  1. How are they different? Different grits like sandpaper? Complete noob here, obviously.
  2. 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)?
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. What, you wouldnt wear this?
  6. Helmet: Bauer Re-Akt (Navy) Shoulders: CCM U+ CrazyLight LE Elbows: Warrior Projekt (2010 Model) Gloves: Bauer Supreme One60 (Black/white/red) Pants: Bauer Supreme One60 (Black) Shins: Bauer Supreme One60 Skates: Reebok 8K Sticks: Reebok Ai.5, 75 flex, P38
  7. Not hockey equipment, but I've finally found a Leafs hat I actually like (man, whats up with hats now? They're all AWFUL)
  8. Got it, that's all I was wondering :) Maybe I'll buy one for my birthday in April :)
  9. 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?
  10. 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/
  11. ^ My wife would have me dead.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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 :)
  15. Haha wow, that's awful! :)
  16. Still think the Nexus is the best looking skate on the market. Love that liner, too!
  17. 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.
  18. Looks like they're retail on the One80! I know what my next purchase will be :) I need black pants for my new team, so might as well get these :) Sorry to de-rail/be off-topic.
  19. As for pro stock gear - I get it, if its better, like shoeshine boy mentioned, and if I'm going to use them. What I don't get is having a massive collection like what Too Old posted (no offense intended!). Though I realize some people like to collect for the sake of collecting, it's not a mindset I can identify with. To me, that's just more stuff to store away in boxes that I'll never touch. Totally different if signed, etc, though. To each his own :) On an unrelated note - are those black/white/red pants stock "special edition" totalone's? I've seen them in other colors before.
  20. They pop up on ebay on occasion, but they're often like $250-300. No way in hell. Love those pants, though. Too bad I'm not on a team with those colours anymore :( Here's my new addition:
  21. Nah, I just bought them. It's a beer league team. For that matter, I bought the jersey and socks myself too :P
  22. Got my gear for my new team. Ottawa jersey, NJD socks (they said they don't like the curved lines on the OTT socks - can't say I blame em), and red/white/black Bauer One60 gloves. I also bought a black Eagle pant shell, but it's MASSIVE. Same size as the pants. So... I dunno. Will exchange em I guess. Also picked this up a few days ago, as discussed here . RBK Ai.5, 75 flex, Datsyuk pattern, grip.
  23. Proud to say I haven't shopped at a Wal-Mart in 2.5 years :) Oh, and:
  24. If only it wasn't orange. I'm surprised, being Mako, that it wasn't a whole lot of white instead.
