  1. Finger length is relatively the same, I will toss on my 4-rolls tonight and report back. The CA5 at the price point cant be beat.
  2. Of course! He will love them. If you want any other 3rd party feedback on the products just ask!
  3. Just some glove feedback(ca9): they are very light weight and break in very quickly. The palms have shown good durability and they dry pretty fast as well. Protection is more than adequate. They feel awesome.
  4. Depending on how you like your pant to fit, M-L would be sufficient with M being the ideal choice unless you like a baggy leg.
  5. The CA5 glove is one of the most comfortable I've had on my hands. Not as much internal padding as the CA9, which I actually prefer, super light, and extremely good wrist movement. Once I get my pair, I will be ditching my custom 4-rolls for them.
  6. I have a EE foot, with a wider forefoot, and baking the skates formed them like a gloves to my feet. The heat molding ability really is tremendous. Baked CA9's are the most comfortable skate I've ever had on my foot.
  7. no, the cuff is shorter. ill take some pics on tonight at the rink
  8. Just got these in from PureHockey. Does anyone know a good place either in Michigan, or outside I can ship to, for customization(name/number/logo)?
  9. My rink just got 2 sets of skates back from them(SH Location) and they looked awful..
  10. Yes, stock. I don't see a need to change anything on them at all. I could imagine the Vanguar throwing them off a little with how strong the pitch is and the way the skates are designed. I think leaving the stock mag chassis and 80's on...you would have adapted very quickly to it. Skating, turning and stoping all feel much more fluid compared to the tour boot/hum'mer set up. I concur regarding the boot. Baked...they're unreal. Seriously I could leave them on for 8 hours every day. I've got another 8 games in a Christmas tourney next week..can't wait.
  11. Yes, 10 minutes with a 30 minute fit(had fun flirting with the puck bunnies). They are extremely comfortable. I had a training skate last night with skate weights, speed chutes, evasion bands and other stuff...and the pop I get coming out of turns and stops is very noticeable.
  12. First AIHL event done and over with. Completely honest...the CA9's are the best skates I've had on my feet.
  13. I grabbed a pair of Alkali Hockey CA9 Skates this week and just skated in them last night for the first time. Here are my initial thoughts: -Extremely comfortable. The ankle padding feels awesome and provides a great heel lock(something I have been hard pressed to find). The boot itself is very comfortable especially after baking them. The toe cap feels great and provides enough space for my wide feet. The tongue is one of my favorite features and adds a great level of comfort as well. -Fast. Very fast. The aggressive set up with the strong forward pitch and all 80mm wheels produces an extremely explosive feel to the skate. I can not really use words to describe it..but it feels good. -Tighter turning radius. I feel high off the ground on the CA9's and have noticed a far superior turning radius with then on. Last night I felt a ton more agile and responsive than normal. Overall the skate looks impressive as hell, and feels even better. I've got 7 games over the weekend to break these bad boys in and I can't wait.
  14. I switched from Tour's for 8 years to the CA9's and while it is different, its far better. I felt unreal last night and very comfortable. Hello Sir! Gorney has some stock out at Total right now. Hopefully a couple other of our watering holes will have them shortly. Feel free to text me with any questions on them so far(same number from Drev if you still have it).
  15. Skates arrived today, just baked them. I've got 8 games between now and Monday. They feel amazing and are really impressive in person. The forward pitch and wheel base provides for a very tight turning radius, faster acceleration and pretty good top end speed. I'll report back more as I skate in them this weekend...but this is my initial impression. Also, the CA7 pants fit great and are super light, and the backpag bag is unreal. The vent ports are awesome, and it seems extremely durable.
  16. It was Jay. I had a huge debate on FB and someone on your FB account told me to call you guys and talk to Cook. Emailing you now.
  17. MIHA tourney? Have fun playing the Phoenix ;). Nick Smolinski will be wearing the CA9's. Got them yesterday and didnt take them off for 8+ hours. I'm still on the fence. Justin I called you guys and left a VM a couple days ago..havent heard anything back yet though.
  18. I skated on Necto, you guys beat us 5-4 in the ship. The EX-1 boot is awful, breaks down extremely quickly. Every other person I have talked to that has them, including a 14 year old that weighs 110lbs, has had issues with the boot breaking down very quickly. I have creases everywhere, and it feels like I have noodles wrapped around my feet. Alkali's skates seem to be far better constructed.
  19. Damn. I'll let my team know. We are going to be grabbing the CA5 pants from you guys next week. I'm literally sitting on IW with the CA9's in my cart...just contemplating. I've been here for over an hour doing this. Not sure why...but I am so worried about the boot holding up after this Tour EX-1 debacle..
  20. I skated in Bronze? Strong Michigan presence here. Not seeing the gloves up anywhere...are you guys still working on gettin those out?
