    Seems like they have a very similar holder to the new Warrior skate. I wonder if they come from the same factory?

    Bauer Nexus 1000 is the last stick I absolutely loved.

    Try the Aetrex Bauer

    The Genetix insoles that come with some True skates are squishy and would be nice if you’re a ref or coach in your skates all day. As a player I feel they take up too much volume and deaden the feel of the skates
  9. xstartxtodayx started following Daoust - They're baaack.. and Comfortable hockey insoles.

    I love my Sole insoles, they're heat moldable and don't raise your heel as much as some others (like Superfeet). I use Sole Active thin, but they also have a medium version with a touch more padding but honestly the thin have more than enough padding imo.

    Title says it all. I don't care if the comfort has a detrimental impact on performance; I'm still interested.

    I'm all for it, if anything we need more variety in the mid to high performance levels, not saying they need to build a pro level skate but something most beer leaguers could really enjoy. The 701 looks interesting and the 501 in white looks gorgeous. Now will they do a blue holder like the old ICM's Gretzky rocked? Maybe this opens the door for some other classic brands to come back... looking at you Micron, I would so rock some new modern Mega Air 90's.

    The 701 looks to be a serious skate with some interesting specs like a clarino liner and some version of coated or treat black steel. At that price point, if I were looking I would try a pair. From what I could find, it's one guy not a major corporation. He owns the Daoust name and is trying to bring it back and be true to their heritage. I think the industry needs this. No clue if he'll be successful or not but it's nice to have options.

    This is just it right here. The number of reviews that start with "my son says..." is shocking.
  15. Sniper9 started following CCM Pro Stock Pant Models
  16. Sniper9
    Wait, so is the waist size listed on CCMs pants your waist measurement or the pant size you wear? I know with Bauer their number sizes are for pant size as they tell you to measure your waist then subtract 3 from that number (which is essentially what your pant size would be). But I always wondered what the numbers on CCM pants referred to. I'm 5'10 160 lbs and my pant size is 30 and waist measures at 32-33". I fit a small in the hp45 snugly when it's new but when broken in (within 4-5 wears) it fits perfect. As for length, it is fine both zipped or unzipped as I like my pants to just fall an inch over the top edge of my shins knee caps at most.

    I assume any good review is a paid spam post from the company, and the negative review is someone whining that their $400 stick broke in 31 days, or their $115 stick is heavy and sucks. The general public is (I am trying to find a polite way to say idiots)…. something. I don’t trust any equipment reviews from Reddit for the same reason. People with no background or knowledge holding forth like experts. Read/watch reviews from hockeyreviews.ca , and discuss equipment on here. This is literally far and away the best hockey equipment discussion place on the Internet. There’s no reason to read what some Karen who has never played hockey has to say about her 13 year old’s stick.

    Some of these look so much like Riedell rental skates.

    I want a pair of those 301s with the awesome liners.
  21. stick9
    Growing up I lusted after a pair of 301's with clear tuuks. I am tempted to give the 501's a go just for kicks. https://www.icewarehouse.com/Daoust/catpage-DAOUSTB.html

    Finally decided to pick one of these up. I grabbed a OG blue mid kick p88 70 flex. The last few seasons I have been experimenting with sticks. I typically go for a college pro stock nexus stick. Tried a few of the 5 sided nexus sticks and I'm not a fan. A friend suggested I switch to a p92 because there are more sticks available at pro stock. The p92 was okay, but never felt comfortable. A few weeks ago I decided to grab one of my all time favorite sticks pro stock 2nproSE p88 82 flex and I had a great game, everything felt right that game. I decided to go back to the p88. Since pro stock P88 sticks are somewhat hard to find I wanted something I could regularly get if I needed a stick. For the price I figured I'd try one. I have only played one game so far with it. I was very impressed with the stick. The weight, flex, kick point everything seemed pretty good and seemed very close to a 2npro for me. My only issue with the stick is I feel like the grip isn't very grippy. I am used to more grip I guess. I will wait and see if he does the custom stick discount and grab one with the basketball grip and see if that makes a difference. Either way though I am a fan and if I can't find 4 sided Nexus p88 sticks I will pick up more of these.

    -CCM Ultra Tacks (incredibly smooth and consistent mid-kick) -Bauer Nexus 1000 (personally what I think is the last good Bauer stick made) and agreed about weight. I think sticks are getting way too light. I personally don't like playing with a sub 400g stick; the feel just is off.

    Gotta chime in as well..as I age rapidly... Well before the 10 year ask, but, Easton Synergy SL Grip Drury 85 flex Just within ask of 10 years...Bauer Nexus 2N Pro 70 flex PM9 Current (finally into the "NEW" age Bauer Pulse P28...yep, finally learned how to "shoot" in the modern era...

    I get where you're coming from. That said every single stick on their website had just a bunch of reviews complaining about the stick breaking. The volume of those reviews was tied to the popularity of the stick, not the durability. It was impossible to decipher any value from the reviews. I think you have to go look in other areas to learn about real durability issues.

    Bauer 2N Pro. It's still a great stick. We just bought two like new senior's for $200. Score.

    I do wrist bands in my player gloves, at least I did back when I skated out (its been almost a decade now). It wouldn't work with my gear but other setups it may be good.
  31. stick9
    Have you considered wrist bands? I know this i popular with guitar players to prevent sweat from running down their arms onto their hands. Even with liners, your gloves will still get wet. The liners would only help keep your hands dry or drier.

    No not really for me either.
