  1. New MW2 ad ;) Everyone's Doing It (Too Dirty for TV)
  2. New stuff and super old stuff. Took 10 years off, hence the Bauer 2000's and Easton Air's EAgle Leather G70, ppfi's, Easton Air GX1350's, Vapor XXXX Pro's Sticks
  3. Helmet: NBH 9500 w/ 9500 cage Shoulder Pads: Easton S17 Elbow Pads: Nike Bauer One90 Shin Pads: NBH Vapor XXXX Gloves: NBH Vapor XXXX Pros (awesome glove), Cream Colored Eagle X70's I got off ebay that don't fit Pants: Warrior Hustler, NBH Supreme 70 Skates: Nike Bauer One95, Easton S15 (IMO The one95's are a much better skate) Sticks: 2 S17's and a Dolomite (Like S17's much better)
  4. For anyone thinking of buying Warrior Hustler pants...they run a bit big. I took a pic comparing them to my Bauer Supreme 70's (which I am replacing because they are not very protective, although extremely mobile and comfortable). The Hustlers are a size small as are the Bauers. I'm 5'7 125lbs. Sending these back for an XS. Warrior Hustler S: Bauer Supreme 70 S: and yes, I often do wear my gear around the house for no good reason, but I feel this had reason.
  5. Foot spec - med/wide forefoot, high arch, small heel, Last skate worn - Bauer 2000 (yes I quit playing when I was 19 and started up again 5 months ago at 31) 5'7", 120 lb, Center Fit - Well compared to the older skates they felt very stiff. I immediately noticed pain in my ankle bones and above, around the tongue. I had them baked in the store and it didn't make much of a difference. I figured they would get better once I broke them in. The first 3 times I skated on them I ended up with painful wounds right above my ankle bones and bruised ankles. I wore blister band-aids for the first month which kept the skin from rubbing off but I still had the pain. It's been 5 months and I'm still having issues. I was taping my ankles to add a bit of padding but that just got annoying. I have been using wrist bands over my ankles which works pretty good but takes away from the nice heel suction that these skates have. Better than nothing. I tried a gel sleeve last night at my pickup game but it was very long and caused pain on the bottom of my foot. I'm hoping the bunga pads that just cover the ankle bones will help. Planning on ordering some. 5/10 Blade/Holder - Can't complain. Super strong and super light. Holds a great edge even after 5-6 ice sessions w/o a sharpening. 9/10 Weight- These weigh nothing. My speed improved tremendously, even after 10 years off the ice. 10/10 Protection - Taken a few shots off the skate and haven't felt a thing yet. 10/10 Durability - 5 months at 2-3 times a week on the ice. No problems yet. 10/10 Conclusion - I love everything about this skate except for the tongue. I can see why they decided to go felt with the S17's.
