Killer job on that set, buddy. Looking forward to skating your wing when I get back to Toronto!

2013 Bauer Hockey Catalogue

Curious to see if the new eyelet orientation adds a bit of unintentional volume. -
If you just got it the other day, then send it in for warranty.

Once you feel the nut's seated, give it another quarter turn. Always found Tuuk holders pretty easy to overtighten.
-
Wouldn't be surprised if your steel was overtightened or put under any undue stress, especially if it broke in the same spot on both runners. I've been on Step for almost three years and haven't had a single problem.

The "in Europe" part made me laugh.

Chalk it up to bad luck, then. Happens to the best of us!

Hope you've still got your receipt.

I haven't been following this thread for a while because I moved overseas for work, but I've been back in Toronto on vacation for the month and have resumed my old Pro Shop post to kill some time. I'm actually quite astounded by the number of people who have really hopped aboard the FBV train. I'd say over 1/3rd of all sharpenings coming through the shop have been FBV. Several of my regular customers who I tried talking into using FBV over ROH before I left the country are still using it. Now since I fly back to the UK at the end of the month and will be seeing ice 3 times a week this coming year, I'm kinda worried about not being able to get my 90/75 anywhere due to availability... Anybody have any idea of where FBV might be done in England? :S

But there are guys in the NHL who have retail graphics on their twigs. Not many, but some.

AND you were careful enough to edit your post! Shows commitment to self-improvement, right there.

Yeah, that makes sense, JR. I guess our store looks at sharpening as more of a labour-based charge, and for the most part I agree. Like I said, FBV doesn't require me doing any extra work aside from dressing the wheel. We've got more and more customers coming in asking for it now though, so maybe head office will catch on and bump up the price of FBV. Maybe they were waiting to see if the technology was a wash before they tagged a couple more bucks to it.
