What you have accomplished since you first started is truly amazing. It's nice that you have recorded your progress over the course of time. -
Sparx Skate Sharpener - At home sharpener
mojo122 replied to tamtamg's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Would make sense that they consider the feasibility of a commercial grade machine. Once you have saturated the home sharpener market the sales of your units will drop. Of course they may be satisfied with just marketing their consumables, but a commercial grade machine might be a good sell to rinks. Especially complexes that have multiple sheets and attract tournaments. I know for a fact that a rink pro shop near me has several machines just to handle situations when 12 teams are playing at the same time. -
Hope you had a black car previously. Keeping it clean is a full time job!

Just go LS4...

Bummer...good luck. Hope everything goes well.

Sorry to hear that Chadd.

Not possible...

I skated in them for 2 hours at SummerJam and had no issue coming from Supremes. Pitch was a non factor.

While I'll admit upfront that I know nothing about 3D scanning, just looking at above process I would have some reservations about the scan's accuracy. And PAID reviews are WORTHLESS...

Sparx Skate Sharpener - At home sharpener

There must be something significant in regards to FBV and BFD otherwise there would be no FIRE with SPARX. -
Sparx Skate Sharpener - At home sharpener
mojo122 replied to tamtamg's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
I don't want to hijack the SPARX thread, but BFD is less than precise compared to FBV. BFD is a scale where a particular dressing can feel within a range (for example, bite can feel like anything from a 1/2" to 5/8") and FBV has multiple spinners equivalent to specific hollows (for example 100/50 = 1/2"). If the SPARX fire ring is closer to actual ROH, then I'd say it's a better system than BFD IMO. -
CCM Super Tacks Skate Initial Thoughts
mojo122 replied to JR Boucicaut's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Skate with the custom insole and see how that goes. Even if it takes up some volume it doesn't necessarily mean that it will cause you problems. The yellow foam provides no support at all so I wouldn't skate on it long term. If the custom causes you issues over time then look into something supportive that is low profile, such as the carbon SuperFeet or SpeedPlate. -
catalogue review 2016 Bauer Hockey Catalogue

I've only seen black outlined in white on the 1N glove. -
I have 3 sets of LS3 in my rotation and haven't had any issues. I also remove mine after every skate to dry them completely and am currently skating 4 times/week.
-
Go with one skate with the shim and the other without, then see which fit you prefer. They will compress over time, but I wouldn't say significantly. Like I previously posted I attached the shims to my inserts, but don't have them permanently attached to the toecap. My next test is to see at what point I need to replace mine.
-
What I did was to experiment using and not using the shim by not permanently attaching them to the toe box. In the end I wound up using the shim, but I just insert them and take them out with every use. I just prefer to be able to take them out to air dry and occasionally spray them with deodorizer.

catalogue review 2016 Bauer Hockey Catalogue
mojo122 replied to JR Boucicaut's topic in 2016 Product Catalogue Reviews
There are some changes from the previous Vapor gloves: 1X Pro has the pro ivory nash palm with overlay. 1X has the addition of XRD to the backhand and palm is now AX Suede Quattro grip. X900 adds 37.5 to the liner and triple density foams. Palm is the same as the 1X. X800 adds Thermo Max to the liner and PE inserts. -

I went with 3mm lifts when I had LS2 holders installed. Can't tell you if it matched the stock pitch perfectly, but I was satisfied with the results.

Catalogue Review 2016 True Hockey Catalogue
mojo122 replied to JR Boucicaut's topic in 2016 Product Catalogue Reviews
Many guys I know would rather repalm than get new gloves. I think many in the market for new gloves will consider them for the easy palm replacement. -
They come now (at least mine did) with the blue insert plus the thin shim. I tried with the and without and prefer the fit/feel with the shim. Once I figured that out I permanently attached the shim to the blue insert, but manually place them and then remove them after every skate.
