True's P90tm blade is T90T per their website and per icewarehouse
-
Thanks, I appreciate the reply. I haven't seen the TC6 available locally to see for myself. I see them both listed as a 5, but did a bit of research online and read conflicting info, so I was hoping someone here had firsthand experience.
-
The truth is out there.... Both are listed as a 5 but who knows if they are exact or not, same goes for the pattern.
-
Old thread I know, but can anyone tell me if the CCM P90TM and True TC6 have the same lie? Are they the clones or slightly different?

Well…. My liver disease has come back again. My Hepatologist initially thought I would have a good amount of time until I would need to have any intervention or be relisted for a new liver. But since the first of the year I’ve been having more symptoms. Then last week my lab numbers skyrocketed. I got out of being admitted Friday. But the meds to lower my numbers didn’t work and I’ll be going in today. To say this is beyond heartbreaking is an understatement. I’ve done my best to be healthy as possible. I know I can do this again, but knowing everything I’ll have to go through again is hard to wrap my head right now. I guess I’ll need the liver hat trick now. They say the third times the charm,right?

I do recall it, but have not seen anyone selling it for a very long time.

Has anyone tried increasing the pitch on a Quad profile?
VegasHockey replied to Beflar's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
There are multiple versions of quad profiles, and they are not all created equal. In the last year or so I moved mostly to Elite profiles. https://eliteperformancetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Elite-Profile-Overview-V9-July-2023.pdf Maybe consider a Polaris Quad? -
Agree, who cares as long as FBV works for us. From my limited experience the most important are the edges and skating ease. Interesting topic, btw, why they do not use it? Is it because FBV is more fragile? Or logistics for team equipment managers? They may want to keep it simple.

Has anyone tried increasing the pitch on a Quad profile?
Beflar replied to Beflar's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Prosharp did not clearly differentiate between pitch and pivot point in some of their online content. They even listed "-20mm" as pitch. Thanks to ChatGPT, I now understand the difference between pitch and pivot point. What is the pitch on a Zuperior profile? Have you ever heard of anyone using that pitch on a Quad profile? Am I chasing a unicorn by looking for this combination? If I change the pitch on a Quad profile, will my skates spontaneously combust? -
I don't really give a shit.

Pitch or pivot point. You are mixing two things together. -
Not a single semi-pro or pro team uses the FBV. I will never understand why people are still trying to make this a thing.
-
Absolutely! I sharpen for about half of my son's high school team. So far all but one has switched to FBV and love it.

If the bag is still available I would gladly take ir

Zuperior M vs. Quad 1 – Thoughts on Pitch and Performance I love the explosive first step I get with the Zuperior M due to its increased pitch—it really helps with acceleration. However, at times, it feels like I’m gliding on skis, which can be a bit unsettling. That said, the speed and quick starts are excellent. The Quad 1 has a more neutral pitch, making it well-balanced for most situations. However, I feel like my first step lacks that extra pop. If I want to accelerate quickly, I almost have to go straight into a crossover—if that makes sense. Once I reach a good speed, it feels solid, and I find I have more agility compared to the Zuperior. Has anyone tried increasing the pitch on the Quad profile? Would that help with acceleration, or am I missing something? One thing that confuses me: both profiles are listed with a -20mm pitch, yet Zuperior is described as having more pitch, while the Quad is labeled as neutral. Does anyone know why that is?

True is changing names on everything. They had a survey out a few months back looking for different names for everything. Smoke will be one of the lines which has been seen for the new sticks already.

They are definitely much more robust than the normal retail offerings... I'll have to snap some pics in the next day or two and figure out how to post them on here. -

Also strange their 2025 catalogue lists nothing new. No new Hzrdus, nothing about the new Cat line, and no new SVH -
Wonder why they decided to launch another catalyst line a year after the 9x4

Especially if you aren't worried about growing out of them. -

218hockey replied to helmet91's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
I hope they're put together a little better than most Bauer shoulders like the 1N. Almost all Bauer shoulder pads we've had needed to be repaired. The shoulder cap and arm guard needed to be reinforced and the 1N uses some thin plastic pieces to coordinate the layers of chest protection. Those break. I'd love to see some photos of how the Pro Series are put together.
