The other day I was thinking about equipment that didn't quite live up to its producer's hype. The two that immediately came to mind for me were the RBK 9k O-Stick and the CCM X-Ray Helmet. Perhaps Tuuk Lightspeed 2 Power Holders. What else fits in the discussion? (Edit - Try to include a picture if it's something most wouldn't recall)
-
Same pattern going into all of them?
-
Missed the one90 hiding with the Eastons. Waiting on the blade haul now, eh?

That was a mod that I saw them doing at the factory in St-Jerome when I went there. Basically a few pros were getting cuts in their legs from the edges of the boot digging into their skin (a problem I used to have with Bauer skates and still have the scar) so sewing that softer foam on there makes it feel a bit better. Yikes. You couldn't do any self-modding to rid yourself of that problem - or at least wear socks or something?
-
Nice bounty. Anything remarkable about the skates?
-
And they only set me back about a month's worth of food. How I've missed you, Ramen Noodle Diet. Edit - Assumed you were talking about mine. Shame on me if I was wrong.

Keep it simple.

I don't care for the branding on the thumb. Other than that, those mittens look excellent.
-
dude you played for WBHS? I managed the shop at OLSM Haha, yeah - I had the misfortune of playing for WB. I try not to think about it. That's a solid shop they've got over there at OLSM though.

I'm sure those pine tree air fresheners are doin' wonders for ya, haha.
-
Gotcha. For the record, I wasn't questioning their validity. Just curious.
-
Why do the twigs have UPCs?

High school. Reached my peak at the tender age of 17.

Back in my heyday (2007)

Nope, ebay... Great seller, had them within 3 days of bidding. I can look up who it was if you'd like.

Can't wait to take these for a spin:
-
Yes, sir. I've been fortunate enough to skate with him while attending some camps at the University of Michigan. There's a man with some fire.
-
Agreed; I'm normally not big on numbers on the front (or clavicle... ugh), but these are a nice throwback:

If anyone was interested in the Michigan-Adidas deal, the replica sweaters have just been released. The new whites will likely feature the players' number beneath the "Michigan" text. Classy look in my opinion:
-
Speaking of that, does anybody know how this deal (or a deal of the like) works? If I recall correctly, Notre Dame (which has a deal with Adidas) is outfitted entirely in Rbk equipment (skates notwithstanding, per usual in college hockey), with Adidas logos on the socks and sweaters. UMass, however, has the same Adidas logos, but is outfitted in NBH equipment. Perhaps it has something to do with UMass having been with Nike in recent years. Notre Dame: This UMass: From this to this. All I know is that if I see a winged pattern on an 8k, I'll vomit. Not so good:
-
Unfortunately, Michigan has dropped the Swoosh and added the 3 stripes.
