VH Footwear/TRUE by Scott Van Horne

I'd say they are most similar to the XL2000 molded tip. -

Correct. The new material imo lasts longer and is more durable -

10000% agree. Here are some straight up facts about all 3. True. QC isnt where it needs to be. Bauer. Absolutely the worst for blade alignment. CCM. The worst for protection although for the right foot comfortable. As @Nicholas G says you just have to pick your poison. -

I'm at 970 and counting. I rarely see these glue issues. My issues are forgotten embroidery and that's been maybe 5 or 6 times? -

No they do not. Just a moldable foam. 😉 -

I disagree. Had 2 high level guys had them since last Christmas and no issues with shot blocking. And the best part was less wear... -

I'm pretty stocked on XS black and regular I'm sure most others are y now as well as Nash had a bunch months ago. And no issues shipping if not in Canada. (If not available where you are) -

CCM XS has been out for a full season at Pro level. I haven't heard of a single issue. From what I cam tell and have been told the tower is stronger in the back on the XS and the blade movement after a season is relatively non existent compared to the B Trigger. My son had then since Christmas and just took them off for the new True holder. So far liking both. Although the True is lighter with the shorter blade. He doesnt seem to feel any difference at the moment. So all is good. I'd highly recommend the XS if your wanting the taller steel and quick release. -
Sparx Skate Sharpener - At home sharpener

Pro Sharp with Diamond Wheel. IMO. More sharpens and more consistant. Do you have diamond wheels on them now?? -

What blade is that? Stock holder mounting? -
VH Footwear/TRUE by Scott Van Horne
oldtrainerguy28 replied to dsjunior1388's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
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. -

It's serviceable but the holder would need to be removed like the tuuk. -

Don't need to . DM for the details -
Unless you want to get super picky about lines... they kinda look pretty similar...??

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.
-
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.

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..

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 -

If you can get the new holder.. get it -

oldtrainerguy28 replied to dsjunior1388's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
That's why the holder is taller. .maintains that angle with less weight and steel -
