  1. It's quite horrendous looking, I'd try it, but not at that price.
  2. If I was skating 10 hours a day, I would get 2~3 pairs at a time, and rotate them every 5 hours. Regular shoes work the same way, two shoes bought one after another wear out much faster than two shoes bought at the same time and swapped every day.
  3. 1. True 2. Easton M8 (?) 3. Graf Supra 605s 5. CCM Tacks from the 90s 4. 2017 CCM Tacks SMU
  4. Did you have to use any spray? or just wiping it down with a cloth?
  5. Some leagues have exclusive suppliers. As far as I know CCM/Reebok are the Exclusive Supplier of most protective gear/jersey for the OHL, and I think partially for the sticks (I do believe you need to get an exemption to use Bauer sticks I'm not 100% on that).
  6. What about maybe before you start anything, putting a flat rod through the channel and gently seeing if you can bring it down or not? It probably won't work, but if it does, it'll save you from taking anything off.
  7. Ah sorry, I saw your post on Reddit, and quickly skimmed through this one. I don't think there ever was a 300. You could always ask CCM directly.
  8. The stick looks like a CCM RBZ 290 if you zoom in. https://imgur.com/a/eGs8tP1
  9. Ribcor Trigger 4 Pro seems to be more and more available to the general public, so probably the older Ribcors will be on sale now. I know that they've been marked down a bit for the CCM internal sales.
  10. The pictures don't seem to work
  11. 1 - You can experiment with this, as it's the least permanent solution 2 - The most permanent solution, will not change over time, but also requires the most effort, possibly weakening the footbed of your skate 3 - Somewhere in the middle, but as you sharpen, it may change things slightly over time.
  12. I think Hybrids are nice, but the common problem I've heard from people that use them is that there's a big blind spot where the cage meets the visor part. I'm probably going to try the FV1 as well once my Bauer goes.
  13. Here's the finished product. https://imgur.com/a/uztuXtk
  14. I put some Liquid Electrical Tape on my insoles, and it's worked well. I think Nicolas G was the one who told me about it in the TRUE skates thread.
  15. I have a RX3 with a rating of 75, and I feel more flex it in than my SuperTacks which has a flex rating of 65. But I'm not always great at sensing these things.
  16. Same for me, I don't mind SuperFeet in my Outdoor skates, but otherwise, it's the stock Trues or Grafs SIDAS footbeds for me. I also have a pretty low/collapsed arch.
  17. I'm tempted to go to this place which uses it https://www.performaxx.ca/ next time I'm in Montreal and try it out. If I do, I'll report back.
  18. After having seen/studied how some counterfeit manufacturing works in China (specifically for clothing and watches), replicating this is a non issue if the sticks are manufactured somewhere in China. Maybe it could be a sticking point for a patent law, but pursuing it overseas would be a whole other issue.
  19. I went through a ridiculous growth spurt, from being one of the shortest kid in grade school to being one of the tallest. I can attest that it really messed things up with my coordination.
  20. I'm sure most Hockey store in Montreal would have it, Sport Experts and what not. Hockey Monkey is also a good store in the West Island, if you happen to be that way.
  21. If anyone can pull it off, it'd be Ovi and Subban.
  22. I'm trying this tonight, https://imgur.com/a/uztuXtk 2 questions, 1 - did I put on enough? 2 - did you also apply it on the bottom of the soles?
