    Since Vizion is marketed as an "innovation line' that prototypes features before they become mainstream (ie original Vision stick had the ultra low kick which went to Trigger), I thought this version of Vision skate is re-introducing Ribcore line back, but I might be wrong. Definitely a very off decision to mess up a nice one-piece boot with a giant plastic shim! At least it's on the outside now so easier to remove. Which is what some NHLers have clearly done. And looks like some kept the shim but made is significantly smaller - 3 mm maybe? The shim on the inside for FT8 completely changed how the boot fits also. Hopefully Vizion also drastically reduces the amount of foam in the boot since the current get of skates (FT8 and XF) have gone to an extreme when it comes to putting giant pillows inside the boot lol

    I still find it wild that after decades of "you need carbon and you need to remove the outsole for best energy transfer" and then now they are adding plastic shims stock into a skate.

    My understanding is that Vizion isn't a line, but more of a special project that can change year to year. It highlights new advancements, but is not necessarily a particular product every year.

    Yea I figured you didn't see it all the way through/ all good. I emailed them with the email on the site, through the contact us, everything. I am guessing they went out of business.

    PRO29 is neutral faced compared to the wedgy P28. Look for more loft in whatever you get. Hossa could work. Other than the toe shape that is kind of a blend of P28 and PRO29: loftier, especially from the mid to the toe. PRO97 would probably be pretty weird. It's supposed to be considerably lower than the others you mentioned. I haven't seen one in person to confirm though.

    ProStockHockeySticks is a good option if you don't want to switch from the pattern you know.

    Bought a bundle of Johnny Gaudreau 55 and 65 flex prostocks years ago, I'm still using them. Bauer P14's aren't too far off from P88, but I'm not sure if those are still around or not.

    Pro stock hockey had a bunch of P88 curves recently (I bought two QR6 pros) and of course pro stock hockey sticks also had them in various kickpoints. Hockey stick man had a few at higher flex points recently. whenever I find a stick I like in specs I prefer I’ll buy 2-4 to have as they’re not as easy to find anymore

    Try the pattern database. Warrior W88 may be more available. Or True MC.

    P88 user here, been using this curve for 20+ years ( mainly Bauer and CCM sticks ). I like buying pro stocks, but it seems that P88 is becoming harder and harder to find. Using the google machine, it looks like P92/29 is the closest thing to a P88, but has a more open face. Is that correct and is it a drastic difference? I'm just a beer league defenseman, but I do shoot A LOT from far out and I've always enjoyed how the P88 kept my shots down with its relatively neutral face. Thoughts and opinions on those who have switched or use P92/29 please.... 🙂

    So is the Vizion line of skates supposed to eliminate one of the existing lines ( Tacks / Jetspeed ) or is this a reintroduction of a third line of skates? I'm still rocking my Ribcor 100k Pro's that i like so much.

    If you like the nexus stick with the Nexus. Eagles look like they are all external belts? I could be wrong but if so it feels much different than the internal system Bauer uses.

    I've been using the PRO29, but it's starting to feel dead and the toe's all chipped to hell. I liked the way it shot a lot, but I've finally realized that my sauce passes have suffered, and it doesn't really stickhandle the way I want it to (came from a P28). So I'm looking for a new curve. I really wanted PRO21 initially, but it was sold out. Thinking about PRO21 or P9246, possibly PRO81 or 97 too. Too many choices! I'm a low, fast skater, and more of a stickhandler than a sniper, so I feel like PRO21 is maybe the way to go, but it's tough to decide! Lot of love for these other curves out there. Either way, I gotta wait until they restock.

    I also agree it’s an odd decision. The funniest part to me is how people have been complaining for the last 5 years about the aggressive forward pitch of True skates only for them to neutralize pitch on their latest SVH boot while CCM introduces it. Wonder how many people will complain about it or if the sheep will remain quiet because they’ll claim forward pitch really improves your game…
  19. SolarWind started following CCM Vizion skates & the pitch
  20. SolarWind
    There’s a lot of buzz about upcoming Vizion skates and the final product into has emerged online. looks like CCM is continuing with this trend they’ve introduced with FT8 skates and they are adding a very sizeable (6mm?) shim under the heel? at least with Vizion it’s on the outside of the skate vs being hidden under the insole in FT8, but removing it would still be a hassle as the shop would need to re-rivet etc why would CCM do something like that? Sounds like a very drastic change of the pitch which would throw the current uses off especially if they prefer the neutral pitch of the ccm’s boot and XS holder?

    They're Ok. I'd say mid-tier. Not as nice as a Trickster or Pure-X, but don't cost as much either

    Byonic still sells their runners for the Easton CXN mako holder. Bought mine from them a little over a year ago. Note: Site says Canada, but they ship internationally as well. https://byonicskatebladescdn.itemorder.com/shop/product/17567745/

    I need some help with Eagle hockey pants vs Bauer Nexus Pro stock pants. I’m currently wearing Bauer Nexus Pro stock pants in XL+1 and I really like the fit, comfortable, not too tight, and good mobility. I’m looking at trying Eagle pants but I know they fit more like Tackla and tend to be a different style/sizing. I tried CCM HP35 pants before and they were way too big and boxy for me so I don’t want to make that same mistake again. For anyone familiar with both brands, do you recommend any Eagle model, and what size would be closest to a Nexus XL+1 fit? Should I be looking at XL or do they run too large? Any advice from people who’ve switched from Nexus to Eagle would be appreciated.

    No, because I'm not interested in purchasing them, just trying to help out. Sorry, you're having such a hard time. Have you tried reaching out to them via email or socials?

    I agree about multi color gloves... I'm so tired of solid colors with minimal accents, bring back gloves like those beauties.

    I know we were all sad when CPR closed down, but Ian at ITR has really stepped up his game. Here are two custom built gloves he repalmed for me. Both were modeled after the Hawks’ 2015 Winter Classic appearance where they wore multi-colored gloves like they did in the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, and early 90’s before switching to an all black glove with small red accents like they have today. All teams would look so much better with more colorful gloves IMO

    I'm looking for a sock that is similar in composition (material, compression, thickness, etc.) to Stable26 socks. Note that I do not need the silicone achilles/heel pads, just a regular sock. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.
