Based on the fact that they are already being dumped, the Octogun line of sticks from CCM should qualify as a bust.Technology is still there. There will be a U+ Octogun coming out....
held one today. the OctoGun part seemed thinner and subtler than the other models I had seen. Didn't get to shoot with it though.
-
the fact that the "washout" was only on one edge makes me think it was a bad sharpening. could be wrong though.

They are now. Believe 4/1 was the change date.I asked Bauer customs dept about that and the rep said that they will not be available for custom until Dec 1. This was a few weeks ago. I have to ask her a few things, but the woman I usually deal with is on vacation, so I'll ask her Monday.

One95s have a stock C width, the x60s will not.

I need to get me a back-up pair of steel. I'm skating on nitinol blades which uses a different wheel. My players like the FBV, but I can't try it out yet b/c of my blades. farking eye.

It took FOREVER to get the Lube Tube working. changed the dauber a few times. Had to smack it a bunch to get even a drop on the blade. Finish is MUCH better now.

I know one of my spinners has markings on it, but I think the FBV spinner does not. If it does it is reallly small! :lol:I will make sure I am putting stamped side down.
all mine came marked except the 1/2, which was on the machine when I got it. I had a 3/8, 5/8, 100/70, & 90/70.
One problem I had initially was that the screw was putting too much pressure on the spinners so when I went to dress it it wouldn't spin. Blackstone was really helpful. I had to clamp down part of the screw to alleviate the pressure from the spring. After a while it worked out.
It's taking a bit to get used to the diminished counter space especially with some size 13 Grafs!!
Right now I haven't had too much time to get the boys used to the FBV so hopefully this weekend I will be able to talk to some of them and get them trying it out.
Good returns on the 1/2, 5/8, and 3/8 so far though.

I think that X60 logo is hideous.I concur. Also noticed it's still "NikeBauer".
-
I would imagine
x60=XXXX
x50=XXV
x40=XXII

Jarick - it will fit like a Vapor, but not necessarily the last one. It's 60 for a reason.I'm going to guess that it will be an amped up "continuation" of the old Vapor 10s.
New numbering makes a lot of sense, as they've used up way too many Roman numerals.
How did the old Vapors fit compared to the current ones?
XXXX made more sense than XL at the time, but x60 makes more sense tan XXXXX, XXXXXX and LX
after a while those Xs started to look like DNA.

CCM Vector BOAs. Not sure about you, but we couldn't give those things away.

Hocks.The offset blade was originally called UB Offset - Gene Ubriaco invented it.
Someone covered me on the Tuuk V2.
For those unfamiliar:
we get about one person a month trying to find them. thanks.

There was one simple solution for Harpoon - take the cross-grinding wheel to it and shave off the fins. After that, just put glue and you're good.To this day I was NEVER able to pop off a Harpoon. My boy Shawn was a pro at it.
we had about 100-150 of the Harpoon tape/sandpaper sets at work. We took them out and just use them for butt ends and blades now when we have to. At least they serve some sort of purpose today.
