  1. Custom NXGs (Link to my photo sharing flickr page) Finally got them done. Only had one issue with the final product that was discussed in an earlier thread. After 3 skates I'm very pleased and should've done this sooner. Got them done at a local shop (chain retailer in Michigan) and had no real complaints as far as the guy who did the fitting. Ideally I would've went with one of the experts here but I couldn't fly out just for a skate fitting. Tough sell to the wife let alone buying $950 skates. X60 Tongue LS3 Steel
  2. Just picked these up. 9k Shoulder pads and Gaborik Prostock. shoulPads from LHS and stick from HM. Probably overkill padding wise for adult league but i couldn't pass them up. My Bauer One .9's in the background there. The Gaborik is really tall and has a very long blade. It'll be interesting to see how it plays. http://www.flickr.co...391bb9ffa2d589d
  3. I have some old 652 Super Tacks in my basement. Just tried them on and it feels like I'm wearing a sock compared to a ski boot with my one .9's. I definitely prefer the stiffer modern boot.
  4. Are you going to do a review of it soon or do you have to wait until closer to release date? I'm eager to see how it compares to the TO to see if I should wait and get a Nexus. Thx
  5. My fiance doesn't know the difference if i get new gear as long as it's not aggrigated into a massive pile showing multiple sticks, skates, gloves etc. For instance I had my new skates out (bauer one ,9) and she had no idea they weren't my bauer x60's i had before that.
  6. I think I need the arches altered for my flat feet and a correct sizing. Left foot bigger than right. The thing is my ankles are so boney/skinny finding a good fit is tough. Evidently, my feet are not ad narrow as I thought per my last skate fit. General advice on the process would be great. Thx again
  7. I bought a pair of one .9's and they fit ok, better than my last skates. My feet are not as 'narrow' as i thought but the fit isn't as nice as i like for spending $650. So i'm throwing in the towel and getting customs. I'm meeting with a Bauer rep next Saturday for a custom fitting. Any words of advice or things to pay attention to during the fitting process? I'm not sure how good the rep is with this process so any 'must pay attention' to things would be great to know. Thanks!
  8. I found a good referral for skate fitting in the Detroit area but the guy said the upcharge is around $200 and takes three months. I'm about 6'1'' 175 lbs Narrowish and low arch feet - Size 8.5 - i'll probably end up backing out the heel on my left skate since my left foot is slightly bigger Super skinny ankles / ankle joint area I play twice a week max What skates would fit a profile like mine or do i just have to pony up and get custom? Any pointers are welcomed and much appreciated.
  9. Read the whole thread, good stuff! Does anyone know of a good custom skate fitter in Michigan? Telling the wife i'm going to fly to a different state to get custom skates would be a really hard sell. She thinks $300 skates are too much money
