Well not a direct competitor, but Sparx is giving people less reason to continue going to a pro shop to have a 16 year old kid butcher their skates on their big expensive Blackstone ;)
-
I can't see them licensing their patent to a competitor. I mean, obviously it would never happen, I'm aware we're talking hypotheticals of course.

Sparx Skate Sharpener - At home sharpener
IPv6Freely replied to tamtamg's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Just so we're clear, @ZamboniFever is not a salesman. He's the founder/owner and is an engineer. -
FBV is a patent held by Blackstone. The FIRE ring would be much closer to the non-patented BFD used by Blademaster and others. This diagram should explain it well enough:

Hopefully you are in contact with them already for a resolution. -
That's definitely better than screen print, but I'd also be disappointed to not get embroidery.
-
Is that screen print, or sublimation?

Awesome! We’ve done similar (we did HCG at one point that worked really well), and while it’s certainly not sustainable on its own without a diet/exercise/general lifestyle change, it’s one hell of a kickstart. Im personally at the heaviest I’ve ever been in my life, 252lbs. Just got back from the doctor who did a ton of blood work, EKG, etc. Time for a kickstart for me as well, and the lead in to a dietary change and more activity. Hell, we have a damn home gym and don’t touch it. But I’m at a point where it’s no longer just laziness; it’s become annoying because I have no shirts that fit me anymore.

Wow that’s not a very glowing review! Hopefully Sparx can address your issues. Any photos of the machine? It must be significantly different from the consumer model to have this many issues. -
What/when to eat/drink before a game for most energy?
IPv6Freely replied to jlird808's topic in General Hockey Discussions
I’m good as long as I’ve had enough time for the food to be digested. Immediately after eating is never good. A couple Advil so my back doesn’t hurt and water. I need to drink more water during the day (regardless of game day or not) and during a game I really should have two bottles. I don’t drink nearly enough. -
Time to go lose in the playoffs for the first time in 5 seasons. I figured people might actually show up for playoff games… NOPE!

iPhone X. Holy crap this thing is awesome.

I put $210 into BTC over the course of the last few months. Now worth $485. That’s some investment!

Price drops on the softgoods :)

That sucks. Time for them to find a new supplier. I've had orders take as little as 4 weeks and as long as 12 depending on time of year but they've always been pretty accurate on the timeline up front.

Recovery after broken ankle
IPv6Freely replied to ThePurpleCobra's topic in General Hockey Discussions
Trying to remember my timeline... If I recall, after the cast came off I had about 3 months before I was walking without a boot or brace. Iced it just about daily during that time. Also was icing it for a couple months after that when it would swell. I'd say I was seeing swelling for 5-6 months after the break, sometimes worse than others. One thing I would suggest is this thing: https://www.shockdoctor.com/ice-recovery-ankle-compression-wrap It was absolutely amazing for icing the foot/ankle area and with where the ice packs actually are (two on the sides and one on the "tongue"), it would be perfect for achilles injuries. -

IPv6Freely replied to dsjunior1388's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Are you talking about non-VH custom skates? Maybe I'm a minority on this, but my VH were the most comfortable skate I'd ever worn right out of the.. well, oven. -
Huh. That sounds likely to be the first Bauer skate that would have actually fit me.

Explain v-cuts?

Are those basically the equivalent of ordering goalie skate boots with a tendon guard?
