  1. I'm definitely interested in all the protective lines, especially those gloves :)
  2. anyone know the fit of the respective Sherwood glove lines? in particular, how the rekker ek15 glove will fit?
  3. wow, looks like i might have to plan a trip to windsor soon! did they have a decent stock of them?
  4. man am i regretting missing the warrior sale for work =(
  5. I came in last Tuesday, guy did a great job btw. Unfortunately I'm going to be mostly out that way Sundays so ill only make limited use of my free Tuesday sharpenings. I like the 100 50, might try others in the future :)
  6. I was skeptical at first, having tried it as last Winterfest, it didnt entirely sell me. something just felt very different, but in the end, I just dont think i was comfortable with it. I tried it again at summer jam, and noticed although it had been some time since I last skated, my legs werent as sore as I was sure they were going to be the next day. Since then the rest of this summer I spent exclusively on it, and now that I am used to it, I definitely notice advantages, mostly in the amount of effort i need, but also I feel I can turn a lot better. The only negetive I notice is that it seems like my edges nick up easier with this style, but I am in the process of acquiring a good honing stone to help with this.
  7. Always one of my favorite players, his hockey camps were the highlight of my summer. I met countless wings players through them and stayed all day long for a week in different sessions. He was always very approachable and good with us younger players, and probably is the most responsible for cultivating my passion for the game at a young age. A wonderful human being that will be missed

    CCM CL Pants

    6 months in, Reviewer is 5'8" 185 lbs. Fit: Tight in the waste and short in the leg area, this pant would be great for someone like me who has trouble with the length of other manufacturers pants in the waist size you need. You will want to like a slightly more snug fitting style pant to prefer these over others. Fit is subjective, So ill go without the rating here. Protection: Never a single major issue so far in the several beer leagues and drop ins. Taken pucks to just about any spot on these pants, and dropped a few times to the front and back. These are easily the most protective pants i've owned, and definitely a good step above my fit07 LE of previous. 9/10 Weight: This is where these pants shine. For the level of protection I feel are attained in this design, the weight is rather minimal. This is all a comparison to protection level, as there are likely lighter pants on the market, but nothing that makes you feel as comfortable with your health on the ice. 10/10 Durability: nothing big in terms of negative durability here thusfar. Some minor piling on the velcro tabs, a little normal wear and tear, and the belt probably holds with about 90 percent of the force it did initially so i have to readjust a time, maybe 2 times a game. 9/10 Intangibles: The dry liner is really good not only for multiple games in a day, and drying equipment on the balcony, but also ensures that your not adding a whole lot of weight during your skate. My pants dry before any other piece of my gear. would like a slightly better sealing system on the zipper flaps at the bottom of the leg. 9/10 Conclusion: if your looking for a great protective pant, but want to maintain a low weight and have the bucks to put down, the CCM CL pants are an excellent options given that you like the fit of the pant. Its definitely worthy of being a top of the line pant model. 9.25/10
  9. now that'd be a better glove image!
  10. maybe its meant to look like its proudly waving. flags arent really meant to be straight often anyways
  11. Skates - CCM vector u08 with rocket runner Stick - Reebok 11k, datsyuk pattern Gloves - Reebok 7k Helmet - Reebok 6k Pants- CCM fit07 LE Shoulder Pads - CCM fit05 Elbow Pads - CCM fit05 Shin Pads - CCM fit05 and then for Pond I have Skates- CCM vector u06 with scalloped steels Helmet- old Bauer helmet without cage Gloves- currently using the same gloves in both sets, but once the palms start going i will buy new. All but the skates and helmet from my main set are purchased within the last year when i went upgrade crazy. I love CCM fit line of gear for adult hockey, i recently lost some weight though so I might be needing new pants soon, hoping to hold out until next xmas though as they are about 3 month old lol.
