Any tips on how to get better heel lock? I was thinking about rebaking the skates and squeezing the heel. I also though about trying Ezee fit booties or something similar.

See I am lucky my future MIL takes my side over my fiancé every time. She does the same with my future brother in law. She has always taken the men's side over the woman side. But what do you do when your fiance and your mother don't agree? WW3?

See I said no flowers for the guys and then my fiancé, my fiancé's mother and my mom all looked at me and told me I was crazy and that we will be wearing flowers. I wasn't going to put up an argument over something so dumb as guys pinning a flower to their jacket not worth my time or effort.

Smart. We are more or less done with all the big stuff/ important stuff. We are getting married october 3rd so now its just the little things. The thing that sent me over the edge was we went and did the flowers this passed weekend and we are saving a ton of money by only having people in the wedding wear them no extravagant center pieces or anything like that. So we booked a corsage for the mothers to wear and then my mom talked to my cousin and my cousin said "corsages are old school tell him you want a nosegay" To which I reply "WTF is a nosegay?" and apparently its a smaller bouquet than a bridesmaid bouquet. Now I personally do not care what my mom wears/ carries doesn't carry, but I know my fiancé won't like the idea. The other part that bothers me is this wasn't even talked about until after we booked them and if it was such a big deal then why was it not talked about prior to booking. Now the florist is my best friends mom and a simple phone call can change the order slightly however its getting my fiancé and mom both on board with the same idea thats the challenge. haha thanks chad that made me laugh. Thanks for the tip on a troubleshooter. My fiancé and I are pretty go with the flow type of people myself more than her. I don't really care and don't get overly worked up about stuff. We have a relatively small guest list compared to other family weddings I have been to so that helps. MThockeydad aint it the truth. Yes woman are crazy. It is really nice that my dad and I understand each other. I already told him to tell my mom to stop talking to my cousin about my wedding and just show up and enjoy it. And 30 years from now you won't remember the stuff you didn't like about it. I am very excited for pre wedding festivities. My brother and friends have planned exactly want I wanted for a bachelor party which is just a beach house with a BBQ. I want very low key nothing too crazy. Thanks everyone for the support. Its nice to have this.

Thanks for that. Its really just my mom that is driving me nuts. She thinks my cousin knows everything there is to know about weddings and every time she talks to her she calls me and says "your cousin said..." I always respond with " Okay thanks I will put it in the suggestion box". Eventually I will get a phone call from my dad telling me to stop being an ass to her. Its frustrating because if I take the side of my mom my fiancé and I argue and she calls me a mommas boy and if I take the side of my fiancé my mom gets all pissed and then my dad calls me. At least my dad and I understand each other and I can talk to him like a normal person where I have to sometimes where kid gloves with my mom. If you need someone to chat with too feel free to send me a PM as well. BTW I grew up in Long Island and my fiancé is from the country in upstate NY so this is culture shock my mom is going to have to realize. Optimus as always thanks for contributing I guess

Wedding planning. Everyone says this is suppose to be the happiest time in your life. I am still waiting for the happy part. It doesn't help that we are from two totally different families either.

Finally got my RPD Teams out there last night. They felt great. It was the first time in over 10 years I played roller in rink and not on a tennis court. It is so much different than ice. I defiantly need to play around with the lacing the next time I play. The laces that came with them are defiantly way too long. I really cranked down on them causing some lace bite after the first hour or so to compensate for a softer boot than I'm used to. It also could have been the tape I used so the laces didn't drag. I will switch to the howies waxed I usually use. I also got a blister on the inside of each heel, but I think thats because it was so hot. My feet where so sweaty by the end of it. I didn't notice the rubbing untill after an hour or more of playing. Once I relearned how to stop it was great. The puck does not glide as nicely as on ice and they are obviously so much lighter that I had to adjust my shots for it. Can't wait for next thursday.

just ordered another set of bearings for my outdoor wheels. I don't plan on playing much indoor inline, but I would love to keep the millenniums in good shape incase I change my mind. Hoping to post my picture for the contest this weekend.

Playing goalie in a pick up game for the first time since I was 12. Had a blast only let in 3 goals too.

8D in supreme 190s and just bought 8.5 in RPD Team Just baked them yesterday I could not believe the wrap I got out of them. My first thought when pulling them out of the box was they are a very boxy skate. I wasn't worried because I have read about easy they are to mold, but I didn't think it would be that much. Pleasantly surprised. Can't wait to use them.

just received my RPD Team skates in the mail. Unfortunately I won't be able to use them till the spring time when the snow melts and when one of the local ice rinks turns into a roller hockey rink. I haven't played inline hockey since Mission was sizing their skates in US sizes. Heres to hoping my parents didn't get rid of all my roller pants. Big thanks to Justin for helping me with the size.

is there a market for fake pro stock edge socks? Not that I care I paid the average price for them. They where still cheaper then retail edge socks too.
-
yeah not really sure my first pair of pro stock socks or anything for that matter. I remember when the edge stuff first came out the practice socks all had white going down the back of them in that V shape and maybe even a little lower.
-
picked up a pair of pro stock black edge socks from ebay the other day. They are nothing special, but they are my first pro stock purchase

Picked up an MX3 yesterday

Had to rush my dog to emergency animal hospital after my game on friday night. I was pretty sure she had kennel cough but my fiancé said she threw up 10 times while I was gone. She is doing fine now though with the antibiotics and seems better. She did cost me my MX3 stick though. I also sliced open my thumb sharpening skates yesterday. All in all a pretty great weekend.
-
Someone on the other team had a photographer at my game on Friday so these pictures where passed along to me. #12 In white. maybe I should tighten my chin strap a bit?
