  1. Dammit, I didn't realize until I read that post but I forget to let you know when my LHS got more XXXXs in. Sorry Miike, I completely forgot. Enjoy these though, they look siick!
  2. No they are a little more snug on the fingers and the opposite side of your knuckles (whatever the correct term for that specififc part of your palm is). It's a dri-fit pad along the back of the hand and through the back of the fingers. I'm sure it won't fit soo snug after you start sweating. :) The RBKs fit tighter and are more streamlined than the 4-roll. And yes, 14" gloves should be fine.
  3. The tip is just a small thank you, it's only a dollar here and there but if someone sees me do it they might do it to. Most of the guys at my LHS are college guys so every little bit helps and it's a little nicer than a thank you. I've been asked about leaving a tip by an old timer, I just handed him my finished skate and asked him if he thought it deserved a tip. He looked at the blade and I asked him if he could expect to get a sharpening as good at any other local shops... He left a dollar tip before his skates got touched. Like I said a dollar isn't much to me but if someone else sees me and leaves a tip, and someone sees them and leaves a tip... It adds up quickly. Keep in mind that my LHS is awesome, I've had them fix my elbow pads and other misc things and they never ask for a dime for those small repairs. I think I gave him a $8 tip or something for fixing my elbow pads.
  4. ahh, I'm with ya there... I'm the only one in the family who's probably ever held a hockey stick. :(
  5. That's cool, any hockey players? I live about 20-30 mins east of Clearwater.
  6. My buddy's band just released another cd this past weekend. I don't think it's been posted before but they're out of Clearwater, FL. Weaksauce (Rock, punk, ska) A lot of their stuff is similar to sublime. In my opinion, they don't have some of their best songs on their myspace right now but they have some good ones on purevolume.com.
  7. They aren't blacked out, that's how they arrived. That's all I get...eh?!?!? Publicly, yes. ;) Aruugggh, I hate teasers! Nice collection, I knew you grabbed those TPS shafts but I didn't realize that you were such a fan of TPS sticks... good man! BTW the MSH bag looks awesome! If my bag wasn't in absolitely perfect condition and basically the same bag I would have been one of the first in line.
  8. That's a very good idea if you can get companies to buy into it. You guys have to make sure to put the products in the right hands so you won't get biased opinions. I hope this means more reviews from less popular companies, as I personally like having good quality products that no one else has.
  9. Not necessarily. Last week at the caps development camp, EVERYONE had to wear the RBK nylon gloves, in new caps red/white/blue. So, it could be a stock the rangers had left over from last year or something like that. The RBK caps gloves for the players that wear them this year are really really really nice Often teams will get a few pro stock whatever, built to no special specifications just for players to try out.
  10. Sick! Yea, Jason is still in the pro shop. I go in there to give him hell all the time. I watched one of your games that you guys had after one of mine. I can't remember who it was against, all I know is that you murdered them :P Too bad you're transferring! Does UCF have a hockey team? I just moved here from Cali, so I know nothing about the colleges! Pretty sick to see someone else on a board that's local to the Tampa area, especially our area :P It wasn't directed towards me but UCF does have a hockey team but they've never been quite as good as USF. USF is one of the better teams right now although some of the best players have moved on in the past couple years, FGCU is just about the only team that consistantly matches up well with USF in the league. UF and FSU aren't very good, haha.
  11. No sir, you don't(had to look you up to make sure, haha). I'm one of Sulli/Colleen's best friends. I believe Smitty is still working in the pro shop... question is has he got his new pads yet?! The team isn't going to be the same without Schwaid, Simpson, Rammer(i think he's ineligible). I think Sean is coming back, any word on Halvy? Last I heard he was in Wisc with Amanda but I haven't really kept up with them.
  12. I miss Schwaid, he's one of the funniest guys I know. Smitty is awesome btw, one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet.
  13. There is certainly NOTHING wrong with going to St Louis, I could think of a few places I would definitely not want to go but St louis isn't on the list. It's a nice area, at least it is to visit and it's a place to get to grow as a player. edit: dunno what happened to JR's post.
  14. no my team gets them done for free because my coach is like the spokesmen of whatever for SRS. oh ok, well I guess you can be horribly mad then. It's better than nothing.
  15. I expect to see some st louis blues pro stock gear in the for sale section! Kidding but seriously, congrats! Best of luck David!
  16. ummm... did you actually pay for that? I wouldn't have given them a dime. You take your stick to get fixed and they give you 1/3 of your stick back with another stick attached to the top, not cool.
  17. that was the first though my mind when I saw the first pic... I'm not a fan of the chrome sticks anymore than chrome holders.
  18. wow, very ummm shiney. Is that the new one90 DUB edition?
  19. Which pair is your favourite? Can you compare them please? As far as comfort(comfort in using them to play) the Eagles. As far as comfortable to wear, one90. I like them all for certain things but I think the one90s are still my favorite, even though I've only had them on the ice once at this point.
  20. I think TPS shrunk the fingers on this model. They feel like current eastons, not as small as the older eastons but still some short fingers. I probably should have got 15" since even with 15" gloves I still have a 2" gap between the cuff and my elbows... ah well, I still love em!
  21. yeah, same gloves. They are actually different from the R8lites my LHS shop has, the palm is slightly grippy(and they aren't black and green). Not nearly as grippy as a lot of other gloves out there. And as typical of a TPS high end glove, plastic inserts are all over the place.
  22. thanks! And it's all thanks to an addiction and left over money sitting in paypal. haha
  23. Yeah, I have an addiction:
  24. haha, maybe we should get you a wheelchair! Ummm if everyone donates $0.50 I think we can get this done! ;)
