No more wood blades? Also, sad about the Iginla. Been using it exclusively for the last year and a half.

Graduating from law school this week. Job market sucks. Loans are huge. The sky is falling.

Graduating from law school this week! (See flip side in the Venting Spot).

Does the release of this new holder mean the end of Easton's current razor bladz holder?

Is it still possible to order HG34's and if so, is it possible to get these customized?

Do you happen to know if the option to order older models only applies to ordering from Graf Swiss rather than Graf Canada?

The color scheme of the boot, chassis, and wheels are perfect. They almost look like a stock setup. Great job man!

Hey Drew. I have about 4 pairs of unused gx1300's mainly for OCD and nostaligia. If I were to consider actually using them, do you have any advice on breaking them in. You're right. The fingers are STIFF as heck. If not, about how long does/did it take you to break in easton gx's in general?

Ahh crap, I knew it looked funny when I typed it.

12PM Ed. definitely. The yellow looks out of place to me.

Those BEAUTIFUL man! Bringin' it back to the '90's!

WOW! Congratulations to David and best of luck to you Pascal. I can really relate to playing and spending time practicing by yourself just because you love too. Bon chance in chasing both your hockey dreams!

You've never seen it? No offense theo, just informing quintin here, you're missing out. KovyRibsFedo has sick hands.

I absolutely love. Love. The old school Easton Air gloves. If you want to get rid of'em lemme know. Don't really care what condition they're in as long as they don't stink :)

Is any stick really worth $95.00? Like BT said, "Ones born every minute..." :lol: Would you be interested in buying a bridge in NY <_< Yeah, I bet sticks hit 150+ some day. I bet no one buys them either. <_<

That looks like a Bauer Pro-R skate that hockeygiant sells for $170 just with different wheels. link oooh, called out.

I agree totally w/ Yglod. I hate this road they're taking as far as aesthetics, theme, names. It might be ok for a clothing line but not for gear. The only thing I like is the AK27 set up.

Does easton do custom skates? I know I've seen marcelo's posted before but I didn't know if the regular joe could get them. Not interested in much else besides custom sizing and an extra long traditional felt tongue.

Old school..........I love it.

I finally got a chance to watch the video in this thread, and it was very interesting but is it anything most sharpeners haven't known for years?

That's right, only I think they were 3000's. His quote in a mission ad was that he "skated 3000's for years...." EDIT: I left out Modano's 652's, pre RBK. I suppose a lot can be left out. This thread could go on forever. B)

Just came to mind..............Kariya's skates. The older model Bauer Supreme line.

I've got an old pair of flak/bauer armour elbow pads, some old school cooper v-flex shoulders (that I don't use) and 2 pairs old (unused/in box) 752 Kevlars :D As for pros, did anyone mention Modano's old school Easton Air GX9800(?) gloves. Before RBK of course. Andy Hilbert is still rocking Nike Ignite 2 skates (I think) and was Gionta still using the Ignite series skates as well?

Oh.................he knows. :D
