Was bored at work so i figured i'd post this. Not pictured here is a pair of Bauer Supreme Composite ice skates and another pair of Graf Ultra G7's that are still in the box. Safe to say i have problems. Currently not even playing either. For reference these are: Bauer Vapor 10's with a Kuzak split chassis 80/72 Graf Ultra G7 with a Mission Generator Pro chassis 80/72 Bauer Supreme Composite 5000 w/ black tuuk Bauer Supreme 7000 pro stock w/ white tuuk Graf Ultra G7 with Cobra holder Bauer Supreme 7000 non pro stock Micron Mega Air 90 boots only Bauer Vapor 10 boots only Bauer Supreme 5000 with Kuzak split chassis

My first Rookie League game is this Sunday, I am excited. I'm sure the ability level of the skaters will be all over the place. Oh well, got to start somewhere. Also, my buddy whom has played goal all his life (and is 10 years younger) is going to give me some on-ice instruction at a StickTime on Monday. I am thinking of bringing the GoPro for that one. Side note, the same guy mentioned above works at Goalie Monkey and said I just missed Ryan Miller by 10 minutes yesterday when I was on my way to the store.

I would not go with Crew+. At 220, I would say the Comp would be the lowest price skate I would recommend. Team would be better.

Colleagues who have zero sense of urgency.

Yes, you got to take into consideration many of their radius are tailored for Swedis/scandinavian skaters. A north american skater would whine about the skate feeling like a ski, as such not many of us would like that particular radius, just like we don't like skating on 1" hollows.

Great taste in boots there: Mega Air 90's, Graf G7's, Vapor 10's.

I love the teams. Good level wheel, nice boot and chassis, and you can get it in several sizes on clearance after codes for around 150 shipped. To me, at that price, its a steal and what I advise most people I know to do when they have boots in bad condition and see my teams. Now im in max's for indoor which I scooped up for 240 after codes, they have over 100 in wheels alone. The main upgrades that I am interested in on the max+ is the quarter and liner, but I have to see if I am going to stick with roller before id invest in those. I was fairly successful my first season back, switching to the max skates about 3 weeks ago. some guys at a pickup even commented on how quick I was, and were shocked when I told them I hadn't played but the last 3 months since '00. is it the skates? now to just get the stopping down, I have noticed it easier with the addiction wheels though.

But think of all the good that tax money is doing. Oh.....wait.........you live in Massachusetts................nevermind.
