It wasn’t hijacked.

My experience is the same. Sharpen before every skate. I’m also a goalie who has far more blade damage than any player should, do this interval makes sense in my case.

They still take tracings

Thanks man. It was so sudden that I’m a bit lost right now. Totally in shock and scatterbrained. I guess better this than a long painful decline. First symptoms to letting him go was all less than an hour apart. Vet said about a 20% chance of recovery from THIS incident, and said he could almost guarantee it would happen again and soon. We were lucky to have been there with him to say goodbye. Can’t even imagine what it would have been like to have come home and found him. As for your other vent, I feel your pain. We can’t get anyone to show up. We started our last game with 5 skaters and had 6 to start the second period. We have about 20 on our roster, but maybe 5-6 that actually pay for the season up front. I guess paying per game makes it easy for people to just not show up. Am I the only one that plans their life around my games? “Sorry I cant go, I have hockey that night.”

We just had to euthanize our cat tonight. The hardest thing I’ve done in my entire life. I don’t know how I’m going to make it through this. He was my best friend.

Awesome! Great to hear it!

Not quite as good as the Tacks earlier in the thread, but I think thats primarily because of the edge of the vamp makes it look unpolished. But still nice!

Cool, thanks. I wouldn’t be taking mine far either. Not like I’d be flying with it or something.

What would you be using to pad it?

At some point I really need to learn to skate better. Even if I'm mostly in goalie skates now.

GoPro battery capacity is way too damn small. I got only the first period last night. Brutal.

Maybe, but I’m sure not being in constant pain did more for me than anything else ;)

I didn't know Bauer and CCM did full custom? I'd only ever seen options for sizing and various other customizations.

I remember when I got my Makos (I know this is a VH thread but the same thing applies) I had teammates ask me if I took skating lessons because I was much better all of a sudden. I was like “no, I just have skates that don’t hurt for the first time ever...” Amazing what skates that fit perfectly can do for you. The difference between VH and Mako was almost as much as the difference between Mako and everything else. The moment I can justify new skates I’ll be upgrading my VH with Bauer cowlings to True 2-piece.

You may be able to find a pelican case that will fit the shipping box foam exactly but it will be very expensive. Personally I’d just buy their case if I planned to move the machine around.

The above post was moved out of the ProSharp thread, located here: There was a bit too much promotion of the Sparx in the post, but it also had some good points regarding comparing the two units so we didn't want to remove it completely. So, we either edit the post or we move it. I chose to move it.

I just moved the post that Russ made in this thread into the Sparx thread here: There was a bit too much promotion of the Sparx in the post, but it also had some good points regarding comparing the two units so we didn't want to remove it completely.

Just ordered my dust cover, and two grinding rings I got for free from people using my referral code :) I chose my standard 1/2" radius and also got a 3/8" radius to give that a shot. I've been meaning to try something with a bit more bite for stronger pushes. Funny side note - they never considered that somebody might have more than one referral code at a time, so I had to have them add the second ring to the order manually! LOL

Same, the best was Staples but MLG was a close #2 (and Honda being a distant #3) and there's just nothing like pro ice. It's like glass! Also, am I the only one that pictures mini chocolate cakes every time somebody mentions Joe Louis?

Please keep the thread on topic.

Yea the cost of power and cooling isn’t covered by the amount generated.

Not worth the effort anymore.

You don’t need to do any of those things to buy/sell. That’s only if you want to participate in the block chain. No idea on taxes.

I think you meant to quote @Playmakersedge :)

There is no “gatekeeper”. There is a good video I posted earlier in this thread. I would recommend you watch that.
