  1. I'm gonna go with.... different factory in China???
  2. yeah... you've eliminated the variable and gotten some good advice. Maybe try a profile with more flat.....
  3. Yes, I use them. I found that by molding them myself I was able to get a better fit than the skate fenders. Protection is just as good. I have had both.
  4. Some questions... same ice surface? Same outdoor temps? Do you use a honing stone in between games? Lots of variables at work here.
  5. Nash Skate Wrap https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/60df1b6eefc93d19b2954c0b/60f03072f1038625f55ec16c_Nash 2021 No Prices Catalog.pdf
  6. I'd love that!! Adding a 20th skater to my roster! #beerleaguedomination #signeveryplayer
  7. Dammit if I don't make that look soooooo good!!!! 😀 Nice job on the pics Jon. We beat their asses 10-4~!
  8. It just takes time getting used to wearing gear. Its not one thing or another... it's just different. Keep at it. You will be ok.
  9. Take a look at these.... I've been using them for years. https://www.amazon.com/Vitalsox-Italy-Patented-Compression-VT1211-Large/dp/B004BKIPW0?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
  10. I had a similar experience when I tried to go from softer skates to composite. Frankly I think they were too stiff for me. @puckpilot might be on the right track with this.
  11. Keep working at it!!!! I'be scared to be off my thinners too... scary shit. (5 stents)
  12. Best of luck on your recovery. I had arthroscopic labral repair and the bone shaved down so thats nothing like what you are going through. Keep us posted.
  13. That was given to the Bauer rep. by @JR Boucicaut
  14. I am exactly the same... @JR Boucicaut got me to try FBV and profiling and now I'm hooked like a crack addict.
  15. Like anything else I will reserve judgement until I get to feel it on the ice. The conjecture is kinda silly IMHO. Blackstone has a reputation as an industry leader and they are clearly aware that things are moving in the direction of being automated. I think this all bodes well for the product. I am intrigued.
  16. One of the reasons I will ride my Nexus V-cuts (Tech Mesh) into their grave is that skates today are too stiff. I need that forward flex and when I have demoed the newer, ultra stiff skates, I can't skate in them at all.
  17. Happy B-Day 2021!!! Thanks @JR Boucicaut for all you do! Cant wait to see everyone soon!
  18. That is horrific and so sad and, in my opinion a freak injury. I'd venture a guess that this is a very rare occurrence and also that anyone in your league shooting the puck wouldn't be able to shoot that hard anyway. There are other things to worry about. The 150 is an excellent helmet as well.
