I think trues are able to fit ppl with foot shapes that arent "avg" to a degree. The moldability allows for a bit of flexibility in fit but obviously some people will just need custom boots. I fit into a supreme pretty well but there are some hot spots. Even with my one100 that I wore for 7-8 years, I had no pain skating, but when walking I had pinching above my ankle area. With my as1 it was super painful all over to break in. Once broken in they were ok but protection was non existent. I took light passes off the ankle that hurt like hell. I took a bomb from the pt off my trues and didn't miss a shift and I don't have the extra shot blockers. Vapor 2.9 I had to return. Overall fit felt ok but produced quite painful lacebite on the top of my forefoot from slight volume issues. Trues are the only skates I didn't have any pain or break in period out of box. Yes mine are customs but I'm sure I would fit fine into retails. You are right though. The as3 and the second from the top jetspeeds are also top or the line skates. They're essentially the previous years top skate. So if you look at it that way they're technically newer than trues which haven't changed tech wise except when they went to a diff carbon weave about 1.5 years ago. From my experience in terms of wrap and moldability. It's True (by a landslide), then CCM, and far down in third is Bauer. CCM gets soft really fast but I'm not sure if the materials are meant to get that soft since they recommend only to be baker for I think 3 mins. If done longer it does get pretty soft but since they recommend 3 mins, I'm sure it can't be good for the materials.

The time has come!!!! Just got invited to a small private skate on Friday and I'm going. Only 10 guys. Invite only for guys who take the pandemic seriously and have been distancing and wearing masks. No locker rooms. No scrimmage. Just skill drills and shooting. No locker room either. This feels safe and I am going to take the dive and play!!! Very psyched. It will also be the first time I am on the ice since my stents were put in so it'll be great to see how I feel on the ice now.

So is Sher-Wood making a comeback with the NHL? I know they didn't have the contract/rights whatever to have their logo displayed on their gear if worn in the NHL but I've seen a handful of guys using the Rekker in social media posts over the past few weeks, including Kaapo Kaako and Jacob Trouba (who was even wearing their gloves). 7th image has a good shot of Trouba: https://www.instagram.com/p/CCofPtkAaki/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

First off, thank God you are ok. I didn't have a heart attack but I had three stents put in on March 2nd so I kinda dodged that bullet. I never felt symptoms but I had 3 90% blocked arteries. I was supposed to take about a month off and then Covid hit so I haven't been on the ice. Even though I am on some pretty heavy duty thinner the doc said I could play as long as I am careful. I'm down over 20lbs and walk and ride and roller blade every day so I can't wait to see how I feel on the ice!!!!! I dont think there is any reason you cannot play. To be honest once you get your get your diet and weight in line you'll be as good as new and hockey will help you. Just got news today that I am invited to a very small and safe skate on Friday so I will let you know how it goes. If you want to talk diet, recovery, etc send me a PM.

Hey Steve, Have you guys ever considered a discount for bulk grinding rings purchases? For example, you offer the (3) ring starter pack for a discount. I’d like to stock up on 1/2” and 5/8” wheels for the season and it would be nice to see a price break at some point. If I weren’t all set on 1/2” Fire wheels, I would just buy starter packs. Thanks.

I feel like Ultra Tacks is the modern one95. Everyone loved it, and then the company moved on to other fancier tech, but so many people would be happy just to have access to that slightly older stick.
