  1. I see that the Website has the new SBP stick on it and the gloves with replaceable palms already. One area I was looking at and wil be interested in seeing how the gloves work around the thumbs. Traditional gloves have a tab to keep the players thumb connected to the thumb guard and wonder how that will feel...as it has to be different to be zippered to the glove shell. Any idea when the Tapered shafts should be on the street? Very excited to see tapered shafts in 75 flex... Somehow I am gonna have to get my bantam aged player to give the true sticks a go. He has been very loyal to warrior, but he is getting to a point where he is too big for intermediate sizes, but could still benefit from some flex...any chance one can custom order a shaft at say 65 flex?
  2. Awesome to see the new catalog. True has been on my radar, but I've run into issues when the urge was to buy a True Product (typically have not been able to source the item I wanted (sold out) or unavailable at the local store when visiting. My biggest concern with True was that they may have decided to fold up the store as the product that is being updated was not that old (or maybe time is just flying by with me). I like the glove palm zippered option. I think it allows for more customization for a player without True having to have a company overstock various models or to have custom gloves made. They also have the Ottawa colorway AND a 2nd glove model (non 4-roll). Also they will have the A6.0 shaft availalbe in a tapered model in 75 flex. I was going to go after the current model, but most of the blades I have purchased lately are tapered...so this is all good for me to see. Thank you for posting the catalog!
  3. I saw this on ESPN yesterday and thought of posting it. I have alwys understood the issue with Fit, since my sons 1st helmet gave him issues and I've watched many other kids have the fit issue as well. I have never liked the EPP foam as a comfortable liner, BUT it does show someone to get a new helmet if they take a hit and the foam liner breaks from the impact. The user will know they need to be checked out and they need a new helmet (oh and its light) Before this study the NEWer CCM Resistance 300 and the Warrior have been at the top of the list for any helmet purchases...We'll see...I am awaiting the Warrior catalog release to see what they have next...But this helps with the newer CCM models Oh I also ment tto include...What does this mean...More expensive helmets are on their way. No one is going to design a newer hlmet and not capitalize on the market, reguardless of the cost of manufacturing the product.
