  1. Having to get my diesel truck smogged. What a scam.
  2. Yeah, they're new. I've tried all of the other spinners, and I like the 100/50 so far. I just wish it had a little less edge to it. The 90/75 doesn't have quite enough edge for me. I'm hoping that these new spinners will bridge the gap between the 100/50 and the 90/75.

  4. If I were you, I would just stick with standard sharpenings for now. You really won't get to utilize the benefits of FBV until you are very comfortable on skates.
  5. I like that idea. If that team won't police their own, then screw 'em.
  6. He has done things that have contributed to peace. But has he done enough to warrant the prize? I just dont see it. I tend to think that prize is won with specific actions or work in a specific area or problem, with specific positive results. I think this was awarded on a "feel good" basis. But hey, I dont think this prize has all that much credibility anymore......I mean cmon.....Gore and Arafat? LOL He was President for eleven whole days before the Nobel nomination deadline. There must have been something he did in those eleven days that was worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. :lol:
  7. Jordan your right. We try to convert the FBV's but it is hard to compare because there is a different feel. Tailboard these are a bit closer to how people feel on the different FBV shapes. I concur, Steve. I've tried all four of those, and stayed with the 100/50. It was the closest I could find to the 1/2" roh I was used to, but the glide with the FBV is phenomenal. I'm definitely a believer in the FBV.
  8. 100/75 fbv = 3/8" roh 100/50 fbv = 5/8" roh 90/75 fbv = 3/4" roh 90/50 fbv = 1 1/8" roh
  9. I wouldn't pass to anybody who taps their stick, anyway. So it wouldn't bother me. It is pretty lame, though.
  10. Try the 100/50. I had the same problem you had. 100/75 fbv = 3/8" roh 100/50 fbv = 5/8" roh 90/75 fbv = 3/4" roh 90/50 fbv = 1 1/8" roh

  12. I thought there were only four: 90/50, 90/75, 100/50, and 100/75. What is the 5th spinner?
  13. I just got my custom Warrior Hustler pants this morning. I got them with +2" in length, and I've never had a pair of hockey pants fit me this perfectly. They are also much lighter than my RBK 9K pants. I am very impressed. I can't wait to play with them on Thursday. I'm going to try to post a pic of them later today.
  14. Nice Hustlers, NoFear. What mods did you get on them? Is that the standard length?
  15. I hate you. :D Mine won't ship for another month. Post some pics.
  16. my understanding is that 100/75 from the bite angle alone is closer to 3/8 - not 1/2 just check yourself @ http://www.flatbottomv.com/technical_data.pdf Yeah, according to the FBV chart: 100/75 fbv = 3/8" roh 100/50 fbv = 5/8" roh 90/75 fbv = 3/4" roh 90/50 fbv = 1 1/8" roh
  17. Why can't you do it back? Isn't it drop-in? No referee. And, he's obviously trying to break your sticks. He continues to do it because you allow it to happen. There's no reason in the world to put up with that shit. I don't care how big the guy is...you have a stick, too. Give him some of his own medicine.
