Millionth post on MSH!
Over the past few months, we had been watching the post count to determine when the millionth post would be posted on MSH. After running queries against the server (we really don't delete posts; we will hide from view) and so we wanted to make sure that the post we would find would be the one that actually changed the post count to 1,000,000. That post was this one: https://modsquadhockey.com/forums/topic/72472-girdle-shell-alterations/?do=findComment&comment=1125215 What's even bet

Valor Axiom Hockey Helmet (1st 5 star Virginia Tech rated helmet)
https://valorhockey.com/ Has anyone seen these yet? The pods look like tech we saw a while ago and yet it hit the 5 star rating. I know the thoughts on the V-Tech rating system but it is interesting that a new company managed to get the high score.
To those who have DIY D3O on their equipment...
I can't seem to find the threads anymore, but I'm looking for help/guidance for those who have added D3O to their existing pads. While I attempted to purchase a sheet of material, the cost and shipping were pretty absurd. Thankfully I found some shot blockers that I took apart and figured I could easily cut them up as needed. My plan was to make donuts to put on the knees of my shin pads for some additional protection, but maybe it's better just to throw a slab in the center of the kneecap? To t
Mounting MarsBlades to HyperLite Boot
Hey guys I used to post on here years ago but can't remember my old login info so I just made a new account I have a pair of HyperLite ice skates and I want to do a MarsBlade O1 setup with the same HyperLite boot. I was going to get a pair of used HyperLites on SidelineSwap, remove the ice holders and have a shop mount the O1 frame on it I was just wondering if there might be any problems because the HyperLites have that yellow flex material on the bottom half of the boot and it looks
Bladetech Initial Thoughts
I had met the Bladetech team at the PHATS/SPHEM show in Orlando a couple of years ago. At the time, they had been talking to a couple of equipment managers so we exchanged quick pleasantries and business cards. Neither one of us followed up, until a few weeks ago when Jeff reached out to me. We talked over the phone and he decided to send me down a couple of sets to test: Bladetech has a patent on their "flexible" blades. The front third of the steel has a different shape than sto
FT6 Pro gear drop!
Stay tuned for full reviews and video content. FYI, just from unpacking everything and tinkering with it in the house, I am impressed. They did an excellent job implementing the Aer-Tec suspension system, even though it was something we have seen similar previously in other equipment.

Skate Profile for 10 year old -Tydan Powercut or Max 981
Hey guys, My ten year old has been skating on a 9/10 and I am looking to maybe put him in an advanced profile. I'm really stuck between the tydan powercut, max edge 981 or any prosharp multiple radius. Hes still a very North- South skater with a good stride that tends to get choppy as the profile wears down.....any insight would be appreciated!
Has there been a drop-off in glove quality across the board?
Bought a pair of warrior alpha pro gloves about a year ago. I'm pretty displeased with the purchase. While they are extremely lightweight and comfortable, everything else is lacking. The glove is flexible and soft, especially in the thumb, which has led to two injuries. Palm is already completely ripped up, exterior polyester material is starting to tear, and slash protection is poor. The pair I had before this were vapor XXXX. Shoulda just repalmed em. Now I don't know if I should buy pro stock
CCM Pro Stock ID help
Can anyone decipher this code for me? MHSRTSVSP BOWMAN NICK(T6R) S15407-001 it has the E profile 85 flex. I bought it as a Trigger 6 Pro - anyone know if it is? thanks!
Replace Easton synergy skates
Been out of the game for years, so long Easton is no longer around. Anyway broke my Easton synergy 900 skates and was wondering what is a replacement for something like that skate these days? Thanks in advance!
Bauer’s Factory Profile
I read the Bauer’s factory profile is set at what I am assuming is a Quad Zero due to the radio (6ft-9ft-11ft-13ft) out of the box. Pro Sharp lists this as a size 7-8 skate. Does this mean that if one has a junior size 1-2, the Bauer factory profile would be a Quad 3XS (4ft-5ft-7ft-10ft)? I have new Step Steel Blacksteel and want to possibly profile them with a Quad 3XS for my squirt. I’d like him to skate in the profile prior and if the Bauer factory profile matches Pro Sharp’s Quad profiling,
Quad II - Peter Pin
Profile #3 - Quad II (7-10-13-16) on CCM Ribcore Titanium 9 1/2 size Steel - stock XS1 blade 280mm Hollow - 11/16'' About Me - I started playing/skating when I was 5 then played at good level until 13 in novice/minor leagues. Then stopped and played only maybe 8-10 times/winter at local public outdoor hockey rink just for fun until mid 30s.Then restarted in beer league at 35. Now in my late 30s. I'm a forward. I'd say a good skater and a tad faster then average skaters. Almos

Bauer Re-Akt 200
I've been wearing this helmet for the past year and have found it to be very comfortable once adjusted.i'm getting older and I wanted something that offered protection. I just happened to be run into by a player on another team who is a good 75lbs larger then me. Needless to say we both went down and I hit the back of my head pretty hard. I basically ended up with a sore neck; never felt anything to the back of my head, never lost consciousness or headache, virtually no signs of concussion. I fe
Bauer Re-Akt 200
Hey, I recognize that this post was 4.5 yrs ago, but I am in the same situation you were in then. Got a ReAkt 200 large online, like the helmet, but am near the bottom of the adjustment range and have the same reservations you did: moves a bit too much and bit too much room on the sides. I'm tempted by your experience to try a medium as my head is a touch more oval than round, but don't want to get on a 'no order' list by getting and sending back yet more stuff (this has been a frustrati
Bauer 2X Pro
The month of January was a particularly busy month on the ice. I'm assistant coaching our 14U blue (house) team, joint coaching our 14U white (house select) team, occasionally working with another local travel 12U team, and getting calls to skate in pickup slots when numbers are low (basically on-call because I live across the street from the rink - it's as close to a heaven on earth situation). It's been about a 4 day a week ice time month with my 2X Pros. So far, lots of positive things t
Rezztek
I've been using Rezztek for about a month now. That includes 8ish hours of beer league/private scrimmage time, and 5ish hours of 3v3 outdoor hockey. I'll upload the pictures - some obvious scuffing, fraying, and battle scars, but the feel is the same, and I'm enjoying it. I'll probably remove what's there and replace it with new strips very soon. I went from full heel-to-around-the-toe TJ + the dankest wax I could find to this, and it was an adjustment of about 2-3 shifts + warmups.
Mr.Zogs Sex Wax Hockey Wax
Funny... I wax my stick with Zoggs Sex Wax warm water/Tropical surf board wax. I imagine that it's the same stuff! LOL. Didn't realize that they market stuff to the hockey crowd now.
Bauer 2X Pro
I handed off my Bauer 1X skates to my youngest son (yes, my former "little guy" many of you might remember at Summer Jam skates is now 13, 5' 10", and wearing a 9D skate...miracle grow must be in the food supply), so it was time to look at a suitable alternative. I went back and forth looking and had some conversations with JR debating at a Hyperlite custom job...but that $1300 price tag was a tough pill to swallow right now. As luck would have it, I was able to find a pair of new 2X pros in a 9
