Yup... never said any of those things

While I HATE to defend Verbero, especially with what they have been doing on socials recently... Cypress was the OLD Verbero and totally different company and sticks compared to the ones they are selling now. So you can't really compare the 2 unfortunately.

When things don't work out for you and you basically call out people's fixes and solutions out as hacks even though they have helped a tonne of people on here. We will continue to call out your dumb comments. Just because you don't like True skates doesn't mean there aren't good and doesn't mean there is some mass conspiracy here. It is VERY clear you knew ahead of time they would work for you, but went ahead and then complain constantly once you got them.

They have HSM x PRO in the images for the curves. I am not sure why you would think the 400g version was going to directly compete against the top end from the big companies at $360+.
-
the HSM Blackouts aren't good, but the Prostockhockeystick ones HSM sells are good. Don't think you can get the Benn pro in that model though.
-
I have had so many people question that the tips of the blades aren't sharp when I sharpen their skates... but then I have to explain how no, you aren't skating on the 8mms of space from the holder to your skate. The shops just bananad your steel and you will be fine.

Have you tried moving the tongue up and down in the boot to try and change the angle of the tongue so it might not be hitting the same spot.
-
It wasn't supposed to be "better" than what they currently have, it was supposed to be different and going back to a mid kick. The Novium isn't great, and the weight is WAY off from their advertised weight (and not close to tolerances). But it is a completely different kick point option than what they had before, too bad they didn't just updated the HD1 stick though.
-
Yeah, we followed what came in the box.
-
Retails ones still form A LOT and you have to be careful of over wrapping the eyelets so you can actually get your foot out just like the customs. But they still don't mold as much as the customs do obviously.
-
Must be a hack because it doesn't work for me!
-
He is talking about Cat Pros, not the SVH Customs which are the ones in the video.
-
Did the AS4 Pro change from the AS3 Pro? AS3 Pro was SOOOO easy to shot for a high kick, easier than Ultrasonic as well and that was a huge improvement over the 2S Pro.
-
Bauer should be selling all of this special paint jobs they are doing, same with the goalie stick.
-
I am going to try and get more info on this Warrior one. I could use a replacement for my current CCM one so I would like to have a source on more.
-
I like the fit MUCH better on the HP45 than HP70s. HP70s are an older style of pant and the HP45 are just cut nicer on the body and are more anatomical.
-
I missed this... HPTK are just the retail Tacks pants with a pro shell. Protection is not up to par with the other CCM Pro Stock pant models.
-
I can't say between the Fit 1 Bauer, but TF line are pretty roomy overall and the Cat line really slimmed them down with a lot less negative space in there.
-
There isn't a thing to disagree on. You are in skates too big, but you don't like skates that fit remotely properly. Keep doing what you are doing if you like it, but saying the people that actually know how to fit skates and how they should fit would've gotten you in the wrong size is bad information.
-
There you go, you just shown that your skates are too big.
-
If you pay close attention to this posters sizing details, they out themselves as having skates that are too big. So you should take the advice of the majority of people on this forums about sizing for these.
-
Not really... depends on the "pro stock" and the model. If it is a "pro stock" but really a junior team or college team it might be more beefed than a retail stick. But then there are a bunch of NHL sticks that have SUPER flimsy blades that basically fall apart after 5 skates because of the specs on them.
-
It basically translates to puck feel. There are foams and often carbon "ribs" through the blade to dampen the puck and to stiffen the blade. This video from True shoes sort of how that works. A more dampened blade reduces vibrations and gives a different feeling when you do everything with a puck, and it is very much a person preference of what you like and prefer. More companies are going to stiffer and stiffer blades and it ends up making them "pingier" as you can feel the vibrations a lot more off of the blade. I LOVED the dampened blades of the Geo, Ultrasonic, Sync. Passing and stick handling just felt better to me, but again it is a personal preference thing so you have to figure out what you want more.
-
Blade dampening and pinginess as I call it. Triggers have the most dampened blades of CCM sticks so this makes sense why you noticed that.

HGJS, FT4, 10K, 2S Pro, HGST should all be pretty flared cuffs for what you are looking for. Why not just go back to Eagle?
