  1. I have flat feet, not only have I stretched that area, I've given them moderate heat (5-6) mins, tied them and stood in them to relax that area
  2. They're plenty stiff but useable. The Red Widow paint job is a thing of beauty too. As painful as that is for a Blues fan to admit
  3. Love Xmas in June! Holmstrom Widows, 5.2 HCR 75, 5.2 TC4 75
  4. Milwaukee Admirals 2015, June 9th. Should be VERY promising http://www.milwaukeeadmirals.com/news/0507garage
  5. I use the dimpled ones. Not the fanged ones.
  6. I have access to a riveter, so I use the copper rivet anvil with the rivet remover jig to seat the T nut in place (tough to describe via text). It's a tight fit, so it helps hold the nut in place while tightening. Never had to redrill a hole.
  7. Not true. Here are MLX screws. Pan Head Torx, 8-32 1/4" are what I use. T nuts and washers as well http://www.mcmaster.com/#machine-screws/=uulzgh
  8. Graf nuts will likely ruin the mako sole. MLX screws are the way to go, you can find them in reasonable quantities, I'll find the site.
  9. i put 8 MLX screws on in place of rivets on day one and haven't had a single issue.
  10. I prefer thin footbeds in Mako skates. I replaced the stock ones with some basic Grafs as well as some Elites without a problem
  11. Being customs I'm not 100% sure of the model, I think they're labeled X805i PPF. 160 + 2 and colors and striping were the only mods.
  12. Any shop with an Eagle account would have the capability.
  13. Thanks to Eagle, my misses will have custom pants for the holidays. Penguins striping, 160 + 2.
  14. I would replace the front/back rivets of the from and back towers with MLX screws if you have some. Should make a world of difference.
  15. Retail rant of the day; Bauer's "in-stock" items and Warriors "customer service" Heavy on the air quotations.
  16. Done it for years, 5-8 minutes in a skate oven, then I work the fingers over the back roll to soften and elongate the palms to make them more mobile. Works wonders. I really can't see the skate oven being hot enough to do structural damage to anything.
  17. Did I get a car wash on the new pick up today? YES. Did I remember my equipment bag and sticks were in the bed when I did it? NOPE.
  18. It's designed to be their lower kick "Vapor" style. So far I'm underwhelmed, especially considering the MSRP. It's good, but far from great.
  19. Hockey Day in America ends a pretty good week.
  20. I know a guy and was lucky enough to get to try one. I'll get a few ice times on it before I get some concrete opinion.

  22. That black heel is so much nicer.
