Thank you Scott, Also I have received a reply from the other VH person. I have sent you emails twice but it might not reach for you. I was worried about perhaps you were sick!
-
Thank you Davetronz. I've sent an email to Shawn for asking Scott's state.
-
He already received my parcel before he gone to vacation.
-
I sent my skates back to Scott at 13, June. I was taught from some people on this thread that Scott might be in his long vacation. I don't know that detail. But I think now is the term of beginning conditioning camps in Canada, isn't it? Of course vacation or holiday need for him. But I wanted to be taught if he already had a plan for the vacation. If I knew that schedule, I didn't send my skates back and continued using because it is not repair but just customize. Probably I sent after his vacation would be over. I checked VH's website though I couldn't find something like schedule information. Does anyone know about his vacation term?
-
I wonder when will it go to the end that the long weekend of Canada?
-
I sent my skates back to Scott but now I've been not able to receive reply from him. This is very rare for Scott. I'm waiting my skates for changed flexible tendon guard and thicker tongue.
-
I don't know correct English for "no-face" sorry... How do you say that wearing only helmet without cage or visors?
-
Ofcourse this cage can't be used in official matches. Though in ordinary icetime or recreation matches, we can even choose no-face by our own judges. Always I play hockey with visor or no-face, so I think this Cateye is safer than no-face and this is just a fashion I thought it might be a similar as helm of Vikings if there was half Cateye cage.
-
Cateye cage for player. 270g in contrast with ordinary plastic visor's 80g...

I don' know actually numbers how many NHL players have been attaching longer holder and steels on their skates. These are 2 extreme example though the larger holder and steel can reach somewhere genuine holder couldn't. Of course maybe there are the other reasons for several players, but I think now we can incarnate one's wish or thinking about skating with genuine size holder and contouring adjustment. I think that the half or more of current large holder tuning is just reminder of the age that contouring system and grinders didn't prevail in the public.
-
I explained my issue to Scott, then was suggested to use thicker tongue.
-
I think so too... but it's little expensive, 2000$. >http://www.blackstonesport.com/product_details.cfm?product_id=187 I think It may be able to use any sharpeners if the dresser fix on the table and its bit certainly adjust the same height as sharpener's grinder stone.
-
One is a felt made and the other one is like genuine but cut the upper and nose shorter. I don't ask him nothing about felt tongue though not either for short solid tongue. I marked on the genuine tongue with tape and pen. I don't like genuine tongue's feeling around inside of toecup or too long top amount.
-
I sent my boots back to Scott some time ago. It will return after changed to flexible tendon guard and combine with new 2 tongues and replaced genuine tendon guard.
-
My Sidas was formed for suitable with my VH boots. The craftman always said me that one insole for just one shoes, it can't be use swapping.
-
Sorry I've mistaken. Not for tongue, but I send back for tendon guard. I also considered perhaps the shop which I always using can change to the new tendon guard if I receive the material from Scott. But finally I decided to send back.
-
Do you think it is possible to sharp FBV on Blademaster's sharpener if I bought its dresser?
-
I'm going to send my boots back for replacing tongue to flexible one.
-
I'm uses Blademaster's flatt bottom though do you think FBV is more better than it? I want to try FBV...
-
My shop too. Their firstly work is ski boots fitting. Also they deal with many kinds of other sports, hockey, speed skate, running, base ball, football or anything others.
-
I'm Sidas Conformable too.
-
mc88, I'm considering whether I will send my boots back to Scott too. My boots' tendon guard is not broken but I want to change it to flexible one. Though it takes time because I don't live in North America.
-
I had an icetime with VH skates inserted medial shims. It's so better feeling than normal setting. I have bow-legs. It makes rolling out force naturally. So I put shims into the medial side between holder and outsole. It makes a torque roll down to inside. I got a balance of the forces. I will have to change the holder because already it was cracked. Also the steel will be changed to Step's Velocity and re-contoure with 13' radius and +2mm forward of balance point. Perhaps I will buy felt toungue from Scott. I feel that the end of adjustment is near...!
-
I've completed inserting medial shims. I wonder whether really this adjustment would bring me better feeling or not. I also want soft tendon guard and custom tongue.
-
Ofcourse my boots have been attached little sticked out holders too. But I had used 1 size larger holders for my CCM skates which was the same size as my current boots. After I changed Bauer and VH boots, I downed its sizes from Tuuk's 272 to 263. Now we use contouring systems so I think already we can skate long edge with smaller steel. So I don't mind about this size.
