Yea, drove up to HockeyMonkey yesterday :)
-
I'm currently in the new bauer base layer stuff. The "Elite" model, specifically. EASILY the best jockshort ive ever worn. No straps around the buttcheeks but it doesnt need them because it shapes perfectly. Cup pocket on the inside, too. Maybe I'll try the long legged version (since i normally wear socks almost to my knees anyway). Also been considering the long sleeve shirt. Seems counter-intuitive, but if its moisture wicking, i almost think the long sleeve would actually be cooler.

Drove up to HockeyMonkey today. As if I wasn't already sold on these, I realize after I put them on that they have adjustable straps. You can move them to where you want them: My only complaint - the material used on the inside is REALLY rough on the skin. Feels like a damn plastic brillo pad. I'm sure it'll soften over time, though. Oh, and also grabbed a stick bag for Winterfest.

They don't have them in stock, apparently. Their shipping is free overnight anyway, so if they had them they would have just done that. I haven't been up to HM or HG in a while, maybe I'll just drive up tomorrow. It's only about an hour away. Since I can't guarantee how long they will take to send me my shin pads. Sometimes HM is very fast, sometimes its a week. HG is brutally slow ever since they stopped shipping out of socal. Not to mention it wont be free shipping anymore. I've been working from home for a while, and really miss driving my car. :)

IceWarehouse screwed up. So now I have to order from HockeyMonkey and just hope my new pads get here before the weekend. I also now have to pay shipping since HM isn't free shipping. *grumble*

Those are amazing. I wish I liked that style glove so I could get a custom set. Oh well :)
-
those are hilarious.
-
How are they different? Different grits like sandpaper? Complete noob here, obviously.
-
Looking at the X-01. Can the machine stay in the carrying case while in use, or is the case only for storage/transport? Also, what is the difference between the various colored wheels (orange, ruby, pink)?
-
Interesting. I actually have to push the re-akt cage on the sides to get them into the J-clips. Though I'm also using a re-akt helmet too, so maybe that's why.
-
All the stitching is a lot less noticeable in person. I just like that its plain and simple with a nice raised logo on the front. It's fitted, but with a little bit of stretch and extremely comfortable. Fairly low crown, too. Its a Zephyr.
-
What, you wouldnt wear this?

Not hockey equipment, but I've finally found a Leafs hat I actually like (man, whats up with hats now? They're all AWFUL)
-
Got it, that's all I was wondering :) Maybe I'll buy one for my birthday in April :)
-
Definitely not going to read 101 pages here, but I just read the last 5 or so. This x0-1 machine is really tempting. I just watched the video on Vimeo: Honestly, it looks like something that could be picked up pretty quickly. One quick question though... what do you do if you need to crossgrind for whatever reason?
-
On that note, I'm happy they're gone. They made some horrible, HORRIBLE "food". I'm no health nut, but even I wouldn't eat that crap. I still hate unions, though. Safety and stuff, sure. But "we want a raise" striking drives me absolutely friggin bananas. Especially when the faculty does it only weeks before you're set to graduate... *cough* ontario colleges *cough* On another note... http://www.cbc.ca/news/yourcommunity/2012/05/is-canadas-new-20-bill-too-pornographic.html Seriously? ... SERIOUSLY?!?? GFY. Here's a good thread on the subject: http://www.dayonepatch.com/index.php?/topic/53481-new-20-bill-contains-911-images-and-naked-women/

I really hate unions sometimes.

^ My wife would have me dead.

Nothing special, but... New pants for my new team (that wears Ottawa Red). Pro tip: I discovered a few weeks ago that the Youth XL suspenders have a lot less stretch to them, and are almost as long as adult suspenders. The adult ones I'd been wearing, I had the buckles up past my shoulders (almost on to my back) to get them short enough. These are MUCH better! The only thing left to replace is my helmet. I wear a Re-Akt, so I'm not sure I'm willing to drop the cash for a new one just yet.

http://www.icewarehouse.com/descpage.html?pcode=RSRT I use cloth tape to make the butt end and the ribs, and then use a single layer. It's super thin, super grippy, and sticks to itself.
-
Also avoiding tape and using tacki-mac or stretch tape instead (the latter being my new fave!). But there are a ton of other threads about this already :)
-
Haha wow, that's awful! :)
-
Still think the Nexus is the best looking skate on the market. Love that liner, too!
-
I'm in navy One60s now, and love them. New team is black and red so might as well upgrade to the special one80. Hoping the tailbone protection is a bit better. Anytime I'd climb over the boards and slide off the top (instead of clearing it in one jump), the tailbone pad would come up. Not sure if the One80s tailbone protection is plastic or not.
