    Wow. That’s huge. I know I should be 175 or so on the charts but it’s really too low for me and i don’t think i have the willpower to do it anyway.

    Having been as high as 254 and as low as 194 I know how much hard work and dedication this takes. Congrats!!!! (Currently at 209 hoping to take off 8-10)

    Last Sunday had to rush my 10.9 month old Goldendoodle, Wylie, to the vet hospital for emergency surgery. He had a tumor on his spleen that was removed and then we found out a twisted stomach. He is recovering really well from surgery but just found out that the biopsy report revealed he has cancer. We see the oncologist on Thursday but it looks like around 9 months with treatment. Very sad day. Love that dog.

    The bigger ones. You can trim I’d needed but you’ll need the width. When JR did my customs (Nexus V-cut 8EE) we went to larger Superfeef.

    I am one of the people you would say is "anti-true" and I posted no such thing - in fact I seconded West Side Skate as the place to go for his fitting. All we did is make a fair accounting of the issues that have been reported. And if you read the last few pages in the thread you will see them posted by True owners themselves.

    I was at the Islanders retail shop in the practice rink the other day talking to the manager - I know him for many years. He was telling me that tons and tons of skates get tuned back by players. And these are all custom. And you know which one had the most returns....????

    As the owner of custom Bauer skates I will echoe @JunkyardAthletic It took work to dial them in. Pain, punches and preserveareance. But the work was worth it and they are now far better than any retail skate could ever be. And I’d also bet, dollars to donuts, better than Trues.

    I coached kids for about 10 years and always felt y job was first and foremost to give every player an experience they enjoyed and second that they grew up a bit and earned about themselves and the game. To that end I always made it a habit to make sure minutes were evenly distributed. As the kids got older the only caveat was if we were trying to win a playoff game we might make some power play or penalty kill choices late in a game but thats about it. To me if I played weaker kids at the end of a game down a man early in the season than they knew I trusted them and they learned to to do it when we really needed them to late in the season. That type of growth is priceless.

    Thats great!!! Keep up the healthy path! Once you get there you should look into Isagenix. 2 shakes a day, healthy dinner. Cleanse/Fast twice a month for two days each.
  16. beerleaguecaptain
    wow... may I ask what you are doing? I did Isagenix and it was amazing... gotta get back to it.
  17. beerleaguecaptain
    Lunges, squats, dry land training with sprints and shuttle runs! I expect you faster than greased lightning by SJ!!!
  18. beerleaguecaptain
    I agree with you. Most beer league players dont have the awareness to be in that position or the speed to get up and down.
  19. beerleaguecaptain
    we try to keep the wingers up on the point and let the center work down low. The guys that understand positioning better, when they play wing (weak side away from puck), will drop to the high slot and allow the center to double team the puck down low.

    At 10 years old my best advice to you is to transition him to a mid level big brand skate that will be around for a while... he will get used to it. He's 10!!!

    Been around here for along time and at my age I’ve learned some important lessons in life. One of them is that people who call others names aren’t worth my time.
  22. beerleaguecaptain
    see above... not an error. They are using masking tape to support the footbed. I just don't get how that stands up over time.
  23. beerleaguecaptain
    Ok, have to jump in... MASKING TAPE???? LOL... No... seriously... BAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
  24. beerleaguecaptain
    Actually I'm on vacation this week... but fair enough and I do appreciate your participation. I've said my piece. I'm not trying to knock the skate. I just think too many have drank the kool aide and need to be more objective. I'm done with the debate. Bored.
  25. beerleaguecaptain
    @Zac911, was anything added to the footbed?
