  1. Correct, They are less wide and can be mounted in a similar fashion to figure skates and are actually easier to mount than holders that are right and left as you don't have to worry about the outside of the holder being too far off in some cases. I have only worked on 3 pairs so far but I really like it. There will be quirks as with all of the quick release. Until I'm more familiar with this Shift Holder the XS is still my favorite so far. But this one could take off.
  2. Ummmmm I guess they don't use sarcasm much in Boston......?
  3. Wow hows that bitter pill tasting? Hahahahahaha 😜
  4. It's serviceable but the holder would need to be removed like the tuuk.
  5. Don't need to . DM for the details
  6. Unless you want to get super picky about lines... they kinda look pretty similar...??
  7. I knew there was someone else who was intending to go with MIPS. I remember hearing that at the CSA meeting. Easton eh.. hummmm. I think it will be the same as all other helmets and only fit a majority not all.
  8. https://mipsprotection.com/ Performance will be top notch. Fit have to wait and see. Pretty sure it will be dialed in though.. tons of helmet research from that factory.
  9. MIPS tech the #1 group of helmets in the world on multiple sports. It should be extremely interesting. I think it looks like a 5000 Warrior cross..
  10. Well it has a quick release system. Easier to pop blades out than the others. Its taller holder and shorter steel reduce weight but maintain turning ability on sharp turns and the new holder is nice and rigid so no flexing
  11. If you can get the new holder.. get it
  12. That's why the holder is taller. .maintains that angle with less weight and steel
  13. Exactly!!! This process tells you where and how much of a change is needed.!! Great idea for an opening line to explain it. Thanks
  14. Not everyone is the same though. Some need it in the toe. It's all science based. It can't be just it's this or that. The Jump Test tells the majority of the story and it goes from there.
  15. Not even close. There is no way to profile the blades to the degrees that voukd be needed. Plus each foot is usually different. My son was just redone and because of his growth has changed dramatically.
  16. That is Step. And the holder is taller. More info coming......😉
  17. If you'd like I showed Mr Kelly the thread today. Simply email the website and hed be happy to answer your questions.
  18. Correct Step is making the steel and talked to both today a ton of stock will be ready to ship soon. All steel will go through True. Yes the holder runner is patent pending world wide so I think it will be a while before there are any knock offs. Besides it's a very intricate design and not like a typical blade. Should be interesting.
  19. Actually thoughts you were trying to be funny about the snake oil till I read all about bikes and cleat alignmenton. Wow that's crazy!!!
  20. I can do the Jump Test via online. But I would need the akates for alignment and such. But yes way better if you could come see for yourself. Let me know!!
  21. The simple answer is the "jump test". . Ex: my don during the jump test had his left heel raise 22mm before the right was ar 5mm off the ground. When landing they were equal. Hence his left skate had a heel lift. How Mr. Kelly determines all of the data is his patented analytic report and work of 15 years. So with your son if we I'd the jump test we could tell you what needed to go where. As you have all the pieces you could just add it to where was needed. As for alingbment he has a knack for seeing your sons foot and alignment is done how he feels he would be balanced via the centers of the boot from manufacturing not from where you think it should be as the appearance of center in the heel for instance is usually incorrect. Hopefully that helps a little more. I'm just the installation guy... hahaha if you'd like I can forward the question? Hes by trade a engineer and has worked for the US military and NASA His skating background is Olympic speedskater, University Hockey Player (with Mike Babcock at McGill) and figure skater. His wife also an Olympic Figure Skater. Not to mention again his father Red Kelly (recently passed) and HHOF member and his mother a figure skating coach. Just incase someone wondered if had ever skated and how he would be qualified for this. Hehehe.
  22. A. It's a shim system and blade alignment. He recommends you use your normal profile as long as it's not something drastically pitched or large combo. Once the skate is balanced you will find the need for drastic profiles isnt as necessary. B: Website. Mr. Kelly wasn't getting much traction and as you all have mentioned it didnt explain as well as it could have what it does. At the time if its release it was only himself doing the work in Lake Placid. Since he started working with the Leaf and Tampa players we connected through the skating coach and have I convinced him we could take it to the masses. So bear with it as we do the best possible to bring it forward. If there is anything you all would like to see on it I can pass it along and I can try and get them to add it.
  23. Well thanks for that and you are correct I have done that hence why I was trying to be a little vague. So basically its shimming and a alignment of a skate for each person individual needs. Sometimes they are front sometimes rear. Mr. Kelly has worked out a process that is pretty darn accurate and takes the guess work out for EQM. Some the players can actually test the ice temp and adjust extra inside the skate to maintain the same feeling. Not sure what else there is to explain? It's a patented system to evaluate so I don't know how it determines what everyone needs I just install as asked.
