$40-$50 to profile is crazy, I only Charge $20. To profile. Hockey is expensive enough…! but yes the Bauer Power profile is a Quad. But depends on the length of the runner. It could be a Quad XS, 0, 1, Quad 2. I’ve scanned and measured the stock power profile and they match up very good out of the box. But another set of steel would need to be profiled to match. And personally I re-profile ever 10-15 sharpenings. I’m picky and I want my two sets of steel to always be the same. (Profile/pitch/steel height)

Blades have always come with some sort of “profile” on them. Whether or not they matched from the factory, or players did anything to maintain or update that profile is dependent on that player. On this site you have a bunch of nerds who overthink everything and are insistent on all the latest technology an trying new stuff. On the other hand, you have people skating on skates from 1997 with steel you can barely see, and they are still good players. Lots of people, myself included, would advocate that it’s worth profiling your steel and spending the time and money to maintain it. But, if you’ve never thought about it and you don’t feel like you’re missing anything, maybe that time and money is better spent elsewhere. That’s a total non-answer, haha, but I do think we tend to overcomplicate things sometimes.

Reminds me of the Easton CXN holders,do you know if they will be available in black?

Uni team was looking to make an order of gloves for the year but too many people were on the fence for model so I had to bite the bullet and get a 1 of 1 as a demo pair. Safe to say I've now got people complaining about the wait time for a second run. e: realize there is a separate custom glove gallery... should this be posted there?
