Can we see the back?
-
Yeah, I have my order already. They return calls in order of them receiving the calls. I called basically an hour after they posted everything up. I posted the link a day after it was up so there is probably a big list. Last time they did it, a bunch of sellers and stores on sidelineswap bought a tonne of their inventory to flip. So if you see any flames socks chances are they paid $1 Canadian for them.
-
Everything on the site is orders they take over the phone and shipped. I think it is free shipping within Canada for over $100 orders.

Flames sale is online now. Some massive jersey steals, $50 for team issued jersey with names/numbers (obviously not big names). $40 for blank team issued jerseys. $20 for numbered practice jerseys and $40 for named practice jerseys. You have to call the store, leave a message with your name and number and they call you back and you tell them what you'd like to order. I didn't really look through the equipment section so can't comment on those prices/deals. http://www.flamesport.com/store/content/306/equipment-sale-2018/

Did you notice more blade on the toe or heel when making turns?
-
I completely agree with you, I have had people tell me they thought the toe on the Quads was too much for them. It took me a good 3 skates until I stopped transitioning with the toes and I was comfortably not loosing my balance.
-
I figured as much but wanted to learn what other people thought. I went straight to a Quad 1 and won't go back, I'd like to suggest something as aggressive as a Quad since it should make a very noticeable difference. But I am worried you'd shave off too much at the toe when doing that.
-
Did you ever find an answer to what to recommend to someone who is new to profiling? I know it varies from person to person but I am curious if you found a conclusion.
-
The flapping his "wings" like their mascot?
-
The difference in blade and stick carbon there is really interesting to me.
-
Had some foot pain in the FT1 and needed to get a wider heel and more depth. These felt great right away.
-
Finally got a photo of the new pads, was a playoff game and I wasn't ready to wear the gloves yet.
-
Added some colour, hard to do when playing on multiple teams.
-
Finally got the hockey room in the basement complete...
-
I went from stock to a Quad 1. First 3 skates I felt like I was falling forward on my toes all the time, especially transitioning from skating backwards to forward where I actually fell a few times. Now I love it and won't go back, I feel much more agile in my turns and more stable in straight line. Stopping and starting as really felt quicker as well.

Is the retailer Pro Hockey Life?
-
Well true skates don't attach the holder to the monocoque holder anyways. I wouldn't fear being on edge holders, I've been on my for 3 years with no issues. The majority of time there are issues (from what I heard) is when they have improperly fitted steel in them.
-
I don't think the skates look good with black either. So I'd rather have colour than nothing.
-
New skates! I think they are hideous but if they are comfortable they will be worth it.
-
@ZamboniFever thanks for the replies. Just an fyi, the instructions for the edge checker says "the space between each line indicates an edge height difference of .002" So I think that is a source of confusion.
-
@dkmiller3356 why the LS2?
-
Order has been officially placed... And I was told 4 weeks from payment date. Which is a total of 7 now so that is annoying but I believe the 1st 3 weeks was a retailer issue... But I'm looking forward to solving my goalie skate issues!
-
This team always does that! We may get destroyed 7-1 but we look good doing it!
-
Thanks haha, I still think it looks weird but I can see out of it fine so it seems to be my go-to now. Got some pictures of the pads and mask together!
-
Yup, and I had to tie slack in them after the game last night, pad didn't rotate back enough.
