    My buddy was nice enough to get some pics of me at a private pickup last week. Not bad for his first time shooting hockey!

    From PSH, these are 13” and came from the Avalanche. Nice fit, I like them so far.

    Nice... that is one thick shim!

    Yeah in the meantime I think I will go to 5/8 or 9/16 on my Step Black while I wait. I can’t even send the steel to them until late next week so I’ll have a little time there.

    I have been speaking via email with Bob at No Icing Sports - based on the questionnaire that they sent me, he recommended an FBV 92/95 and 8/12' combination radius. I ordered some LS3 steel from PSH for $40, so I am gonna send that to them to try out before I make the decision to sending them my Step Black.

    Yep, I am in Costa Mesa :) I pretty much only use USH for sharpening. James and Kevin are my go-to guys there... I don't trust sharpening from Pure or Monkey, which sucks because Monkey is about a mile from my work.

    Sounds good. Based on the info you guys provided, I think I will go with a 1 to start with and see how it goes. Thanks again, guys. I will post an update when I get it done.

    Thanks again for helping me with this, guys - I would buy you each a beer if I could :)

    I am 6'1, 200 and 42 years old. Speed is ok but could be better and first few steps/acceleration could be much better. I feel like I have to work hard for every stride but that could also be age, haha. Turns could definitely be tighter, I always feel like my turns are fairly wide.

    Sorry, I am completely dumb when it comes to this stuff - what do you mean exactly?
  11. Fletch
    Nice, thanks for the link. Ultimately I think I will buy some Bauer LS3 steel to get the profiling done, and if I like it I will send them my illegal BlackSteel to do the same way, heh.
  12. Fletch
    Sounds good - maybe some others can chime in to see if they also think that sounds like the best option :) I also need to find a place that does this kind of work - so far I have struck out with my local Pure Hockey and Hockey Monkey stores.

    Step BlackSteel sharpened at 1/2" and that's it...
  14. Fletch
    Can anyone help me with this? Basically, I have been playing for a long time now (28 years) but I have never messed with profiling, radiuses, etc. I just always get my skates sharpened at 1/2 inch but I want to try quad zero at Zac911's (True rep) suggestion. I am currently skating on a True boot with LS Edge/Step BlackSteel with a small shim to pitch me forward a bit. Just wondering what the best option for me would be as far as a quad profile goes. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

    Great info, thanks for posting that!
  16. Fletch
    I think that’s everyone’s thing here

    Here are my Trues with the LS Edge holder and Step Black on them... I really hope I don't have any issues with clicking because skates don't get much sexier looking than this IMO.
  18. Fletch
    How much is it going to cost?
  19. Fletch
    I think they look awful, lol. I prefer the clean look.
  20. Fletch
  21. Fletch
    Can you tell they will click even if they are not on a boot? Because in that case you could just exchange the holder for a new one, no?
  22. Fletch
    Thanks man. I have another friend who uses Edge with Step black on them so my buddy wants that same setup... have you ever used step black on the edge holders and had any issues?
  23. Fletch
    Does anyone know if the True/VH holder and the LS Edge holder have the same hole patterns? A buddy of mine wants to get Edge holders and asked me this question but I wasn't sure. He is also wondering if the True heel piece will have to be removed for the Edge holders and if that will be easy for a LHS to do... not sure of that answer either. Any help would be great :)
  24. Fletch
    Thanks man. They were used a couple times but in very good shape, I lucked out. I love traditional 4-roll gloves so I should be set for a while.
