If you have done all of those, you either have the wrong skate for your foot or you are just lacing them too tightly. I personally like a looser fit at the bottom of the skate and a lockgrip tight lace at the top.. If you are worried about laces slipping, you should get some waxed laces. There are 3 reasons why your skate should hurt... 1) wrong size/type (most common).. No matter how much I try, my big ass feet will never fit in a vector/vapor skate. 2) Wrong insole. If you have a weird arch, you need a custom insole or your foot is going to hurt because you are stretching muscles and bending bones that aren't supposed to bend... I found a nice secret.. if you take the insole out of an old pair of shoes that you have worn out, its a perfect fit. 3) Lace too tight.. (I see it a lot).. You need support, but your foot needs blood. If your skate is looser at the bottom, the boot will give a little and let your foot move more naturally without compromising performance. p.s. If you are a new skater.. why the hell are you starting with a super stiff protack or graf?...

Sigh.. they never had deals like this down here in the states... sigh. I am on the prowl for a new tps stick too..

Sweet :D Im actually planning on taking a trip back there this summer. I'll be sure to send a pm you way before then :)

Hahaha, I have skated there! The only one I knew of was in megamall. The entire 2 years I was there, I didn't hear anybody even mention anything about hockey. The only conversations I would have about hockey were with the figure skaters who asked if there was a local club team. There was a roller hockey club in Quezon.. but no hint of icehockey. Its actually the OPS V.3. I love it. I got it for $80 on team discount from my LHS when they were first released. I think harrow is trying to get rid of them to make room for the new Christian ops' so you can find good deals on them if you look around. The v.3 is top end for Harrow, but with its weight, its hardly a "top of the line" stick compaired to other brands with lighter models. I use it when I play d because its a tank.. I have had it for 4 months already and it doesnt have a single chip on it. It also does have the sandpaper-ish grip too it (which is nice.. because it doesnt peel off). I dont think they offer a non-textured shaft. They have the kind that I have and a rubberized style that is even more grippy. I am not a fan of grip shafts, but this one is a nice compromise. All around, its a nice stick and will make a nice shaft when (if?) it ever breaks.

No, but I spent a few years there.. Its my second home :)

its actually red.. the camera on my phone is crap. You can tell from the philippines flag in the background (that also looks pink :S ).

Thought I would toss my pic in before practice tonight.

Thank You again!

Thanks :)
