Hard to beat at $160 if it fits your melon properly.
How is the weight of the 710 vs 310?

I'll defer to JR and Co for signoff.
Didn't realize that. IW has already had them for sale for a couple weeks.

Any seen or used the new CCM 710 or 310 helmet? If so, how is the fit/weight versus my old favorite, the V08?

True that. It's not what ya got, it's what you can do with it.

That's the way to do it: find a pattern you like, load up, and stick with it.

Just picked up a pro stock Vrbata A5.2 SBP. Says it is a pattern HCR. Looks like the Combat, curve is slightly bigger.

I just want to follow up with my experience on the edge checker. I received a sincere apology from the owner, who said the edge checker was surely damaged during shipping (it was shipped in an envelope). He said he has corrected the issue and I accepted his offer for a replacement. The new one came in a nice little plastic carrying case, was square, and the gauge was applied perfectly. This one seems much better and should do the job.

Anyone used either of these?
I wouldn't mind owning an edge height checker, but $100 for a BR100 seems a little silly after having used one at the local rink.

Looks like that second one works with two magnets. Not sure about that.
I was going to buy the Prosharp, but when I put it in the cart the cost went to $79 when you included their shipping. So, I went with the $30 edgechecker on ebay (the rainbow striped one, the lower link). Mistake. Looked like it cost 25 cents to make. The back piece measuring gauge was glued on 2 or 3 mm crooked. The magnet portion of the back piece was clearly not square in the least. It's only about 2 inches long, so the inaccuracy stated render it totally worthless. Sent back. A measuring tool needs to be accurate, or you might as well not even use one. I just bought a Wissota 911, so I may have to spring for their $99 Elite version.

OK, it's new stick time. What blade pattern is closest to the Vrbata ?

I've got an old True Temper -made pro stock Vrbata Combat 52 CalR stick, that I think is the perfect stick for firing snappers. What is the closest current True model to the Combat 52 CalR?

I'm getting back into hockey after a 6 year hiatus. Ex college player, bounced around a little before settling into years of senior A hockey. I've always preferred the traditional 4 roll glove for it's wrist mobility (don't like the restrictive feeling of the modern snug fitting gloves I've tried). I can see an advantage to a slimmer fit though ( less bulk, quicker hand movement, agility). Interested in the TRUE glove line. Will the XC9 give me the range of motion of my current glove, an MIA MB22? Or should I stick with the A 6.0 ?
CCM 710 or 310 HELMET

I just ordered a 310 helmet, should have it in another 5 days. I went with it over the 710 because the two are almost identical, the difference being the 710 has an extra liquid filled protection system, which did not really excite me. Will give my impressions when I use it.
