Does anyone have info on this chassis or seen anything about it? since they’re on Trues I’m not not sure if it’s something from True or perhaps some new Revision chassis. Looks interesting with all the cut outs in the frame and the way it’s attached to the boot.

Bauer uses that poron material on the backhand liner of their gloves, might be able to find something similar to that to use as the 'foam' for your replacement liners. That material might be too hot though, but just an idea.

You can't really 'rocker' a hi-lo chassis and expect to get the results you describe here, they're just not designed for that. I'm also unsure if you could actually use either 72mm or even 80mm wheels this chassis as they might not fit given the 68-68-72-72 set up. I'm all for trying new things but unfortunately I don't think you are going to get your desired results here and would be best off keeping the set up of this chassis. If you wanted to get into 'rockering' a chassis you're either gonna need a time machine or hope a pair of Suregrip frames pop up on ebay. I think I remember them having the ability to rocker the front and back wheel, the axel hole came oversized and offered different shims to give the front and back wheel a rocker. I remember way back in the 90's a lot of people rockering the front wheel on this chassis to get more of an ice feel, I never tried them so I can't really comment.

Is there an ETA for a retail/cheaper option?

Was just watching and looking at close up pics of Crosby, looks like he shims the front of his holder and the back end is sightly offset. Would this set up mimick something like that? From the website it does look like there is a shim that you attach to the bottom of your insole?

Is it just me or does the rear tower on the new holder look huge?

If we’re going back to 90’s era jerseys can we start bringing back that era’s gloves designs too? Can’t stand solid black or blue gloves most teams use.

Isn't it just going to be whatever is the newest Bauer boot plus the Kryptonium hi-lo chassis? Maybe a different manufacturer wheel, but pretty much the same as previous years offerings I would think.

Does it need marketing dollars though in today’s social media driven world? If you look at the Instagram page of beerleagueBeauty she has double the number of followers as Kendall Coyne who was in the skills comp and is doing color commentary. Perhaps a ‘build your own’, grass roots level fan interaction based league is what is needed. Take your product straight to your audience, engage them and make the event interactive. Sure they’re going to need some funding to get this built up but I would think that a few of the girls who got scholarships to play hockey might’ve majored in business and know a thing or 2 or have some connections in the venture capital world. At one time pro hockey players had jobs in the off season, ‘pro’ lacrosse players had full time jobs and played their ‘pro’ games on the weekend. I’m not saying the women haven’t made sacrifices, but there’s work that goes into building a league and it doesn’t just happen overnight after someone throws money at it (hello xfl/Vince McMahon).

They should copy the model built by the PLL (Premier Lacrosse League) this year. Best players on 6 teams going to sites for a weekend, maximize fan interaction, etc.

hey @caveman27Good to hear you're progressing and getting better! I know with my issue it was across the board with what surgeons have you do in terms of recovery and rehab so maybe your surgeon didn't think you needed PT. As long as you are listening to your body and progressing I think you're fine. Good luck with the next appointment and keep us posted!

My internal memory pattern DB is usually pretty good when it comes to blades like that from the 90's but I'm drawing a blank on that one. If you search Koho blade on eBay there's a signed blade (by Kevin Hatcher) that looks very familiar and has the curve listed as PP-21. Maybe that can help your search.

Looks like the Code One.1 come with Addictions and the Code2.one and lower come with those Kemistry wheels.

Tacki-mac have worked well for me. But with digi palms it seems like you're just delaying the inevitable, they always end up ripping.

RIP Dick Dale.

Jan-Michael Vincent, I know you're gonna say 'Who?' but if you were a kid from the 80's he was the dude from Airwolf.

Such a bummer and just when I needed a new one.

Looks like they’re coming with addictions which is a great wheel. Skate looks really nice if you ask me. Now the only question is how or better yet if they will hold up. Never had a Tour skate that lasted past 6 months or so with regular use.

I’m still using the superfeet I had vacuum fitted years ago, love them. and I’m getting old @JR Boucicaut my gear recollection isn’t what it once was.

Who makes them? Labeda or someone else?

Someone has to have the old CCM Machine (FIT?) laying around that they used on the VAKU Tacks back in 93 or 94. Now if it works or would work is another story but would be cool to try I guess.

Pic of the new Tour skates no info yet

Sawwwwwwft! I walked to school up hill, both ways, in 6 feet of snow...ok it wasn’t uphill but we never had school cancelled because it was cold or because there was a dusting of snow.
