    Today was a good day..

    I am in love with these. The design is a little strange and I didn't think it would work but my god did they nail it. They don't slide down my arm like Jofa/Rbk 9144/7ks.

    I have the 800's with the extended slash guard, love them aswell. They fit great.

    Nice! I got socks there a few years ago from the store. My wife was like "You are buying used socks?" lol she could not understand why I was so excited. I got a pair of gloves last year for Fathers Day too. Prices were not bad at all. Do they still have a lot of stuff in the store?

    they had probably twenty sticks, one95's,one90's, a mike webber totalone, couple Sher wood nexeons (spelling?), eq50's, and some warrior dt's and some Boyes APX shafts. They had probably 10 pair of gloves leino's warriors, roy's eastons, tallinders four rolls, and some reebok four rolls. Saw some warrior hustler pants and eastons. Overall decent selection for not being an equipment sale.

    I've thought about upgrading to these myself. They look pretty nice. There's just a few things that bug me about them.

    One, is the EPP foam hard like the Easton RS pads, or is it an "active" (flexible) foam? I'd be more inclined to look at the Nexus 600 series if they are indeed like the RS. Two, the vents on the front, do they actually channel air into the pad or are they purely cosmetic?

    I'll probably be making a trip to MonkeySports in the near future to find this stuff out for myself, but I thought I'd ask, anyway.

    The EPP is very flexible, it forms to the back of your calf when it's strapped on. It's flexible because it doesn't have the plastic plate covering the padding like the RS does.

    The vents are pretty large; they seem like they would help a lot in the drying process, but I'm not sure about air flow during games if that's what you're asking. I haven't gotten the chance to skate with them yet.

    Picked these up today at Great Skate. I have never really liked Bauer's protective lineup, I always preferred Reebok/Jofa but i was intrigued when i saw the nexus lineup in the catalog, knowing i would be in the market for new shins this summer. Very impressed though they feel solid and i really like the strap system.

    so they fixed the javelin glitch but made a few other new ones? sigh....

    i did have something happen yesterday which seemed strange - i caught a guy off guard and killed him quickly but then i died from a grenade he apparently dropped - i dont see how he could have switched from his gun and did that so quick, i mean he didnt even know i was there.. maybe luck but i suspected some kind of hack

    That's a deathstreak where you drop a live grenade when you die. Another thing I'm seeing is little pricks hiding with a friend and shooting the friend 25 times so they get the nuke and ruin the game for everyone else. Very annoying. If I was in a game with somone with that automatic noob tube I wouldve snapped. I hate noob tubes to begin with.

    my buddy's at gamestop and he just sent me this text "theres a guy here who has the number one spot for the game at midnight and he got here at noon, he has a briefcase with a tv mounted in the top and his 360 at the bottom hooked up to a battery pack and wifi adapter and is hyperventilating with excitement and is saying he is going to use the restaurant next doors wifi to play...wow" i was laughing so hard when i read that

    +1 on the thermablade shit, they disappeared real fast.

    Well, would you pay that much for something that doesnt work?

    I'm just saying that they lost all the hype that they had. I remember how they had Gretzky endorsing it and in the last year it all just dissappeared.
