  1. Jbyun do you rent ice at NTR often?

    not really, only rented twice

    on that note heres another pic from that same day

    woah... what the heck is that jersey, and what is an old out of use vancouver logo doing on a Rbk practice sweater??? That's pretty sweet.

    He could have just bought the jersey plain and scoured Ebay for an old Canucks crest...

  2. If I don't have a lie detector but I can try out sticks with my skates on... how do I hold the stick? And I'm guessing that I need somone to get down on the floor and see if the blade is flush? I'm just wondering cause in a game, often my top hand gets folded almost up into the armpit, and I don't think that that is the way that I should determine that the lie is good for me or not.

    Here ya go...

  3. And it's telling me I should be using a 3.5 lie.

    Which would make sense, because my tape always wears on the heel and a lot of times when I stickhandle, I lose the puck when it's near the toe (it goes under). I think my best bet would be to go with a Warrior Fedorov (4 lie). Right now I'm using an Iginla Stealth (5.5 lie).

    Anyone else have a lie detector? I want to know what success they had with it (accuracy, etc.)


  4. Questions about the R2 Armor shaft -

    1. Is it the exact same stick as the R2XN10 but with a new paint job and the "armor" reinforcement?

    2. What is the weight of the R2 (grams)? Any different from the XN10 shaft?

    3. The catalogue says "uses R2 replacement blades." Does it accept other replacement blades as well (Warrior, Easton specifically)?


  5. Anyone notice the Intake helmet is different than the pro version.  There are ugly pieces on the side of the helmet where the expanding peice is.  Look at the picture of players in the catalog (it resembles the HC100 side).

    The retail version has a different style adjuster that sticks out and doesn't mesh as well with the helmet

    It's an extra piece of plastic on retail versions.

    Can that extra piece of plastic be removed and replaced with screws (like the pros have)?


  6. I'm confused - which skates are the top of the line (i.e. most expensive) Mission ice skates this year? The 110AG of the 110XP? I realize they have different fits, but is one considered a better skate than the other in terms of quality? The 110XP's synopsis says "Want all the specs that the pros demand? Fuel 110Xp is your skate" so I would assume that the 110XP is the higher end model.

    Anyone know for sure?
