Could also be just limited time using it. Without knowing more about you and seeing you play I couldn't really tell you what about the P92 isn't clicking. You may just need to play more and more with the P28 and find what shooting mechanics will work best for you. If you're changing often from the P88 to the P28 I can see why you would be missing pucks high. The P28 is very open compared to the P88 and that will make the puck naturally rise. What might put the puck up top in the net with the P88 could send the puck over the net with the P28. I think going with any of the pro P28 variants would be very much like what you are already experiencing. If anything, they are more extreme in terms of their shape.

If you bounce between the P88 and P28, have you considered the P92?

Pretty easy, just use a spacer. In a pinch you can use the thin visor spacers to give you just enough room for the full 80 setup.

The Bauer 180 skate is 299 on sale at most major sites. To get a Mission skate with Curve composite you would have to wait for the new NLS line and get either the 1 or the 2. NLS2 will be 600+ and NLS1 will be $800+ more than likely. To buy one of those skates to then have to replace the wheels with a full new set($110 for 8 Labeda Addictions) you'd be spending way more than converting an ice boot with an existing holder that he owns.

I'd go 180 if you can find them.

2015 product wouldn't be discussed in a 2014 product forum. Im sure once the 2015 catalogue is posted we will have a place to talk about the new gear.

Good Luck with the skates KeepitLow, im sure you will love them! The MX3's are a great boot.

Chase, you and Neer brothers?

Those are a pair of beauts Chase.

That color stick was only available to the nhl players that were testing the V-series before Easton finalized or wanted to release the graphic to the public. When you do a order for sticks they will offer either v9 or v9e paint. He got that stick from Hockey Monkey.

The ReAKT 100 helmet had me the first time I tried it on. I also love the apx2 pro glove, has a vapor 30 look to it. The lines on the cuff look very similar.

The APX2 will stay unchanged.

I have both Mako 2 and Mako 80 coming out in June as of right now.

Reviewers Specs 5'10 180 lbs Inline 4-5 times a week Elite level Past Helmet Bauer 4500/Bauer 5100 Time Of Use 3 Months First Impressions When I received the Inhaler helmet I was blown away(no pun intended) with the out of the box fit. Having used the 5100 in the past I was right at home with the Inhaler, my head sits really well inside this helmet. The adjustment system is extremely easy to use and get correct, same central location just like the ReAKT/9.0 and just as easy to use. I was playing that same night so I had to get the stickers off and the ear guards removed, I could really feel how well the ventilation was when using the heat gun to get the stickers off. The air blew right through the helmet. After all that was said and done I hit the rink. My first use was on an average fall day( not too hot or too cold) so testing how well the helmet vents might not be as noticeable as it might be in the summer but still a good test. Once again, coming from my 5100 I noticed a big difference in the air flow when skating and the amount of sweat I had dripping down into my eyes. The built in sweat band did wonders but the overall "coolness" of the helmet was noticed. Didn't really noticed I was wearing anything at all. First skate went well and just as expected. Fit The fit on the Inhaler is ideal for me. No pressure points at all. I found my head sat inside the helmet rather than the helmet sitting on top of my head like the 4500 does for me. Nothing to complain about. Not very bulky or any additional room. Very much like the 5100 fit. 10/10 Durability Having used this helmet for a few months now with hours and hours of game time I have noticed a little wear. The helmet it self is perfect, no issues with the foam or anything like that. Only wear I have noticed is the sweatband and where it attaches to the helmet. The pegs have started to come unglued a little bit. This is a replaceable item so nothing to be surprised about. I'm sure I could fix this with a little hot glue. 9/10 Protection This helmet isn't marketed to have the best protection or the latest and greatest tech/spec when it comes to safety. Fully HECC certified and everything so still a safe helmet to wear. Safety is on par with the VN foam style helmets. I have had a few shots to the head and unexpected hits and have not missed a shift. comparing this to other helmets at the same price point I would have to say this would get an 8/10 Conclusion This helmet is perfect for the inline player, we all know how hot the rinks get during the summer and even spring for that matter. This is a game changer in my opinion. I don't have to worry about having to wipe sweat from my eyes or being hotter than I should be. Would I recommend this helmet? Yes. Easy answer. With Mission you expect quality product. I feel very happy with this helmet and its worthy to wear the Mission badge. 27/30 90%
