I use both alternative helps, (tape could "eat" the palm in 5-10 ice times) but not so noticeble as i want to..

Hey guys! I need some advice with choosing a brand new pair of gloves. there are some key points: 1. i sweat alot. ALOT, especially my hands. my gloves become to really wet after 10-15min of ice time, which caused really quick palm wearing, and i got a hole on a upper glove roughly after 2-3months of using almost every pair of gloves I had 2. i really need a snug fit of gloves because i had some finger injuries. plus, my hands are really narrow and skinny, size is 13". 3. I've tried gloves with a special palms inserts, like ccm tacks 9080 with kevlar reinforcements, but i felt lack ot grip and stop using them. so the hard grip is important too so, according everything i've spotlight above, i'm trying to choose something which gives me a nice snug fit, realy hard grip and will be durable enough to not buy a new pair once per 2-3months there are some of i'm considering to buy: ccm 9060. i had a tacks as1 and 9080, but on as1 a palm of the upper glove was completely destroyed after 2 months, and 9080 had a really bad grip for me bauer (2s pro, 2s, s29) - but i have no ideas what kind of palm a mounted on them because models are fresh.. pls, help me to choose something -) maybe there are other options exist, except ccm and bauer? all recomendations are welcome thanks in advance!

Hi there Looks like i've finally decide to switch to girdles from pants after 20yrs -)) I can see two options to consider - tackla breezers and ccm supertacks as a top level choise, but i'm open to get something else as well Does anybody has an experience of using both of them? Which pro/cons? What I'm looking for after pants (from much importance to the less): - mobility - lightweight - breathable -) Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, As far as i'm living in the middle of nowhere, i'm trying to find nice and easy online pro shop with wide stock of blades (step, tydan etc) and andvanced shaprening options like profiling (prosharp etc) and fbv/channel z Second point is using PayPal and international shipments Thanks in advance

Hey guys, I've got a problem with my FT2s After 4 month of usage I found out serious problem with both holders The blades mounted on each holder start to wobbling Now is absolutely impossible to use a regular CCM steel, and with my fresh Step blades (because they are wider) i have wobbling effect little bit less but I feel it (mostly on right holder) So, are there any experienced guys who faced with such kind of situation (all the servicemen advice me just replace both holders to new ones, and told me that newer even heard about same cases before...) Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Thanks, JR Actually it's easier way for me to remount holder in LHS for few bucks than having a deep dive in to the huge corporate machine like Bauer -))

Is it safety for outsole structure to remount 280 instead of 271? I mean drilling new holes near by existed ones

I didn’t ask mybauer to mount something exactly - it just happened In fact - there was not any point about holder size in the spec all that I’m worrying is it normally or not

Hey guys! I've ordered my new bauer 1x, with these options: L-9 0 , R- 8 3/4 When I got my new skates, I've found out already mounted holders 272mm, but the LHS guy who helping me during the order told me that mybauer usually mount 280mm size on same size for retail ones Second point is the look of skates - seems like that 272 is really small (roughly 1cm gap from border of outsole on the toe and 1,5cm on the heel side) Is anybody here to make it clear? Thanks!

I guess something like that... BTW, I've ordered it with tan clarion liner As far as I can see on they web site - there is an option to choose black wick liner... Anybody ordered this? Any feedbacks?

Nah, come on, it's old song - where did you figure out that the weight is bigger factor for me? The question is why my current VHs are heavier more than 150g than previous ones (options are mentioned above) and how to get next one with adequate weight

I cant believe -( I've got old ones - they are pretty light! Why just not to produce replacement?! Waiting to officials....

I mean "order", not "make", sorry Probably could I ordered something that bringss a lot of weight? if not - it is bad news for me

Hey guys! Maybe it is a stupid question, but anyway -)) I have 2 pairs of VH First one is more than okay - it is first gen of VH (carbon toes, so on), but i was little bit wrong with measurements - so that is why I have ordered second pair with Rob All i wanted is updated one with correct measurements of my feet, but I decided to add some options: - Hard Plastic Toe Cap - Double Stitching near Toe Cap - Liner Options -- Tan Clarino - Flexible tendon guard (one-piece tendon guard) - Black felt tongue with Enhanced Metatarsal Guard - Blacked Out VH Logo - Holders and blades - Easton CXN 280MM In the end I have got new one, they are almost okay, but they are on 100g heavier that previous ones at least! Look, i am not a "weight freak" but it is awful - in size 280mm they weight is more than 900g, it is like old Graf -))) So here is the question: how can I do my VH lighter? Maybe, one of mentions above options caused that weight addition - is it the reason? Please, share your experience with me Thanks in advance!

Hey guys I know that it is stupid question, but sorry one more time -))) I'm between easton cxn holder and ccm sb4.0 for my new pair of VH I was fine with both of these last 2 years (cxn on makos and vhs, and sb on ccm tacks) I like "soft" feeling of cxn, but at the same time I like edge hold of sb, and I believe that SB holder exactly lighter than cxn... I'm affraid of the stiffness of sb holder + stiffness vh carbon boot will bring too much stiffness for me As well, I'm not sure that geometrical parameters of cxn and sb are the same, I feel that cxn has a little bit aggressive stance.. Thanks in advance!

Finally got my X01! I have some beginner questions: 1. How often should I dress the wheel? Or how can I realise that it's time to dress? 2. What should I do to get really smooth result? Cuz now my blades sharpen little bit "wavy"... Is there some way to get smooth surface probably? Thanks in advance!

Guys How long it usually takes to reach parcel from Winnipeg to Pittsburgh? I'm waiting for around 2 weeks... -(

What's happened with leather area around pinky toe? Is it non-stitched peace of leather?

Yes I did Thank you, again But I've already answered to you - it's impossible to replace by official way I'm trying to find the way to repair not to replace

Sorry for double post I've decided to move my question in the current thread Got some issues with my Makos after 7 months of using them, around 2-3 times per week The crack is where silver carbon meets plastic upper of boot, above heel and from outer side of foot It happened with both of boots, crack on right boot is deeper Exactly I'm not alone who face with such thing Here is some pics to describe:

Is there anybody know the story about molding time? These ones (like my own Makos) has on box this instruction - 10 min at 92c http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pro-Stock-Easton-Mako-Skates-8-5-D-/190830083259?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c6e5bfcbb But these ones want 16 min at the same temperature: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Easton-Mako-Skates-Size-8-5-D-New-In-Box-/171030103156?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27d2304474 What is the difference?! They are have a same size! Is there any ideas?

I believe yes -)

Does anybody knows when release date for rbz skates will?

Man, if they put it $300 they would sell everything for 2 days -) I would not use that kind of logic for the current situation cuz we're speaking about entry to the market

Guys, quick question - is there same size of RS and Mako?
