A friend of mine owns a guitar company and he made 5 '59 Les Paul replicas a couple years ago. They are a sweet sounding guitar. I am still playing my Carparelli LP knockoff but it's a great guitar for the cash. I've sold off most of my gear over the years but still hang on to my Mexican Fat Strat, LP knockoff, 2 Washburn acoustics, and my Vox Valvetronix 40+. That's more than I need anymore.

Picked up a Dynasty AXY-SYM, 85 flex, Gionta curve. Taped up and ready to go to hockey tonight. Wanted to wait for a Covert DT1/LT but couldn't pass this up for $79.

Or maybe because no one else at Tron is aware of this issue yet. Perhaps we should be a little more patient with them. I mean, after all, wouldn't we expect the same in kind? I'm not saying that either party is right or wrong. I'm just saying that we could exorcise a little more patience before we release the hounds of hell.

My local Source For Sports has demo skates for most of their higher end skates. I tried on a pair of the RBZs when they came out. I got to skate in them for a week to try before dropping $800. I'm just waiting for them to sell of their demo skates now. I'm curious now to know if they have demo Makos. I'd love to give them a go.

Pictures are helpful too. Not rules, just a recommendation.

Not gear but I thought i'd show it off.

Really digging the RBZ protective line. At first look I wasn't sure if I liked the 30k gloves but after a few looks I really do.

These are from back in 2008. Still skating on my old Nike skates, using a Koho stick, and back in the days of the visor.

Funny that I did it playing ball hockey at work and it was my boss that caused it. He's just happy to have me back so we can continue to chirp each other during games.

After 8 weeks on the shelf with a fractured pelvis, bulged disc, and 3 pinched nerves, I played quite possibly the worst game i've played in years. This is my second week back but tonight was especially bad. I had hands of stone and feet to match. I seemed to always be in the wrong spot. The upside was my passing was crisp and on the mark for the most part so i'll take that positive and run with it.

I got my SK300 socks during the holiday sale. $9 for a pair of hockey socks can't be beat. I find them slightly snugger than my Reeboks but not uncomfortably so. I also prefer the looser ankle as I like to tuck my skates into my sock. I really like the velcro on the front and back. The Reeboks only have it on the front side. I find they breathe really well too.

I have ordered from Tron a few times, just socks, jerseys, and accessories. I live in Canada so I have the items shipped to a US shipping depot and pick them up there. My last order was placed at 1:00 on a Friday and was received in Michigan on Monday. I received an email within the hour to let me know that my order was packed and ready for shipping. Not too shabby. Now that I know a little history behind Tron and the fact that they have so many Chrises there, i'm far more inclined to order more.
