  1. Alright quick question here, first can the chassis that come on the tour cobalt qs be mounted on nike bauer vapor XVIs without having to dremel or mess with the skates at all? Second how long would you think it would take a shop that does holder changes to do it and will they do it right?
  2. I was thinking of converting a pair of s12s for roller, just have one major question or concern, would dremmeling the skates be neccesary or could i just use smaller wheels using hummer chassis.
  3. Nike/Bauer Supreme One 95 Flex: 87 Curve: P91a Height: 6'3" Weight: 156 pounds I only play roller hockey, and play either offense or defense, but I am more of a finese player then grinder. I used this stick for about 5 months before the blade snapped in half at a tournament. Aesthetics: I must say intially I hated everything about the sticks looks with it being so "un-flashy" but after a while the looks really grew on me. Its hard to find a stick now that isnt either a neon color or has an obnoxious pattern on it so I commend Nike/Bauer for this change. After a look in store it looked classy and like it wasnt trying too hard like some other sticks. 8.9/10 Weight/Balance: For a high end stick I thought that it was a little heavier than most sticks in its price range but the balance on it in my opinion was amazing. I absolutely fell in love with the stick when I picked it up, thats the main reason that i ended up buying it. 9.8/10 Blade: This is the best long term feature for me, since I only use two strips of tape i was expecting it to wear fairly quickly than it did. It kept all of the stiffness since the day I broke it. The only problem I had with it besides it snapping in half :( was the slight thickness but it took maybe twenty minutes to adjust. 9.6/10 Shaft: The shaft was weird for me the first few times I used it the stick it felt very flexy like it was going to break but never broke. After about a month of constant use it became very comfortable more so than any other stick I've used previously. 9.2/10 Stickhandling and Shooting: I felt this stick was impressive in the shooting department, I could feel when the stick would flex and release when I took slapshots and i could really load the stick up for wristers. I wasnt a huge fan of Bauer in previous models I bought because the blades were really fat making stickhandling difficult but this stick pulled it off well. Overall the shooting aspects were alot better than the width of the blade being a problem. 9.0/10 Durablility: The selling point of this stick, overall just a tank and functioned the same throughout the duration of use. I take a lot of faceoffs on one of the teams I play for so there were minimal scratches but nothing major. 10/10 Overall: 9.42 This is probably one of the only sticks Ive used in a very long time that I honestly recomend everyone i know to buy. The stick is more expensive than it probably should be but i think that it really pays for itself by going the distance and lasting longer than most of its competitors, I would definitely buy it again.
