I may be misremembering but about that time, near the Bauer buyout, I think they took all Mexican production and moved it to China. Guys deeper in the industry may be able to confirm or deny that

where can one buy skate lifts?
Buzz_LightBeer replied to bthompson1286's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Depending how thick you're trying to go you can easily fashion some yourself out of scrap plastic. If they're to be used long term maybe find someone who knows 3D printing, and see if that process could handle the stress of skating on -
Easton price pointed sticks were made in various places. I'm sure Vietnam was one of them. Top of the line were made in Mexico until at least the CX iirc

Can you heat skates without holders?

As long as you’re not standing on them while they’re hot, I don’t see the harm -
Replacement for nikebauer vapor xxx gloves
Buzz_LightBeer replied to iceman8310's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
A vapor pro team might be closer to what you’re after. There are plenty floating around -
Secret of the pros- put a hand warmer or two inside your cup in the pocket. I usually wear under armour tights, shins over, with sweats or waterproof pants depending how cold it is. A UA mock turtle neck, plus a sweatshirt and jersey. layers are key. A fairer isn’t a bad idea either. plan on bringing something warm for after/between games. I prefer Duluth fleece carhartt style pants if you’re coming from Cali, my best advice to you is; however cold you think Minneapolis will be in January, it’ll be much colder than that

Carbonlite runners from Hyperlite
Buzz_LightBeer replied to Beerleaguebumhockey's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
Bauer has tried it on a few variations of Vapors, the 8/10 series and the XX come to mind. Maybe there’s a proper balance but it seemed the lost durability in the runner outweighed (no pun) any benefits from reduced weight. -

It’s only a matter of time imo before they start separating like the Fusion did -

Didn’t need a pair of binoculars to see this problem coming. -
Iirc, custom plus, LS2, and Ls edge have the same mounting pattern within reason. Maybe just update them?

I should clean out my storage more frequently.

Gorilla Glue clear may do the trick as well

A custom skate, by nature, should solve fit problems. -
a leather or luggage repair place may have a machine that could stitch it too. I've had luck with that in the past

I put this in last years but I’ll throw it here too. 4orte Kraken bags

Wowee 😯

The scan is guideline and not gospel. Try skates on according to the scan, decide what you like best, and if you’re truly a 6 or 6.5, get an older model Sr skate in the fit you prefer.

Explain how this is “innovative” or better than what is currently in use, if you’re going to take that indignant stance on it. Different and innovative are two different things.

It seems like a solution to a non existent problem. You can wear a cage, a fishbowl, a visor cage combo…. Or this 🤷🏽♂️

Not sure which part you're referring to, but i didn't change any of the padding

CCM 100k pro skates: early impressions
Buzz_LightBeer replied to SolarWind's topic in Ice Hockey Equipment
I would say no, and no. I haven't looked into the cost difference, but If there is a model with clarino in them stock, I would suggest total custom in that model, to keep things simple. Especially if you don't need any other wild accommodations to your feet. I had mine made with flattened arches and they turned out perfect.
