Similar but the hosel was much shorter. you could have some luck with tapered combos that are still around. https://hoapahockey.com/products/ps1-shaft?variant=17964471255111

Replacing a Mission Inhaler helmet, suggestions
Buzz_LightBeer replied to wickedslappah's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
A 5100 or Re-Akt-75 should fit similarly with comparable, maybe slightly less protection. Inhaler was back in the HC100 days from Itech, or was it the Intake(?) and iirc they produced Mission branded Bauer helmets for a few years after, with a Re-Akt style single point adjustment shell i want to say. If you're able to wear a small, HM has huge discounts on Resistance helmets as well -
I don't care if they put a layer of Unobtanium between the adhesive and the finish layer, if they say to replace it after 10 uses, it's moot people that have used blade tape in the past had them last for months, I’m still skeptical of the benefit of these.

It’s similar, I was going to call it skateboard deck tape, like 220 grit sandpaper
-
Newer models also have 80 flex now which is clutch

https://www.hockeyworld.com/CCM-Jetspeed-FT4-Hockey-Stick-Sr Perani's lists the FT4 in stock

1 “pack” consists of 2 forehand and 2 backhand pieces. So only slightly less ridiculous
-
I picked up two yesterday to fool around with, planned on putting a review together. My first impression is underwhelming. The presentation is nice, but to be honest, I had anticipated it being permanent (at least to the life of the stick) but the packaging recommends replacing it after 8-10 sessions.

Not specifically, but just trolling PSH, Schwartz, Giordano, Bennet and Brodie seem to be in that realm

A few pros use something like that. Jaden Schwartz comes to mind

Difficulty installing XS holder on True Custom Skates
Buzz_LightBeer replied to eugene8080's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Are they; A- trying to use the same holes without drilling new? B- trying to install the holders with steel taken out? That would be the most likely culprit imo. when I swap holders, I mark the center of where I want the holder front and back. I use 2 strips of 3M thick double sided tape to hold the holder in place so I can readjust. The tape holds the chassis in place while you drill a stabilizing hole front and back. That should get the holder attached straight and square for finishing drilling. If for some reason the bottom of the boot and top of the holder aren’t square a small shim may take up the needed space -
Where’s a CCM F•I•T machine when you need one?
-
True is offering P90T at retail next year, in one model
-
Yes, but not so easy to come by. HCR is True
-
They had two stick lines at the time, the RS was the true low kick elliptical shaft stick, and I would take issue with them calling the Mako a low kick comparatively. based on weight and shaft shape, I’d personally avoid the Ultra Sonic, Sling, Geo or Hyperlite. Find a 2S or 2N or similar and in my opinion you’d find a stick more similar to the original Mako outside of Bauer, the A5.2 from True might be something you’d like as well
-
If I’m remembering right the OG mako was still a fused stick so in that regard no current Bauer’s would be like it. but it was a mid-high kick so I’d probably try a Supreme, 2S/3S or similar. I’d avoid top end Bauer’s, go with the second tier stick currently.

CCM P40 Pro Stock curve is now what?
Buzz_LightBeer replied to noupf's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Keep an eye out for any "team" variety sticks too, they were usually readily available it those -
True skate owners - how often do your rivets loosen?
Buzz_LightBeer replied to Westside's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
If you're reasonably mechanical, you could look for a mangled old pair of MLX or something and repurpose the bolt/nut setup. Ive done it to my skates for over a decade without issue -
Any shop that can do rivets should be able to handle that

Deron Quint on line 1…

For the one time fluke fall as you’ve described, I’d say any helmet in decent shape should suffice as long as the fit is correct. mid you want a modern upgrade I’d check out the Tacks 210 and 310
-
That, and they used to be compared to Custom + and ProLite 3, which is where I think that Graf idea came from

Sh!t-@ss bauer steel/sharpening question
Buzz_LightBeer replied to Griff's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Some of the newer CCM youth skates come pre sharpened, that may be the difference you were noticing. what’s going on is your wheel was getting gummed up by the factory coating, regardless of whether you’d “gotten a hollow” or not. Either cross grind them or use the 1.5” hollow method and your headaches will go away. Ruby or blue wheels seem to be the most popular for this application. No sense buying too end wheels for what you’re doing on rental skates -
Apologies, I read it as Custom Fit system. Are you able to try them on in person? im sure there was some change as CCM transitioned to the new boots, Pures website has a pretty comprehensive comparison chart I’d be inclined to trust it’s accuracy
