    The original Vector 110, 120 and 130 were not fused blade jobs. They were composites sticks made the same way a wood stick is. Pressed into a joint with a composite blade. That is what that wrap around the hosel on that 10k is.

    Got my X02 today - took a bit to get used to because I am coming from full machines - called Blackstone a couple of times at the risk of sounding like an idiot LOL... But I just did a few sets of spare holders I had in the garage and I'm starting to dial it in really good. Sharpens with ease and once I harness it and get some supplies, the finish is going to be amazing.

    Yeah, they have renamed multiple pattterns several times over. But I guess the point I was trying to make is that P88 was around longer than PM9, and never had a name change.
  4. JR Boucicaut
    I'm expecting it to. If Easton was able to rename their top pattern twice, so can Bauer.

    Not to mention wide skates.

    More popular than here. The mfrgs know what they are doing when they release shafts and 110 flex sticks over there and not here.

    X01 isn't out yet, so everyone who has a portable has an X02. I think if you are doing 4 pr of skates a week, you're better suited for the X01. However, the FBV could catch on and you may be finding yourself doing more, so that's something to consider.

    E-Pro won't be in stores til the spring anyway. Notice the E-Pro retail is the glove with the 4 rolls and the skinny cuff roll. I believe all custom gloves coming out of Canada now will have the E-Pro tag on it, but will come in all styles, including the SyNergy 800 style and whatever variation of Z-Air.

    Guys, quit quoting pictures, PLEASE. I answered his question - it is a 10k that is made like a Vector. Simple answer.
  10. JR Boucicaut
    I guess you would call it Reebok 10V Vector construction.
  11. JR Boucicaut
    Judging by the fact that the shaft market is very slow in NA, no. If they wanted to release it here, they would've.

    Next season, the new stick will be out at Pro by Training Camp

    Flagship name, just like Sher-Wood Coffey.

    New liner on the 4-Roll

    Oh, scan-wise...thought you were dogging my review. I guess my scanner doesn't like the S11. Didn't realize I missed that page again.
  17. JR Boucicaut
    Missed what? I'm merely highlighting what is new, S11 isn't new.

    I agree with Peter - was not impressed one bit by the E-Pro. I'm not a dealer anymore, but my assumption is that the colorways in the E-Pro are MTO and prob have to be ordered at booking. Now, keep in mind that the custom glove will still be available, min 6.
  19. JR Boucicaut
    I may have a set for ya.
  20. JR Boucicaut
    None? OctoGun has similar features (bladder mold, same taper length) but not much after that.
  21. JR Boucicaut
    It wasn't available for me to see it. I said I will comment on it when I go to Vegas.
  22. JR Boucicaut
    Where exactly did I say the 10K shaft was the same as the 7K, because I'm not seeing that in my post. The 10k DOES replace the 7k in the lineup. And if you see my reviews, I tend to stay away from using technobabble and buzzwords. Yes. That skate has never done well for them anyway.
  23. JR Boucicaut
    No, Octo Gun is a new stick.
  24. JR Boucicaut
    Deluxe has nothing to do with grip and everything to do with shaft length. It is 6" longer from the normal. Stiffness, durability, but feel could be a tradeoff.
  25. JR Boucicaut
    Developed internally. What people are forgetting is that the first innovation was the Spinner system - totally different method of dressing the sharpening wheel. Without Spinner, FBV wouldn't have been possible.
