    https://sidelineswap.com/Zydo Details and pics in my locker. Easton Air SBX boots, I just installed brand new LS2 holders and steel, 288. $125 plus shipping SB XS Black steel, light use, 280, with a travel case, $45 plus shipping

    My immediate thoughts, having never worn that particular model are Vapor, Covert, and/or One95

    What flex are you after? I think the A6.0SBP version was mid kick
  4. Buzz_LightBeer
    They look terrific in person. And they nailed comfort and fit. With the new RibCore as well

    The point is, they're touting tensile strength, which is not why laces break. they break because they get cut and frayed, which these will inevitably do no matter how cut resistant they claim to be. Imagine the lace bite and discomfort from laces that do not stretch or give in any way.
  6. Buzz_LightBeer
    $16 for "unbreakable" laces with no give. Looks like a solution to a problem that hardly exists.

    Domestic vs foreign production

    One90's sold, bump to the top

    Maybe I’m missing the point but this seems like 98% benefit to a retailer, and 2% to consumer. realistically how many people want this steel, and also routinely switch skates between brands?
  10. Buzz_LightBeer
    Maybe it means “non-returnable?” im sure they don’t want people ordering these, trying them on and sending them back
  11. Buzz_LightBeer
    Except his point has a lot of validity.

    Pros get what they want. A good number don't know what they want. And surprisingly few are picky.

    Those who remember. 😯 quarantine cleanup is unearthing some relics. 🤣

    Amp Human PR lotion, Performance & Recovery Bicarb Sports Lotion, Bottle (300g) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082P4SXRZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fab_cdOFFbE5HBGXS using this as a supplement could help as well

    http://www.ar-sports.com/12-pack-regulation-ice-hockey-pucks/puckpack_12-2/ This came to mind, but durability might be an issue
  16. Buzz_LightBeer
    would that be where the edge of the wrap was and made a crease in the boot?
  17. Buzz_LightBeer
    Sorry, I should’ve qualified it a little further. The shop was given the ability to buy one pair of each size offered, heavily discounted. I seem to recall it around the Synergy and Vector timeline, at the time they were used to demo on ice, as opposed to size. it’s possible you’re correct and it got too costly for the vendor or retailer and that’s why it went away
  18. Buzz_LightBeer
    That used to be commonplace practice with CCM and Easton, and wasn’t cost prohibitive at all. On toP end skates I should say

    The ones I’m thinking of are made in the Philippines, where TPS made their HGT and R8, if I’m not mistaken almost a clone, and a very, very nice glove. Someone who knows more than I can either confirm or refute that mfg claim though

    I wonder how much of hose equipment managers are simply using Bauer bias, and doing it also for simplicities sake

    Going back to my retail days, "Cheap shit on the internet, is Cheap Shit on the Internet for a reason." be careful what you wish for

    https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=1445 I believe he was the origin. Warrior referred to P89 as the "Drury" for years, and the Rbk equivalent was TD-13
  23. Buzz_LightBeer
    Not sure many will agree with me, but I’ve done the same experimentation. I had a few 77’s that I found too flexible so I cut them down and put a 2-4” plug in the make the height correct again. Stiffens it up a bit without making the full jump up in flex
  24. Buzz_LightBeer
    Same, but plastic report binder covers 🤣

    just leaving this here to ensure you’re using it properly. You roll the shirt over the forearm portion of the pad, not back over the shirt. A few posts made it sound like guys were rolling the shirt over on itself
