I fucking love Leo Komarov, my fav Leaf player
-
Cheers for that, if I can find a 5.5 w in either then it might be doable! The place you recommended have 5.5 R, which I don't think I'll fit in
-
One last question, is there a difference between the ice and roller boots, as if there isn't I'll get a conversion done.
-
I did see on their website they have those in a 5.5R. TBF I was looking at Ice Locker and Willies, as Puck Stop seems to be Bauer only now. I have found 6EEs in Europe, at a good price, but again, they might be to long. I think I will end up with a drive to Coventry or Nottingham to get fitted. I wish I'd got a pair when they came out, hindsight is 20/20
-
Cheers for the info, the only issue is they don't sell the TFs here in the UK and they would try and obviously sell you what they stock (which I would to) So I'd have to buy them and take them in for a baking, but that could be lost money. I'm still hoping my Nexus can be repaired
-
Cheers dude! Yeah Nexus fit me so well, I'm in a 6ee Nexus, so looking at a 5.5ee in TF9s then?
-
I am/was in Nexus EE, so that tells you, I am Mr Duck Foot. There are plenty of TFs still out there, it is just narrowing down the size! Cheers for the response!
-
Can someone please enlighten me, what has happened to the TF 9/7 line, has it been rebranded or are Cats and Hazardous completely different lines, as my hunt for a Nexus toe cap is at a loss and I fear it is new skates time
-
Even bigger update, basically the toe cap is cracked, it needs to be replaced. Now they don't have Nexus toe caps, but they do have Bauer ones, do toe caps come in different sizes or can any old (new) one be put on the boot? TIA
-
As an update here in the UK, I took them to our local skate shop, who flat out refused to do it. A mobile 'experienced' guy, who said he could rivet it, which sounds like a botch job, a cobblers in town who couldn't get it in his jig. Found a company who are able to do it, posted the skates today and they'll be there tomorrow afternoon
-
Sound, so it should be a simple sew job then!
-
Top cap coming away from rest of boot, is it repairable or am I looking at a new set of skates? TIA

Possible Supination - Outside Edge Issues
Left Wing King replied to FlyChicaga's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
I have outside edge issues, a guy I played with watched me skate, and he said I was to far forward on my toes, he said, put your weight into your heels (now I know you have to be in the seated toilet position and I thought I was) however just that simple way of saying where to put my weight clicked, followed by some simple outside edge drills has worked wonders, I feel more balanced. So it could be something as simple as that. I have a pair of old Nike Cortez, and they are very worn away on the outside of the heel area. -
The back and yellow, I'm not to sure if there is a difference
-
After a second skate in these pants, they were a lot better! I guess they have a break in period? Clipped an edge and didn't feel a thing either!
-
That is a very good point! I will see what I can do to make some alterations to it!
-
Used it last night, I'd say I should have gone a size smaller, however with the height adjuster I will get strips of velcro sewn onto them so I can pull it up 2/3 inches instead of 1. However it was first skate with them, so they will always feel different to what you are used too.
-
Brought both, girdle feels nice and comfy with good movement! I'll try it out tomorrow.
-
Cheers for the reply, I'll go L girdle L pants cover as the actual girdle covers don't seem to be for sale here in the UK
-
Is it better to get the pant cover, or the girdle shell? Being in the UK I think the Girdle Shell might be hard to source, or am I thinking way to much into this?
-
https://puckstop.com/products/bauer-pant-cover-shell-senior I best just post the item for reference!
-
I'm looking at buying the ACP Pro in a Large, what sized shell would be best? Is it Large and Large, or do you have to size up/down?
-
I'd say the blade is bent, or it could even be your knee maybe?
-
A bath and white vinegar, it neutralises the smell
-
I went from Nexus to Supremes and the Supremes are a lot less bulky with I like. Only thing for me is there is a small gap from the top of my skate to the bottom of the pad, which the puck always seems to find. Maybe I should have gone to the 14 instead of 13.
