    They are still around. Just not a lot of stores selling their product.

    FT6 Pro, FT Ghost, or Trigger 8 Pro. I obviously gravitate towards CCM sticks.
  3. VegasHockey
    Yes, the XS Reload 😉 But let's not discuss that since it won't be out until 2025.
  4. VegasHockey
    I would not say it is better or worse. That's a subjective opinion. Some might like it more than the current generation sticks, some might like it less. For example, look at how many NHL players are using stick builds that are 4+ years old and they seem to be doing just fine.
  5. VegasHockey
    Interesting to see him use them in games though. Practice, that is usual for many players, but using something new in a game is not common.

    Anything that has material removed to decrease weight is going to be more fragile. YMMV. It could last days or could last months.

    I have hit that point in my life that I will gladly pay the extra money for items if it makes me comfortable. 😉

    I actually like the Alpha and depending on your level of play, it might be a good option. I have taken some nasty shots from NCAA D1/D3 and ACHA D1 players, and the girdle did fine with protection. Unless you are planning to eat shots often, the Warrior girdle would be fine. I like that they have a cup pocket in them so you can either wear two cups or not wear a cup in your jock and instead put the cup in the girdle.

    Looks like Nate Dog is testing the Bauer Proto.

    I think if you can't find anything at retail that fits well and doesn't cause you pain, then the only natural decision would be to go full custom. I skate with a lot of people who buy $1100+ skates, complain about the pain they have, yet refuse to pay the small fee to upgrade to a custom skate... It's not logical.

    I do. But it would be best to ask them, I don't think they would appreciate me sharing any of the proprietary information.

    I looked into these machines before decided to move forward with a Skatescribe ISP machine. The finish of the Skatescribe ISP makes this machine irrelevant.

    Not sure if I agree that the carbon ones offer any increase in performance compared to the comfort. They are both very different in design. IMO, the best foot bed is the one that feels most comfortable.

    I have never seen a 280 holder mount in 271 holes unless the holes are expanded or worn out. That is VERY weird.
  15. VegasHockey
    I can't tell from your pic of that is indeed a 271. Is that's what's stamped on the holder?
  16. VegasHockey
    It is possible. But then that would theoretically affect the engagement of all steel, assuming they all had the same dimensions.
  17. VegasHockey
    Dimensions are the same as the Pulse steel. You want something taller? Consider JRZ.
  18. VegasHockey
    Are both the DLC and SS exactly the same if you lay them on one another? Even a small variance could result in the problem you are experiencing.
  19. VegasHockey
    Agreed. I was kinda saying it “tongue in cheek” since it's been widely known he has had his fair shared of struggles. https://www.secondcityhockey.com/chicago-blackhawks-2022-23-nhl-regular-season-recap-connor-murphy-player-review/

    Maybe he will begin to deliver on the expectation that were set when he got drafted 20th overall 😉
  21. VegasHockey
    Maybe he didn't want to break in a new pair of skates. Who knows. I know a lot of players that use one brand for ice and another for roller. I never have thought to ask why...
  22. VegasHockey
    If the holders are MAX and the steel has the "locking pin" there should be no movement in the steel. I would take a video and email TRUE. This would be the first time I have seen this myself. The previous generation holders had some issues with smaller size holders, but the MAX holder resolved all of that. I too, am stumped.
  23. VegasHockey
    Bladetech and Byonic.

    Warrior isn't going to fit you well then, I'm 5'11" and wear a 32" wearing a size medium. I think of you put it on it would sit too high and leave a significant gap between your shin and thigh. Do you not like the Jetspeed?
  25. VegasHockey
    He can get as many pairs of skates as he wants. I assume he had custom skates made for roller.
