Honestly, that was just like I said... my first thought. I have used 3 different XXXlite sticks and never liked one. None of them had the checkerboard weave... At this point I avoid the XXXlite like the plague, why bother looking at something you already know you dont like? it's just a custom stick. whenever you go to NBH stick id you can go stickum etc with textile(checkerboard) or whatever combination you want. it's just custom XXX stick, not a XXXX

I always check my sharpening. I wipe off any steel shavings the might have remained and see if the steel is hot. My regular sharpener always watches me give it a once over awaiting a "thanks" or "beautiful" approval. Be proud that guys can look over your work in front of you and not find anything wrong with it. yeah i can understand what you mean. maybe i'm just impatient. I get compliments at my rink for some of the best sharpenings and also being peoples "go to guy" for their skates. I mis-worded it a little bit and maybe myself sound a bit retarded.

thats true. i just have people that tell me how to do my job sometimes that don't know what there talking about.

haha nice post. at the LHS i work at we have many of dumb people. I had a man try to bring back a RBK 5k snakegrip and tell me it was defective and he demanded a refund. All because of a small piece of fiber that was chipped on the toe from regular play. He showed me on the stick that it said "30 DAY WARRANTY". I replied back with a smile "from the company sir" I had for the first time ever last weekend during a college game that a college team from NY knocked over a whole stick rack. It was like Mighty Ducks. I also can't stand when people who check my sharpenings like they know what there looking at or feeling on the steel.

how does one get felt tongues on skates ? I want them on my s11's or 1500c's that im going to be getting. I work at a Pro shop, should I just contact the dealer?
