I noticed, I was just more interested in the 709s. :)
-
Probably because it gives people different options which is bad for companies with the price of today's gear. ;) Varioflex is still available on their high-end figure skates, just not for hockey. I'm slowly convincing myself that Graf is the wrong way to go for custom skates. I may spend the extra money and time to weasel my way into a pair of 8090-esque S9's, or a custom Flexlite or something. I wish my LHS dealt with Mission...
-
I love those 1st-generation 709s... gorgeous, gorgeous skates. I wonder if I could make that Varioflex system part of my custom order... heh.
-
No, the point of the S9 is to tease me with the prospect of an 8090 that I can't get. Damn juniors and their equipment managers... :(
-
Oh dear god... :)

JR's going to get a call from Gretzky, asking to borrow his shank for amission of mercy...
-
Any chance you could show off the curve/lie of those Warrior Ott's?
-
Love the Christian goalie sticks, and that Heaton Brodeur too. I've still got a Belfour Christian tha's in perfect shape - after twelve years! It's tje ultimate backup stick.

B)--> QUOTE(Tyler B @ Oct 19 2007, 10:40 PM) ←yeah i got them at sportchek. they gave me 10% off cause i went there last night. bettween source for sports and sportchek i had 3 differnt skates on order for my size. They said they didnt have my size in and would phone me later if they could still find a pair in my size they would order them. They never phoned so this morning i called them and the guy said they must have not looked hard enough cause he had a pair in his hand at that exact moment. So the guy gave me 10% off because we could have got them yesterday. they sharpened tehm for me and what nto as well, shittiest sharpening ever aswell and they guys look when i said 1/2" hollow was priceless. lol hahaha - I love that look. It's even better when I ask random shops for 3/8" hollow as a goalie, and I actually get "Hhuuurrgghh?" in reply. "Oh, nevermind, I'll take them to my normal spot."
-
Yep - saw them in there last weekend when I was getting some extra runner-nuts for my RBK cowlings. Guy said it was one of their best selling SMUs - people love the old Tacks last. Now I just need someone to do an SMU 8090... :)
-
IIRC, nylon really intensely dislikes submersion.
-
Heh, that team's gotta be the envy of the league with their holders done up. Did you personalise or do them all the same?
-
Love it, love it, love it! :) I'm going to have to try this RIT-dye thing some day. I'm still paranoid about it coming off on the underside of my pads, but I'd love to do that LAX-head fade-dye by dipping the cowlings in the dye, in-and-out for a few hours. For now, I continue to look desperately for 8090s in my size... :(
-
Gorgeous, gorgeous skates... I could never get my foot halfway into a Vapor, but you can't argue with craftsmanship. Incredibly, there are still some Sportchek stores around Toronto that have stock of brand new Vapor 10's -- I saw them in my questing for Flexlites. Thanks for the help on my holder dilemma, by the way. I'm still dithering on Pitch or Cobra - I know the Pitch's are all-around superior, but since nobody around here stocks them, I'll probably go with the Cobras.
-
Just a plain old Simmons Matrix matched set. :) He's also just about to get beat five-hole or low-glove - hehe.

What the hell... here's a shot of me at a recent goalie clinic, using a pair of incredibly nice TPS Summit/R8 hybrid gloves loaned to me by The Other JR (Roons) from The Goalie Crease: (Wellsie has nothin'. ;))
