I have a few demo pairs coming in this week to evaluate. https://shop.xcblade.com/ @Buzz_LightBeer How do they compare to Flare?
-
Could just be a shell.
-
The change is very subtle. He may not feel the difference.

TC5 is the Patrick Kane. Basically this: https://prostockhockeysticks.com/products/patrick-kane-pro-stock-curve-3d-visualizer

+1 on all of this. However even talking to the TRUE pro team they dont even have a mold for a MC3 which I thought was funny. Its a mystery! Maybe someone local can go take a look and snap a pic. 😉
-
I like a soft heel and a stiff mid/toe.
-
I like the look, but it does impede flexion and thus functionality.
-
TC3 is the Ovi. Not sure about the MC3. I asked everyone, including the TRUE rep and no one seems to know. lol
-
Not sure I agree that TRUE liners are bad. The standard liner is clarino and wears very well, especially if you treat it with Sno-Seal when you first get the skates. CCM and Bauer liners, which are usually fabric unless you go full custom, typically don't wear as well.

Arch blister typically means your foot is slipping and friction causing the blister or you don't have enough volume and there is pressure on your arch. Going from a 10R CCM FT4 to a 9.5 FIT3 Bauer seems like you are going in the wrong direction. That skate is going to be significantly wider in the forefoot and heel, especially after the boot breaks in. Whats wrong with TRUE?
-
Is this your knob?
-
You need to go with a more flexible boot. I would say a Ribcor 90k would be the closest thing to your One90s. The 100K is a one-piece bot and while its build to be flexible it will still be too stiff compared to what you are used to. TRUE are nice, but think its going to be too much of a different feel for you, based on what you have shared.,

A "Heavy" CCM Jetspeed FT4 Pro Stick??
VegasHockey replied to clarkiestooth's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
This is why Pro Stock can be great but also come with risks. -
Stiffed blades have less foam and more carbon. They are usually lighter and have more pop and less flex. Many people feel that a softer blade or blade with more foam has better feel. Softer blades will typically have less durability than stiffer blades as the blade will eventually start to feel "dead".
-
No, unless you can get your hands on it to measure the lie.
-
Would love to sell you a pair. We have restock coming April 4th. Send me a PM if you want to order @kicksave
-
The FV1 is designed to better circulate airflow which helps prevent fogging.
-
I think you are asking if they will adjust the facing. The answer is yes with CCM Total Custom Plus. TRUE will usually adjust facing and eyelet placement without you asking, but I always include ion the notes details such as you mentioned. Bauer can adjust if requested and you are doing a Pro order.

True Project X and the Vapor ADV.

Help! Can anyone identify this machine
VegasHockey replied to Pigbait's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
The color of the stones means different grit or compositions of materials. For example, some cut cooler than others. -
Skated with a younger player the other day and he didn't use any tape on his stick. Not on the blade or the handle. Maybe we dont need to use tape anymore? Deep thoughts.
-

Yes. I use electrical tape to build the knob top and then used Vuk grip over. Whats most interesting to me is you dont need to overlap the Vuk grip otherwise it locks your hand in too tightly. I also like that you can remove and reuse the Vuk grip too.
-
Not even close.
-
Cool. If you hit a bottleneck let me know.
