Only somewhat?

Agreed, definitely the best series so far IMO

I’ve never seen a good comparison of the various tongues. Size 8-8.5

Why did you waste your time doing that? We already said that was the case.

Cool, thanks!

Looking for True tongues. If I wanted just modded tongues, I could do that myself. Do I just email their support/customer service address?

Does anyone know how to get replacement tongues? Ideally working with an online shop.

Yeah the MLB is doomed. They were so busy arguing about money that they didn’t bother coming up with an actual plan. Doesn’t help that nobody is following protocol and the players aren’t even limited to the hotel and ballpark. Even the umpires were wearing their masks as neck warmers.

Agreed, they’ve done a fantastic job.

Humiliating loss. Team brought absolutely nothing. Tavares and Marner completely invisible. I give up on Freddy. I’ve been saying for two years that anyone who skates down the right wing side and fires a wrist shot is almost guaranteed a goal. Almost every OT loss this season was on a goal just like that. He just can’t get it done. I revise my prediction: Columbus in 4.

Weird. You said he didn’t get a concussion. So what’s the problem? Also since no helmet is concussion proof, it’s a bit of an odd measure.

🧐

Never heard of it

The score looks like it’s going to end a lot closer than the game actually was. Chicago definitely let up after the 6th goal.

Yep agreed

Yeah it kind of makes sense as a full package. Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. As long as the grinding rings stay the same, I'm happy. Even better if they'd be available at retail.

Not really "saran wrap", I'm not sure where that idea came from. Maybe just because the stretch wrap kind of resembles saran wrap I guess. But yeah, that's generally done for True custom skates. I assume you could also do it for the stock skates as well but you may see less benefit since the boot wasn't made for your foot anyway. I'm sure anywhere that has sold True customs would know the procedure anyway and should be able to do it for you upon request. It can't hurt.

I couldn't even get them on my feet until they were baked. Same for Mako. Sure. That was a requirement for Mako fittings. I would have to assume True retails would be the same case.

I guess I have some good news. I played in a pickup on Sunday, as I mentioned here: The guy told me said it was a D5 skate (the division I was previously playing in). It very much was not. Though, being a pickup it also wasn't as difficult as D4 (which I have subbed in a couple times when I got to the rink early for my game and their goalie got hurt or didn't show up and got LIT UP). It was basically D4/D5 mix of players playing at a level somewhere in-between. Anyway, that to me actually made it fun. The other pickup I've been playing in for years has definitely declined in skill level for the most part, which makes the 2-3 really good players basically just annoying because it's non-stop breakaways. This was way more fun than that. My legs were jello pretty quickly, and semblance of flexibility I had is completely gone, and my timing and angles are all totally hosed. But I don't care. It was fun because it was a challenge. I let the guy know afterwards that it was really fun and that it makes me much less disappointed not being on a league team knowing I could do pickups at this level. He asked me if I wanted to return and I happily agreed. So, looks like I now have a weekly ice time once again. Its at noon which is good and bad - good because its not 10PM, but bad because it basically kills my day. But I'm not about to complain, I'm just happy to be doing something again.

Well, I ended up playing in a pickup last Sunday. I had a tournament Aug 8-9 (I found out afterwards has been pushed to October) and figured I'd better get some reps in. I don't feel entirely comfortable playing in the tournament so I'm glad it's been postponed, and really wasn't comfortable playing in a pickup either. But, the guy who invited me said it's an invite-only skate and people are taking it seriously so I agreed. As it turns out, they weren't so serious. Maybe 3 people had masks on in the dressing room (myself included). That said, it seemed... normal. Maybe that's not a good thing as I ended up not wearing a mask on the ice like I had planned. All that said, it was really nice to get back out there even if my legs were absolute jello less than half way in.

I just sent in my donation, and also pinned this post. Good luck @hellaavangard we're all rooting for you to beat this. Fuck cancer!

I wonder if it will be like the Mako where you have no idea how it's actually going to feel unless you have it baked.

Right on! I've had no issues with the original and can't imagine any new features would push an upgrade for me, but still very interested to see what they've come up with.

Who knows. I’ll stay out of this topic, I don’t care enough.

Yeah interesting he’d combine a traditional pad with a modern setup like that.
