				Interesting story about profiling/sharpening
oldtrainerguy28 replied to shooter27's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
I guess I'd have to call back. If they would sell both I'd buy. Team profiling would be a breeze. -

Agreed. I'd get the profiler if it was I was able. -

You should. I have been trying to buy a profilier for 2 years. They wont sell to anyone except NHL teams. -

Sounds like a major fit error on the scan. Never had that issue. Not that small anyway. But not sure who they were able to refund? Very odd mentioned. -

What shop was this?? - 
	Not sure where you see an argument and especially quoting me about me thinking Daryl is a great guy? It just so happens I have worked with him for 3 years every summer. I don't agree with his technique but learned why and how he does it and at the end, we agreed that there is good and bad doing this way. Where is the argument?

	Amazing man. So nice to chat with. And an amazing skater.
 - 
	But you cant play a game with no laces so while strengthening may happen it's not practical. Its interesting
 - 
	But shouldn't the blades be realigned properly to do this? Doing this on skates with bad alignment makes zero sense? Aligned yes....
 - 
	You need to go to LA. Daryl Evan's I believe his name is skates with no laces at all. Great teacher and awesome gentlemen. I personally disagree but after talking for hours with him we came to a mutual understanding of the bio mechanics and his theory.

Probably referring to the steel. Although I did 2 weeks for holders. Back log. -

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
oldtrainerguy28 replied to tamtamg's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
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. -
