    It was a good day to embrace the small amount of Russian in me:

    Added yet another stick to my collection of Eaves prostocks. I now have 2 Eaves S19s, 1 Eaves S19 repainted as an RS, 1 Eaves true RS, and now this Widow SE. In regards to the picture of the name, does anyone know why the name was misspelled? I've seen this on other Warrior prostocks for guys who don't normally use Warrior sticks.

    Well after injuring my knee earlier this year and being told I wouldn't be allowed to skate until at least late December, I've got the green light to so some stick and puck on Wednesday!

    My RS prostocks. Top to bottom: Mursak, Eaves, and Mueller. Mueller one is up for sale, but I'm loving the other two. Can't wait for Wednesday to try them. I've been rehabbing my knee and been given the green light to do some stick and puck!

    I searched through for an answer and found a part answer. I understand there will be an ~$30 upcharge on the customizer, which I am going to be more than glad to pay for, just wondering if there is a set base cost for the sticks yet?

    Picked up two new sticks this week: 1. Versteeg prostock EQ50 (SE16 repaint) from PSHG. Normally I don't look too much into looks of a stick, but with blue highlights instead of red, the EQ50 graphics look much much better. 2. Stacey Wahs U+CL (SVL). Has an Ovi-clone curve on it. Really like the way it feels stick handling in my living room.

    I also have one of his EQ50's that he experimented with in TO, and one of his current twigs from his time in Philly and they are all the same pattern I linked above. I compared it next to my friend's P92 and they do have relatively the same blade to them. The Versteeg starts to curve earlier in the heel, and has the noticeable toe kink, but the overall blade shape itself is similar to the P92. I know I'll be picking up a fused one, 95 flex with the Versteeg pattern.

    For those wondering what Versteeg's curve looks like.

    I'm a bass player myself. Current lineup from my favourite down: 1. 1993 Fender Jazz (American). Swapped out the stock pickups for a nice set of Bartolinis. I'm a self-taught player and I taught myself using a borrowed bass. Once I deemed myself worthy of a better instrument I started shopping around. Found that I liked J-Basses. I found this one on kijiji for $650. Went to pick it up and the guy gave it to me for $550. Took it in to my dad's friend who runs a local music shop, cleaned it up, checked all the wiring, everything was perfect. First bass I bought for myself and I still love how versatile it is and it's still my go to bass when I play shows and record. 2. 2009 Sterling by Musicman Stingray Ray34. Haven't touched the pickups, but I did swap the strings for some Rotosound Roundwounds. I play this one whenever I play anything punk or ska related. Wish I could afford a real Stringray but for the money this thing sounds pretty close to that nice real Stingray tone. 3. 1974/75 Gibson Ripper. Originally my dad's but he passed it along to me when he picked up a new Gibson T-Bird. Not my favourite guitar to play but I do like sounds I can get from it when I'm playing some older bands music (Beatles, The Who, etc.). Still prefer my Fender over it in the end, but I do bust it out every now and then.

    Not a bad last couple of days for me. Won a new EQ50 stick, then picked up a brand new SE16 and a pair of brand new TotalOne gloves for $100 total. On top of that, I'm leaving for Mexico this coming wednesday where I just found out I'll have my own room for 6 days. Solid last couple of days leading up to an awesome Mexico trip.

    Just got this in from Pro Stock Hockey Gear today. Victor Oreskovich CCM U+CL.

    Nope I didn't see the socks. I was too busy marveling at how small Kronwall's feet are. I was one of the first people through the doors for the game and I booked to HTA to get those Eaves sticks. They were behind the counter with my name on them for most of the night. I will say if I was a lefty, as much as I despise Hudler, I'd have picked up some of his too.
  14. twistoffate19
    They are actually S19's (I'll try and get a better pic of the taper later). Regarding the flex, it is hard to say for sure. When I got them, they were really short. I put a 12 inch extension to get it to the length I normally use (which is about 1.5" longer than retail). They way they feel after doing that is about a 95-100. The curve is a lot nastier in person. The pictures don't show it as well I'd hoped, but it is a nasty curve. Can't wait to try them.

    Made a trip to the Hockey Town Authentics outlet in the Joe during last night's game. Picked up these beauties. In that last picture, the curve on the far left is a Kovalev curve on my Widow for comparison. I also had to take a vast amount of Goo-Gone to take all the tape residue off the shaft. Apparently Eaves is a fan of rubbing black tape on the shaft to the point where you couldn't see the "S19" at the bottom before I cleaned it up.

    MissConduct, I actually think you and I got our Widows from the same source heh. If so, I saw that Hudler Widow when I picked mine up. That curve in person reminded me of a slightly toned down version of an Ovechkin pro curve (not quite as open/wedged). The curve itself was too deep to be a replica of Hossa's pro curve. Either way, it was a beauty curve and beauty stick.

    New prostock Warrior Widow. I tried to show the Dagger Taper in the second picture. I like the graphics package on it being all blacked out.

    I'm assuming real Hawks gloves. I have a friend who works for Warrior and he picked them up for me. As far as I can tell they were intended for pro-use. They have that lime-green yellow liner, nash palms, and extra padding all inside the gloves. They feel great on my hands, that much is for sure, the only issue I have with them is with the right glove. Right where my wrist bone is, on the inside part, there a small piece of extra padding that doesn't feel right, so I'm going to try and take it out.

    It is red stitching.

    Just picked these up today:

    Just picked this up today. BIG Toe curve, almost reminds me of the Ovechkin pro curve.

    I'm in the same boat that I don't wear a girdle. I used to for Midget House and Bantam Travel but I couldn't get going as quickly, therefore bringing my performance as a ref down. Helmet w/visor, shins, elbow pads, ref pants, ref shirt, thermal pants and shirt. All I've worn since getting rid of my girdle. I've also been told that having black skates helps in your supervisions, but I went from the silver Easton Z-Air's to Vapor XX's over the course of my refereeing and I was never told anything other than, "Make sure your laces are white."
