  1. And I see more people trying on helmets looking in the mirror to see how it looks and not caring at all about how it fits....
  2. I've skated on both a Quad 0 and Quad XS on 254 runners and really did not notice any real discernible difference. I have no desire to try an ellipse. If I was going to do anything different than a Quad I would just go back to a 35/65 setup.
  3. Not a good look for True or their customer service.
  4. Show me the data that backs that up.
  5. I'm guessing that they don't perceive any performance gain over a composite 2-piece boot. The fact that almost 75% of NHL Players are skating in 2-piece boots between Bauer and CCM might back that up. After all they could easily introduce a monocoque boot if they wanted to seeing they bought the Mako skate.
  6. I'm curious as to what CCM's long term plan is for STEP? STEP doesn't come in any retail skate currently and my guess is that they probably have large inventories of their retail steel, which IMO is some of the worst steel out there. To be fair Bauer's stainless and LS1 is crappy too. As previously commented the majority of customers only care that there's steel on their skates.
  7. Agree on all these points and would add the tendon guard to your list...
  8. Not to mention IMO one of the worst holders ever....
  9. Carbon Curv is only currently on the Ultrasonic and 2X Pro.
  10. Partial, not full....readily discernible if you pull the footbed outs on senior size skates. I've played in every top tiered Supreme skate dating back to the One90. Huge difference when I went from 1S to 2S Pro.
  11. Going to disagree. I would compare the 3S Pro to be more like the 1S minus the the outsole (1S had a full composite).
  12. 3S Pro replaced the 2S in the Supreme line.
  13. You would think they'd have a better equipment manager...
  14. Nice...How's the balance?
  15. Both are performance palms and thin. I've had both and prefer mustang as digital on top of grip sticks is too grippy for me. Neither will be durable though.
  16. Wow, you know a Bauer rep. I'm impressed...
  17. No, changes to the toecap didn't occur until the Ultrasonic. I didn't notice a volume difference, just that the 1S fit bigger.
  18. You're going to have different opinions on this. Without knowing whether they're were any changes made to the last (and I don't see why they would have) the fit should be relatively the same. I went down a half size when going from the MX3 to the 1S. I attributed this to the extremely thin MX3 tongue and the more traditional 52 ounce tongue on the 1S.
  19. Not seeing the "x-ribs" we've seen in previous models.
  20. Specs seem to be on par with Bauer's and CCM's top tiered sticks....
  21. It's all about finding the most shallow hollow that allows you to control your edges and maximize glide. Using too deep a hollow requires more energy to push off, leading to quicker muscle fatigue.
  22. If she is really a true EE fit I doubt you will find any wide TF9's at Pure Hockey.
  23. 3S Pro has first generation Curv and the Ultrasonic has second generation Curv (Carbon Curv). Carbon Curv is stiffer. The tongue on the Ultrasonic is much better than what was on the 2S Pro. Not as stiff and flexes nicely. The tongue on the 3S Pro is somewhat close to that of a traditional Supreme felt and IMO makes the 3S Pro close to the feel of what the 1S was. How long a skate lasts depends on several factors such as skaters weight, how often they skate, and how well they take care of their skates. My 2 year old 2S Pros were structurally just as stiff after 2 years of use skating 5 times/week. Disclaimer: I remove the footbeds and dry them on a boot dryer after every skate.
