    Hey @Skate Mod I read you’re manifesto, I mean website...gotta say some real great info, other stuff, a little head scratching. I need to give it another tons of info! I’m with @oldtrainerguy28 and am kind of curious of your background here. Biomechanics phd? Former R&D at one of the big companies? Pro skate rep? My post count or 23 second of a men’s league shift where I can actually skate halfway decent don’t make me an expert, but I’m of a mindset where I’ll trust someone based on their background, etc. I’ve been around the block a little and your site is fascinating, but I’ve never seen anyone skating with a ‘H’ notched out of their boot. That said, I’m curious to know more and hear some more info from you.

    Must play for Tortorella and have to block shots all the time.

    Could just be me and the way I shoot or maybe a bad batch or something. The blade to me just doesn't feel crisp is the best way to explain it, not as responsive as other sticks I use.

    I would've like to have seen an update to the Dynasty girdle. I love mine but the kidney padding area is coming apart, the material used there is just too thin and the pointed plastic inserts rip through. I don't mind taking out the old needle and thread but with all of the updated materials on gloves & pants I would love to see some more durable materials used. I'll also chime in and say I'm not a fan of the Alpha so far, the blade just feels too soft for me. The kick of the shaft is pretty decent but the torque I put on the blade when shooting just feels like I am using a worn out blade. Also is this the year we stop seeing Tapered shafts?

    +1 for pat at custom pro repair. might just wanna ask a local spot that does athletic embroidery or something along those lines. Ive also seen recently gear from the Kings where they used heatpress stickers to put on player names/numbers to gloves.

    Lost in the finals this past weekend at a tourney. 5 games in 3 days and my surgically repaired neck is fine, my liver on the other hand could use a few days off.

    Surgery to remove 3 herniated discs out of my cervical spine and a titanium plate screwed to my neck later and I'm back on the ice. Lost in the finals but feeling great after 5 games in 3 days!

    Just an FYI folks, Play It Again Sports in Dedham, MA is going to have a bunch of Kings Pro Stock gear for sale on July 30th at their tent sale.

    Had an awesome week of picking up pro stock gear. Was able to help some friends pick up stuff up and also got some great stuff for myself.

    First time back on the ice in over 6 months and a little under 6 months after surgery as well.

    On the topic of home fix up or flipping shows they are not to be watched if you're trying to by a house in the greater boston area. With that being said looks like the fam is making a move and dipping our toe into the world of home ownership. Lets just hope this doesn't result in numerous posts in the venting spot thread.

    Oh lets hear the specs Monty! Those look great, the white binding looks amazing. More teams need to bring that back.

    7 weeks post op from neck surgery, cleared for PT. Doc said everything is looking good, road of recovery rumbles along!
  22. the_game
    2 week postop doctors from my neck surgery, X-rays look good & doc is impressed with how well my strength has returned to my right side. Still can't lift anything more than 5 lbs, but the best news is I can start weening myself off using the neck brace and once I'm comfortable without it doc said I can start driving again. They're baby steps but slowly and surely I'm getting back on track!

    Im kicking off 2017 going from the venting spot to the sweet spot. The scary spinal/neck surgery that came out of the blue was a success. My surgeon was excellent and he said it's only a matter of time before I'm as good as new. All I can do now is take it slow and heal up. All I can really say is if you got something health-wise going on, don't wait, get it checked out. And if you have to push for an MRI, X-RAY or whatever, do it, it's your body and it might save your life.

    Ending 2016 with the quite the bang, major surgery. Had a lingering stiff neck and some weird feeling in my arm, turns out it's herniated discs and I need neck fusion surgery. Going under the knife Thursday.

    That reminds of the old late 90's Easton Zubrus curve. Might have to check one of those out.
