    Heh. Yeah. Perks Having tried them on, I feel that Bauer Vapor and Supreme users looking for a new skate should give these a chance and CL users obviously.

    How close is Nexus to that?

    Had another chance to try on the new Pro glove as well as the Mako. Fingers are quite snug on both gloves, snugger than Vapor, about on par with Supreme. Still can be considered a tapered style of glove with the backrolls and cuff opening up. Incredibly comfortable palms on both. Fast Fingers feature is a plus as well, still good mobility. The thing that I didn't like on the Mako was that the section of the glove between the backhand and where the fingers start was too tight, meaning that as I closed my hand, the glove dug into my knuckles.

    Canada was what I remember seeing on the tag.

    Now what to do with the duds on the shelf right now...?

    Ignoring the noise, that's a great jersey! Despite last night, things are looking bright going forward! So 2 pairs? Or are they supposed to look mismatched?

    But they were all top of the line sticks lol. Warrior's position entering the market for the first time was built around bright, loud, slightly provocative and humorous imagery and marketing. They grabbed the attention of the market and that approach has led to success for them thus far. I think that now, having more or less solidified their position among the bigger players, they are shuffling back in line with naming and imagery, instead promoting their technology and innovation instead. Interesting transformation. Although the numerical nomenclature is standard and traditional and easier to understand, I'm beginning to miss the earlier days lol.

    I've always thought that should been a retail feature regardless.

    A new line (Nexus, Supreme, Vapor) every 6 months, a new lineup within that line (new Vapor, new Supreme) every 18 months.

    The RBZ feels stiffer than rated, I would say 65. But obviously kickpoint is a factor in feel as well.

    Ah I see. I was specifically wondering if you noticed anything like what JR mentioned here (screws vs rivets) : http://www.modsquadhockey.com/forums/index.php/topic/61498-warrior-krown-360-helmet-initial-thoughtsteardown/?hl=krown

    nice pickup, does it have some sort of locking meachanism in the back?
  13. AIREAYE
    Davetronz, you're not the only one having problems with the 20K shin strapping system. Upon trying them in-store, I've experienced the same issues as you have.
  14. AIREAYE
    What really? That was standard procedure at my old store. I thought everyone who wasn't cutting corners did it.
  15. AIREAYE
    LOL I wasn't being sensitive, you're the one who said it I had no idea that it was a racial slur.

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=zipperhead I dunno how to take this from you...

    We should call you Harry Potter or something.

    Thanks for the insight! Having a custom toe box option on a custom boot would be good value-added feature for those looking to go that route. As someone who could be potentially selling your product to customers, I was wondering if you guys will implement some sort of educational campaign as part of your overall marketing campaign (which I assume you will have to some degree) to teach both consumers and retailers about the uniqueness of your product?

    Nazem the Dream?

    Hmm, not knowing much of anything about speed skating, I would tend to agree. They absolutely sound like they know exactly what they're doing and have a plan set up, judging by that release.
  21. AIREAYE
    Wow, you haven't posted here for a while! It seems like even greater customization is available with monocoque. Even the toebox? Everything is integrated together, no longer glued or stitched. This a very ambitious thing they're doing and quite admirable. They're slotting this skate right in amongst the other top ends and with a fully custom boot at around the same price if not slightly more expensive. I see this as a very niche product unless they get a greater presense both in NHL rinks and in stores.

    Maybe lay off any facial expressions until it heals lol None of this or this
  23. AIREAYE
    I hope it wasn't rusty steel.
  24. AIREAYE
    The way the guard is designed though, it HAS to be flexible. If it were stiffer, I would imagine that there would be durability issues since the connection is so narrow. But that's some interesting insight; thanks!
  25. AIREAYE
    Those were way before my time so I'm curious, what is/was so unique about them?
