  1. I personally dislike Sparx. For some reason, it just doesn't have the same glide and bite as when I sharpen my skate by hand. I recently used a Sparx to sharpen since I was taking apart my primary machine for cleaning and the Sparx sharpening felt terrible. I obviously checked the edges and hone the steel myself. It just didn't feel the same and did not feel good. Oh well.
  2. I think CCM will take those off Amazon before the end of the week. It's against their terms to sell through online marketplaces such as Amazon.
  3. Got the Profile III Titanium today. It's the same shape as the Profile II. Both have been revised for 2023. It comes in a gunmetal color (matte black) and the i2 (oreo) which is pictured below. Pictures below are a size L cage on a size M Super Tacks X.
  4. I would say the heel is a standard A on the regular width skate. If you need a AAA heel, these might feel sloppy for you.
  5. I assume your old steel was heavily sharpened, and the profile has been worn to be more rockered, which means less contact between the steel and the ice since your old steel was more of a 8' profile. The new steel would have been 10' profile, which has more contact with the ice and steel, so the standard hollow would feel more aggressive.
  6. Rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits should work.
  7. Interesting. Kinda reminds me of the spray you can use for baseball that stays tacky. https://www.rawlings.com/product/BGS.html
  8. Send me a DM. I might have some top tier stick options for you at a low price.
  9. Just wondering what do you like better?
  10. Never heard of it. There were a few other brands that sold something similar. Tovi Hockey for example; https://tovihockey.com/technology/diamond-coat-liquid-tape/
  11. POWERFLY HOLDER & STEEL: https://share.vidyard.com/watch/cE4e52BHmWsWtgnLFtXHzY?
  12. The gunmetal version I was able to preview did not look like the current Re-Akt Titanium, which was raw. Indeed, it looked painted or powder coated. The shape for the II and III seems the same.
  13. It will not be available as a standalone purchase in S1/S2 2023. Not sure about 2024.
  14. 2023/2024 Bauer Cages, including the new titanium cage: https://vimeo.com/833381029
  15. Very soon. Super pumped for it to release in the i2 version (oreo)
  16. They are significantly stiffer than the LS Edge holder.
  17. Good question. In the retail models -> 14" Bauer Vapor 13" Bauer Ultrasonic 13" Warrior QR 13" Warrior LX
  18. Order 6, keep 2, sell the others. Profit.
  19. Like I said, in time the TRUE "twist" as I call it becomes standard for players who use the customs. You can also flare the cuff as well, if needed. I am not a fan of waxed laces, they tend to lock in too tightly and cause more issues than benefits. Glad to hear the lace bite has been resolved; nice play on words there 😛
