sure if you can afford to have that much wrapped up in extra steel!! Here is an NHL player that was diagonosed up close. It was first verified at the rink and then adjusted after a treadmill session. Formally on one of those Pre-setups that some companies do not sure if they used Prosharp but some form of profiling as per height and weight etc in the first video. 2nd was after watching and blade alignment. The skates brand new out of the box were so far off its embarrassing.
-
Not to mention I never said anything negative about Prosharp as a company. But the more I delve into profiling and blade alignment I can phafthom how people do profiles when A: you have never seen them skate or seen a video of them skate. B: Confirm the fit and blade alignment. I would 70% of the Bauer skates I get in are misaligned. Left skate is usually bent by the trigger and right is toe in heel out. If you go by the insole v cut in the back of most if the newer skates it's amazing how far off some of them are. If say probably the main reason Mathews switched to CCM. Could never get on his blade the way he wanted. IMO.

You know it!! Hahahaha

But they should have had it ready to launch prior to making Step stop so that the NHL had time to test and endorse. Now you just pissed everyone off. Highly likely they wont be as receptive now. especially the profiling aspect.
-
you have BT ad well. 2 of them have gotten letters. Massive is European is it not?? that's another kettle of fish if you found a company able to build the same Quality in China you'd be laughing. US lawyers wouldn't touch it.
-
That was mentioned above by JR. However myself I still don't feel it sharpens as well or holds the edge as well. .my personal opinion. Its said to be the same but I don't think its finished the same to have the same edge retention
-
That's 100 false. They are not telling you the truth. 2 of them have recieved them in the past!
-
It maybe but there is something not the same as the Step. It maybe the same base but isnt the same quality. And I spoke to 2 eqm managers that are debating switching to CCM holders. I know many more are not happy. This maybe a different case then last time
-
Ya. you made so much and got soooooooo much free stuff. Hows that new Maclaren. ik on my 3rd now that I have my 7000 sqft mansion. it's a pro shop and skate sharpening. Nobody is getting rich here but Bauer. 🙄
-
You haven't been in an NHL dressing room before have you? I was in Toronto's yesterday and both the Bauer and CCM guy were there. He is not happy about it at all. Another guy in a Canadian city is livid. He has 4 guys that came to him already and told him to buy every pair available. They don't want Bauer steel as it is. If you think NHL players dont think about edge retention your crazy.
-
Hey feel free to do as you wish. The player injured wasn't even playing full contact. But your a grown person you make your own choices. My issue is telling people on a public forum that a modification that you are offering information on could potentially be fatal. More of a guys let's not fo this it's a bad idea and a himmm for you...maybe there is a better option for you personally??
-
they are on that way for a reason. HECC and CSA both test them like this. if you lower the cage and the clip snaps your liable for all the damages. Such as happened in BC a few years back. player lowered the clips checked from behind cage came off and crushed his orbital bones. left with severe brain damage. The player was suspended for a year for the cross check the player hit has been in care since the hit. I have said this before dont alter the construction find a cage and helmet combo that work. I'm sure there is one out there.

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. -
Step steel blades brittle/chipping every skate!

If they were its possible they were over heated. -
Holding edge in turns - deeper ROH or longer profile?
oldtrainerguy28 replied to smcgreg's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Take all but the back 2 rivets out and start over. And I meant warranty on the steel. -

oldtrainerguy28 replied to smcgreg's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Check blade alignment first. Makos probably older boot so could have taken a shot and the blade/holder has a slight bend. If it is an older boot it could be some breakdown. If it's more one way that's where to start before changing other things. -

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. -
Adding pitch to skate without heel lifts or profiling?
oldtrainerguy28 replied to VegasHockey's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Red Dog Hockey Boost. Technically yes you can but just adding it for the sake of adding it to hopefully put him in the right spot is a simple shot in the dark -

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?
