Brand new Tavares pro stocks. Amazing palms on these ones, really soft.
-
Always fun to send the goaltender breakdancing, haha.
-
Thanks! He's gonna come out again in a few weeks hopefully and next time I will wear a better jersey ;)
-
Did you choose to use VH tongues or did they just happen to ship them to you that way?
-
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?
-
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.
-
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...
-
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!
-
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.

How much is it going to cost?
-
I think they look awful, lol. I prefer the clean look.
-
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?
