    Probably better to ask the store.
  2. IPv6Freely
    LOL okay

    To be clear though, it’s not on True to be interacting directly with the customer. So it seems like your expectations may be a bit higher than they should be.

    Tell the coach to suck it?
  5. IPv6Freely
    No, but I’d try it. Looks like a more minimal version of the CCM CL shoulders with whatever that foam was. Which were awesome.

    Dealing with health insurance definitely sucks. Even if your plan covers 90%, it’s still a chunk of change when the bill is $250,000. Thank god my provider permitted a private hospital to be billed at the in-network rate since it was such a specialized procedure, or else it would have been even more painful.

    If you bought custom skates that were made for somebody else, I wouldn’t expect them to feel all that great.

    Very similar in the ability to mold to your foot and just overall comfort level. I’d agree to try to find some makos online if you can but otherwise I know I went from Mako to True and it was a pretty perfect evolution.

    Dude... sorry 😞 That’s some pretty crap news. We’re all rooting for you and hope something breaks your way soon!
  10. IPv6Freely
    The closest thing you’re going to find is True. Since they’re custom fit to your feet and crazy heat moldable they’re going to be your best bet if you want a similar feel.

    Very carefully/slowly and with a lot of scrunching.

    Right now it’s just a Singer 4432. I’m about to buy a JUKI DDL-5550 though.

    Well, this is what happens when you buy a sewing machine. I took the stripes and patch off a Warrior MSH Winterfest pant shell and put them on a Bauer girdle shell. Also just for funsies, here’s a fitted cap I took apart and rebuilt to make it go from a 7-5/8 to a 7-3/8. Im thinking I might start making goalie accessories. Toe ties, suspenders, etc.

    I just got one of those. Haven’t used it on the ice yet because it’s still a bit small for me but man the comfort and protection level is amazing.

    I completely sympathize because I know how frustrating it can be trying multiple brands and models to just continue to skate in pain. Eventually you just say to hell with it and get traced/scanned. Ill never forget, when I was about 3 years into my adult hockey “career” I had my teammates ask if I had taken skating lessons. I told them nope, I just got skates that didn’t hurt. But apparently the difference was noticeable! One piece of advice for you and everyone else buying Trues: you don’t need to tie them anywhere near as tight as you may be used to. When you have that much wrap you dont need to crank the laces to pull the skate around the top of your foot like you would with other skates.

    My old VH (last version prior to True) are still mostly flawless. I would definitely have zero concerns about longevity.

    I knew it was a TH thing, I just said CCM because they were just a repaint of a low tier CCM model if I recall. But either way yeah what you said was definitely a more accurate way of putting it. I do remember them having Christian goalie sticks too. They had a cool diamond weave pattern on the paddle. I never ended up getting one though.

    From 2014

    Good call, I’ll give that a try.
  20. IPv6Freely
    I’ve started having pain over the last month or two. Just below where the big toe meets the foot. Almost like there’s something digging into the top of my foot there. I can’t figure out what it is.
  21. IPv6Freely
    Like what CCM did with Titan a couple years ago?
  22. IPv6Freely
    The only fishbowl I’ve used that didn’t fog was the original avision mask. Even their second version did. I’m curious about this one though now that I’m in a CCM bucket.
  23. IPv6Freely
    Let’s get back on topic.
  24. IPv6Freely
    There’s always the standard clear plastic ones too.
