  1. Product- Nike V10 Elbow pads Background- 5'6 150 pounds, centre/rightwing Use of product- 10 months of use Fit- Very comfortable elbow pads, the only thing I would change would be to make them a little deeper. The first few times it felt like my elbow wasn’t sitting right in the pad. It’s only slipped once after falling, but I did get a bruise. 8/10 Protection- Besides it slipping, I’ve never been hurt wearing these elbows. 9/10 Weight- Pretty light, don’t really notice that I’m wearing them now. 10/10 Durability- No rips or tears still in awesome shape. 10/10 Intangibles- I chose these instead of the Jofas because they were cheaper. Once they are worn in they’re the best elbow pads ever. I tried my brothers Jofa 9135s for 1 game and they aren’t near as comfortable as the Nikes. 10/10 Conclusion- Great elbow pads, I’ll probably stick with Nike for elbow unless I can find a pad with a deeper fit and with the same comfort. The liner feels great on them; they are really popular around here too. Overall Rating: 9.4 (average)
  2. I still think the gloves from the Easton custom program are their nicest gloves. I'm glad my LHS ordered them for their shop I plan on buying them when my Eagles are shot. I'm wondering though, why the 800s have the coil and the 900s don't?Or atleast that's what it says in the catalogue.

    Eagle X50i

    Product- Eagle X50i 13†gloves Background- 5'6 150 pounds, centre/rightwing Use of product- 1 ½ months 4 ice times/week Fit- Not as loose as the X70 model which I had previously. Took a while to break in because of the split fingers but now they have lots of mobility and feel great. 9/10 Protection- Decent protection, doesn’t have plastic inserts or a lock thumb like the newer high-end gloves but it’s been enough so far playing midget rep. The cuff is a little short but I have big elbow pads so it’s alright. I did bruise my wrist once after taking 2 consecutive hits to the boards but I doubt any other glove would have prevented that. 7.5/10 Weight- One of the lightest gloves I’ve had, only glove that would be much lighter would have to be made of nylon. 9/10 Durability- Eagle gloves have awesome durability. They’ve been used for about a month of 4 ice times/week and the glove is mint. The palms are a little crispy but that’s not a big deal. I air them out every ice time and I expect the palms will last for a while. 10/10 Intangibles- I love the look of these gloves. They’re an older model X50i with a hologram on the cuff that just looks awesome. 9/10 Conclusion- I got these gloves at a consignment store new for 55$ CAD so I decided to try them out. I’m glad I did because in stores they’re about $150, and I wouldn’t pay that much for a glove without split fingers and plastic inserts. This has been my 2nd pair of Eagle gloves (first was x70) and they have been outstanding in durability. Overall Rating: 8.9 (average)
  4. That's ok, I'm waring a Graf hat. I have a graf bag :)
  5. I used a webcam and its kinda messed.
  6. I have the same gloves as you, the eagle thing on the cuff is crazy. Edit:pics I'm either getting a Rbk 8K helmet or Itech hc95/100 helmet, depends which fits better, and maybe some M-1s gloves off ebay because my brother borrowed my Easton Pro stocks and now they're ripped up.

  17. They fit differently than the other supreme skates, and differently from vapour skates. The fit is based on the Mega-90 (I think my dad has an old pair in the garage).
  18. The 8090s are awesome, I like the toe cap, the graf toe cap was just to narrow for me on the W. I find that on the 8090s if I don't lace them up the exact way I like it they start to hurt on the side, but after I re-lace them they feel like slippers.
  19. Ewwwwwwwwwww ST Grip green :( How are you like'n that stick? I was thinking of either getting that or the SL. NIce Inno by the way lol all my teammates and coaches actually like the colour :D . I can't really compare the ST to another synergy because I've never used one before. Definately like it more than my Synthesis though,but it'll be my backup after the Inno.
  20. If the rink is so small do you still play 5 on 5?
  21. My GearMy sticks,skates, and gloves....all retail except for my pro stock easton gloves.
  22. Are the x70i mustang glvoes already out? I thought it was supposed to be Spring '05 but I swear I saw them at my lhs
  23. On the site it just asks for the quantity though, so do you have to email/phone them to get the right size?
