  1. Can never go wrong with black.
  2. Picked up the new Explosions in the Sky, Funeral for a Friend, Smashing Pumpkins, and Shadows Fall joints. Great month for music, certainly makes my hour+ commute go by better.
  3. How'd your stuff get stolen? If I ever had gear stolen, and I saw an opponent on the ice rocking it, that'd give me an excuse to pull a Jeff Kugel.
  4. Very nice, I used 652s before moving to 5030s. My beef with 652s are the OG caps could probably house a tribe of dwarves living in peace and unity.
  5. So how does the hybrid stick perform?
  6. Those gloves are to die for.
  7. That's a slight skate upgrade!
  8. I swing a Supreme90 P88 blade and it's great: lightweight, sturdy, my dream pattern. Of course now that I hear NBH is cutting/scaling back their replacement blade line, then I won't be happy.
  9. I have the pants too. I am placing a personal bounty on the head of Tim McCracken. He's the coach and chief goon on that Syracuse team. A hundred bucks of my own money for the first one of my guys that reallly nails that creep. Dunlop, you suck c*ck.
  10. Edit: removed RBE I visor after one game, and went back to white FM480 cage. Not worth the risk, but the visor itself is pretty good for beer leaguers on a visor budget. No fogging, good visibility, low price.
  11. Eh I wore the bubble (dangler) last year. Took it off cuz I got the curse... Gotta love the look of it (the dangler)... but the protection is pretty bad. Everytime I got or gave a hit the cage would come up exposing the lower half of my face. Which is the exact same for everyone else I know that has one. Thankfuly I suffered no injuries. Took it off and started scoring a lot more frequently again, haha. Sidenote- Wore a half sheild for the first time tonight. (Obviously not allowed in MN HS hockey.) I was definately nervous the first few shifts, but i got semi used to it eventually. Good info, I'll stop overbidding on bubbles on eBay and stick to my white FM480. I also tried a half shield for the first time the other night and didn't like. Too many sticks and elbows and pucks for my liking (and dental bill).
  12. TCSnipes, do you like the FM480 cage over the Jofa bubble? Vice versa?
  13. Update: Itech RBE I visor and a P88 pattern NBH One90 blade. P88 is the new Coffey curve for me :)
  14. Those look nice with the black laces. I've got an extra pair laying around, maybe I'll throw them on my 1500C's. very nice, i cant even find black laces without blue ticks though. my favorite skates as well. Icewarehouse.com has black, with white flecks.... they aren't the best "waxed" laces, but they're decent. I say "waxed" because they don't feel like it at all... To be honest, my laces is with yellow ticks... on a black/orange skate but... :) Does anyone have any idea of a better holder for this skate? I have thought of CCM´s new black I think its called E pro holder of the new Vector. Most for the color, but is this something for this skate? EPros are great. They can fit on most skates, just have to do a bit of drill work. Consult your LHS.
  15. oooh...we need to rock a jersey collection thread. Love jerseys.
  16. I'm jealous about having so many sets of gear. But why have so many sets? Just because?
  17. From a beer league Montreal tourney the other week:
  18. Haven't really given Rise Against a chance previously, but I'm loving all their songs on their MySpace. I think I'll get their latest album. I also need to get Postal Service for times where I'm not in the mood to headbang like it's 1986.
  19. Yes, the first bar below the top most portion of the cage ran directly across my eyes when I tried it out in the store. Same thing for Itech VIII and the old III model as well. Drives me nuts. FM480 is the only cage I can wear that doesn't do that to me. Of the new school cages, the 8500 is my favorite aesthetically. I still don't dig on Itech designs (including the upcoming Fantom), just my PP.
  20. YAY!!!! What's it been? 2 months in the waiting?
  21. Nice, can't wait, dude. :lol:
  22. You guys like the Itech cage? I had that model but couldn't stand it because one of the horizontal bars went right across my eyes in my field of vision, drove me nuts. I didn't flip the screws, maybe that was the solution.
  23. Any ideas on how old those pads might be? I'd give the over/under at 25 years...
  24. BK - I love the understated graphics on those mitts. Cobra - Love the OG shoulder pads. I love lamp.
