In my second pair of Trues. Went Black with Tuuks and Step Black Steel this time, first pair was Black/White.............The Black Steel is incredible. After Trying the True/Step Holder went back to the Tuuks. There is a slight weight difference.

I can tomorrow my son has them on his now. Look good!! With engraved step steel. Offering that starting in July.

We have a few "Dedicated" Refs over here in Doha, Qatar but to make the League work we have to have players Ref so sometimes they've played a game prior and just throw on a Ref Jersey. This was one of those cases 🙂

Couple of decent shots from a game a couple of weeks ago...

First time I've ever played in a tournament. Won the first game Friday night 2-1. On Saturday we lost the first game by a score of 3-1 with an empty net (I'll get to that in a moment). Saturday night we beat the eventual champion 4-3 in a shootout (I'll be getting to that one as well). The team that won the tournament actually had two games they won with a score of 10-2. We ended up not making it to the championship. We were tied with another team for points, and goal differential, and ended up breaking the tie with a head-to-head (the team we lost to so they owned that tie breaker). Now for those notes... if we had won the third game in regulation rather than the shootout, we would have had the second most points and played in the championship. Beyond that, if we had NOT pulled the goalie in our 3-1 loss, we would have also owned the goal differential tiebreaker from a 2-1 loss and still made the championship. Oh, hindsight on the decision to pull the goalie... I never in a million years would have thought an empty net goal in the second game would have ended our run... All in all I'm pretty damn proud of our team. Being eliminated on the THIRD tie-breaker shows we played well enough to win. Knowing we also beat the eventual champions meant we very well could have taken the whole damn thing. That said, it was kind of nice to get to go home Saturday and not play on Sunday (at least, until my usual league game!) What a crazy week. Hockey Wednesday night, Softball Thursday night, hockey Friday night, hockey twice Saturday, and hockey Sunday night. I'm pretty sore.

I believe if you provide the serial number or order number in the footbed of your boots, they can make an identical pair to them.

Are you getting re-fitted and going through you LHS? I would love to know if it's possible to just order a new pair from True from the specs of the last pair they have on record (assuming no changes to one's feet).

If that's the case then props to him for being thorough. I have seen a few true skates with either enlarged holes or holes that are a bit off causing rivets to not sit flush and or straight... So if he's willing to go the extra step, person, I'd let him.

My skate guy wants to first epoxy the holes and fill them anyway before re-drilling them, is that a good idea?
