  1. Testors paint marker will look better.
  2. Interesting- looks like Gen 1 tendon guards. Love the tongues.
  3. I use the CCM footbeds as well, going on three + years now with no issues. You shouldn't have to rebake. May fit a bit more snug as the CCM insoles are thicker.
  4. I've had excellent luck picking pro pairs that once baked fit close enough to my customs that I don't notice while skating. I've also put two teammates into them that wouldn't ever spend full retail on a pair of skates but jumped at $400 or less for a like new pair. As long as the sizing is right and there aren't any dramatically different anatomical differences between the skate and your foot it's the same as buying any other pro stock skate. If anything more forgiving given the pliability of VH/True once heated.
  5. The white on those is custom to those skates. Unless otherwise specified, the chrome/black piece at the ankle is/was the standard logo/graphic.
  6. That sucks. Best of luck with the searches.
  7. Former Hartford Whaler and All Name Teamer Zarley Zalapski. https://www.nhl.com/news/former-nhl-defenseman-zarley-zalapski-dies-at-age-49/c-293945028
  8. Hard to tell from the pics but it looks like it may have came like that from the factory? The small bubbles at the end look like more of a build issue than wear and tear. Doesn't look to be structural, I would fill it in with some resin and call it a day.
  9. Glad to hear you were able to overcome the lack of R&D and all that speed skating tech to make them work...
  10. Try putting your old steel in the new skates.
  11. Maybe the pitch is different enough from your old set up that it's creating discomfort?
  12. Finally had a chance to watch the videos, interesting concept. Seems like it would in theory be a good match for FBV - the flat portion of the hollow would be bigger and should enhance the already increased glide, no?
  13. How would you sharpen that? Make it fit the old Easton Razor Blade Kevlar holders and watch LHS workers's heads explode.
  14. I was going off the to cap and the actual tongue.
  15. It seems for some an item that is mostly covered by pads needs to look a certain way to be acceptable. Never mind fit or performance...
  16. My point was the boot looks like a player boot with the tendon guard removed.
