  1. Need help! 

    I recently had new LS2 holders installed here in Colorado. After I picked them up and "thought" I had properly inspected my new LS2 holders at the pro shop. I noticed after my first skate that both sets are bent in the middle in the exactly the same way on both pairs (see pictures)

    I was hoping to be able a fix it my self, as I live in rural Colorado a few hours from the pro shop in Denver. 

    My thoughts were to either (1) remove the steel and let the holders return back to the original form (maybe) or (2) remove the steel and apply my heat gun to them for a few minutes to let them expand back to shape and allow for an easy install of the steel.  

    Note: the pro shop stated that it was difficult to install the steel on a new pair of holders (as I have experienced myself in the past) and they used a rubber mallet to get them in. 

    Any advice would be appreciated.

  2. Just received my Kovalev pro and I am very pleased.  Does Base hockey offer a variable flex shaft (simular to CCM Jet Speed or Nexus)? 

    +1 Barkov Pro

    + 1 Jagr Pro

    Nikita Kucherov pro would be a suggestion too, unless is to close to a P28. I do hear a lot of pros using the Mike Fisher pro (similar to a P28)

    Lastly, Thank you Base for creating the BC14 (Kane Pro) in a 5.5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. The only retail blade that comes to mid would be the Bauer P14 but with a larger curve and a much taller blade. Other wise there is no other retail blade that really compares to a Jagr pro stock. Its a 6 lie and blade has a medium length, not long at all. The ovi curve is kinda close if you square the toe and shorting it a little bit too. Glad that Combat has come out with a Jagr retail, that is supposedly the same curve as his pro stock. Whats the nice part of it is when you use it the shot comes of the blade quickly due to a medium length blade, but with the open face, large curve and square toe allows for shots to come of the blade hard and accurate.


  4. I'm curious too if there is any changes. I have a few of his pro-stocks at home and he has basically two curves, one legal and another illegal.

    When I talked to the Combat rep, he said he was using the TC (sakic) pattern and shaving the toe square. However I know the one he uses now have a far greater curve. But the bottom heel of the blade of his current game used stick is more rounded than in years past, which would leave the possibility of a TC (sakic) like blade as the basses then having the toe shaved and squared and then adding more curve.


  5. Surprisingly, not as soft as I would have thought. Seems pretty stock, and all leather makes them stiff.

    Thats such a surprise. How is the wrist movement on those gloves with the RBK cuff protection?

    They are a tighter fitting glove, fingers feel like crap very stiff. They form and follow the wrist nicely when holding a stick.

    I was talking to an equipment manager, Paul Boyer from the Red Wings, and he said the guys have custom gloves and they throw them in the skate oven for 15 minutes and come out soft, like butter.
