  1. been skating on fbv for a decade now and couldn’t imagine ever going back to a regular hollow. who cares what NHLers use. i’m a 40 year old beer league player
  2. bingo. mine were both loose so i popped them out and replaced them with chicago screws and good lord what a difference. should have come that way from the factory
  3. depends on your level of pay obviously, but for mens league i just buy sticks for $75-100 a pop from HOAPA or allblackhockeysticks since i can get non-grip in the exact curve, flex, and kick point i want. still score plenty of goals
  4. just stole these off eBay for $280. they were never skated in. came with never sharpened LS3 steel
  5. I have and love those Combats except the palms wore out incredibly fast. gotta send em out for repalm
  6. $85 off sidelineswap. liners and loops were cut which I'm not thrilled about, but otherwise they're barely used and can't beat the price for pro stock franchises
  7. i had those back in the day. they were good skates
  8. im on my second hockeytron one and id definitely recommend it
  9. allblackhockeysticks still has drury/staal curve
  10. i also wear the Tron one and i have zero complaints after 5 years.
  11. probably my Louisville "Messier" gloves in calgary colors. one day i'll send them out for a re-palm
  12. i dont tie my skates that tight either, but prefer wax laces just because they're so much more durable. any time i've used non-waxed they get sliced in game 1 or 2
  13. i use 100/50 and love it, but i'm only 165 lbs
  14. my current skates don't have the comfort edge, my last pair did. i've never felt a difference, really. my hockey socks end up being under the top of the skate anyway so even though i skate barefoot, that part of the skate never touches my skin
  15. I've been playing with a completely dead stick for like 2-3 months waiting for it to break while I have a brand new one sitting at home. still scoring with it, so
  16. 100% psychology. and usually the guys spending top dollar on equipment thinking it'll make them better that I play with are ankle benders that need to spend that money on skating lessons instead lol
  17. i try not to spend over $100 on a stick and i always score more goals and get more assists than the guys playing with $300 sticks lol but its beer league so
  18. really? I was told X7 was the closest equivalent and I dont really notice a difference please educate me
  19. yeah, i went from 5/8" to 100/50 or X7 and the difference was insane. almost fell on my face and had to skate really carefully for my first few shifts til i got used to it and been flying ever since. no way i could go back to a regular hollow
  20. i hope my local Pure Hockey doesn't do the same. but thankfully, i have 2 other places i can get FBV done around here.
  21. always been a Graf guy. previously worn 703s and 704. currently wearing F60 which is the predecessor to 703/704 and they're definitely my favorite since its the same skate but they weigh half as much
  22. i have these and think they look much better after 6+ months of wear than they did brand new
  23. i sprayed the cage portion of my Tron combo white which i think helps with looking down at your feet. never been a fan of black cages
  24. i have the Tron and love it. been using it for 3+ years and it barely ever fogs
