to make sharp turns. Yes, the coating is mirror finish.
  7. I thought Bauer wasn't letting steel companies use the Edge patent?
  8. Best steel I've ever skated on. My profile specs definitely helped, too.
  9. I was looking on their website, doesn't say anything about baking them? So I guess you just plug and play?
  10. Is there a trial program? Would love to try them out but don't want to spend $50 on something I might not end up liking.
  11. People still use yellow laces? :P
  12. Pat's came back today.
  13. If carbon-coated steel isn't supposed to be stoned, how do you get rid of the lip that builds when you initially crossgrind the steel?
  14. But I've noticed the CCMs have a rounder heel and toe than the LS3 steel. My LHS should be able to copy those contours, right?
  15. Weird question but are there contour "specs" for CCM stock runners? I want to get my LS3 steel contoured to how the CCMs are but I don't know what to tell my LHS and they don't have a stock CCM runner to trace to do it.
  16. Old and busted with the new hotness. Was able to get these on clearance for $370±.
  17. What's pricing like for these custom mold skates?
  18. So I don't know if it's the flex (most likely is) but I cannot stand my One90. It feels so slow. Granted, I've been using LK sticks for my entire life, but man does it shoot like a wet noodle. Again, it's probably the flex (77 and I've normally used ~87).
  19. Isn't the One95 touted as one of the greatest sticks ever made? I've got a One90 and it feels so slow. Maybe the 77 flex has something to do with it but it really flexes like a wet noodle. And I'm not a strong guy by any means.
  20. Found this in storage at the LHS I work at. Manager gave it to me for free.
  21. Any NJers know if the Devils are still having their Draft Party/equipment sale this Friday? Google gives me details for last years.
  22. Knob tape: 10/10 Blade tape: I guess you like having a 490 gram stick? :P
  23. Old and busted with a liner that doesn't stay in next to new hotness.
