Sweet!

What was your initial impression Chadd?

Mikael1052: I have Alloys on my 8kpumps (previous page) but most say they look really good with the "Old School" Tacks B) Have a pair of 10k's too so pretty soon I will convert the 8kPumps into Iceskates with some LS holders I have laying around too.... :lol:

Mission MG (950's) < Red Star Alloy's < Mission 10k MG According to Justin the 10k's should be the lightest chassis around, but you can't feel a difference (no matter how much you want to) between them and the Alloy's. I prefer the 10k MG's because they can't strip unlike the Alloys. + The Alloys are a little more neutruel in Pitch which I dislike. But both are amazing chassis's. Have seen alot of ppl with the 950's have problems when they swap wheels, seems anything besides those slim Factory Z-rated (which is a proper name come to think about it...) has problems spinning on them.

Tps18: Your skates will pretty much look & feel like these...

Justin: Can you give any info on the Ion shaft, heard it should be quite different from the m-2?

Things look good, thanks for posting the PDF :) Justin: Do you know when the distributors in Scandinavia will recieve their stuff? Not talking about retail but only the distributors, heard some talk about the end of this month? And what's the difference between the old M-2 shaft and the new Ion?

How can they do that? thought composite molds cost like a medium-sized fortune. Believe chadd mentioned 6k's for your own mold...

Am I reading custom pattern, as in Composite OPS at 435g's with your own curve???

I also seemed to recall the Evo OPS was listed as 435g. The Blades are 145g (and durabillity on salming comp blades is pretty good from what I've heard Chadd mention) so I definantly be looking into those. Guessing the shaft is around 320 then (if the Evo is 465), when will you get into the shop on find out? Black and yellow track suits mmm... B)

Jason: I'll be checking out the track suits for sure. You mentioned the Evolution Taper shaft had 2 grips, one smooth and the other sandpaper. One of my teammates has a TF10 shaft and it's a very rubbering/grippy surface, guess it's an entirely third grip. Like the sound of the smooth (very slight grip) surface, how long is the taper compared to other brands? And how those the taper blade/shaft combo compare to the Evo Ops? (guessing it's comparable to last years Evo, and not the new one, since it's been changed slightly the season) B)

SR27: Where do you play hockey in Germany?

Jason: Have you held the Evolution taper shaft? Guessing it's none grip and what's the weight, will probaly try to get a hold on one here in scandinavia no matter what but it's nice to know... because ppl ask about weight all the time. haha ;) Like the look of those track suits, my hold team is about to get new ones... do you have any experiances with the suits? And 22mb is not that bad.. B)

The shift 2 is more like a "traditional" skates, you can see it cleary in the second pick. It's a higher cut than the shift1 next to it, actually that's just a really great pic, props to JR :)

Fletch: I love the centerice pic!!! with the Anahiem logo, that's so bad B) We can't even play indoors around here, stupid goverment refuseing so build facilities, and then your playing on a NHL rink argh! :lol:

Draper is Inno's Sakic clone right? And the Robitaille is compareable to? Weight/Specs trump Pimps anyday...
