NWoodhockey17

Really looking forward to tapered wood blades again, other brands just were not cutting it there, all the new stuff looks great. Hopefully the loose under apparel will be easier to find now as well. Got my custom S17's, easton came through huge there. Not as flashy as other brands but Easton is just so damn consistent year in and year out.

it may just be me but has anyone else felt that the X-60's run a bit big? i tried on a 7.5 in the 60's and it felt big where as in both xxx and xxxx's i was a solid 7.5. i tried the 7 in the 60's and it felt much better though, anyone else notice this?

are those warriors tikhonovs' from when he broke his hand?

don't have pictures to show but i recently took a knife to the back the tongues in my xxxx's so i could cut out the plastic pad. feels much better now and gives me great forward flex. i tried to have bauer just not put the pad in at all, because they did that with my xxx's, but they forgot so i figured i would just take matters into my own hands lol.

how similar are the datsyuk and tavares curves for this year? and would the spezza curve be similar to what it was with sherwood? thanks.

aka. X60's dressed as Vapor XXXX's? and JR are they going to save these for a holiday launch next year? or will this be summer 2009?

so what would that be similar to, in NBH or easton? or is there no equivalent, as mentioned in another thread, it does look a bit like a longer heatley.

has anyone had any experience with the 9K pants? ie. how do the straps hold up and does the sock velcro thing work well?
