I wouldn't say that. Around here the shop with the crook for an owner, no selection and high prices has the FIT system in place and the legit shop with the good prices doesn't. lol thats awesome...does anyone know if that can be used on skates? say Bauers for example? or do they have to be CCM's? thanks in advance guys :D Of course you can use them on other skates. I actually thought about going to the sleaze-ball shop(which I avoid at all costs) to use it for my one95s. The system is rather old but they are great for skates like the one90/one75, one95, nine-1, U+, Kor, etc... because of the amount of molding that these skates offer. thanks for that TBL. i got my grafs baked but i am thinking (i always wanted to try) doing this next time with my grafs. and maybe, just maybe, if i can ever find a pair cheap bauer vapor xxxx, i can try doing this FIT thingy majiggy lol to them. thanks again.

awesome pics lampliter. love the yellow laces :D

hey guys saw an article on sportsnet regarding the Phil Kessel Trade. Seems like speculation but "two well placed sources" And Burkie is really big on this guy. apparently in the next week or so there should be a pretty big deal. see the link. :D Phil Kessel Potential Trade Article

hey Mik awesome pics those bauer gloves look totally sick. :D

lol dont forget your friends in toronto, canada :D

i just saw too old's graf's and i ji$$ed in my pants...awesome skates :D those are g3's right? how do you like them? nice stick collection too. i see you love those rbk 10K's.

thanks TBL. JR, you are one lucky dude getting to try that stick. my dream is to be able to try hockey equipment for companies...a guy can dream can't he haha. Just like the ferrari test drivers. just test out their equipment all day.

lookin good JR. awesome stick and gloves. is that a custom curve on your s17? love the pitch holders on the skates. do you ever play around with the pitch or do you just like how strong they hold up to abuse? have you ever seen the mastercard commerical about wanting to drive a zamboni? great commercial. your nephew looks like he is having a blast on the zamboni. :D

nice palms on the gloves kovy. those look extremely comfortable.

considering the amount of ppl we get (forced to come gf's lol) its pretty good having 800 fans there... i can imagine what it would be like having a huge crowd behind you to get you pumped up before and after the game. awesome pics as well funkybeans. those sabres colors look great.

sweet. i tried on a pair of MIA's at hockey experts when I was looking for gloves ( and a few others) they felt great. for some odd reason, i love easton sticks haha. awesome work though. is that a bauer 5500 helmet you got there. i got my gf one of those for when we go to stick and puck, great helmet.

nice set up duxy. those MIA gloves look nice. loving the easton stick preference =) i have an ST blue heatley 85 flex that i cant wait to use. wow that is insane. and i think you said that is not your entire collection lol. WOW!!!

yah good job man. looks awesome. have you been bugging any goalies with it? lol how do you like your U+ i imagine though the avery stick is a much better quick convo piece on the bench awesome gloves. anything with minnesota wild colors is beautiful.

hey Legia those are awesome pics. i wish we could that many fans at our games haha. awesome jerseys too. our after game ritual is usually beer and wings. awesome pics again. its good to see other hockey players enjoying the game.

very nice dolomite. that ccm u clear is pretty sick too. is that a pro stock dolomite? i think its the new graphics package. nice work :D

sorry guys and gals. :( i will cut that out going forward. that was one of my first posts.

here are some pictures of me...the red jersey is with my old team... the black jersey pic was summer league. the summer league was alot of fun this year... i am the one in the front with a red jersey...head turned away from the camera. another leauge pic... this is my first time posting a picture. i hope it turns out ok.

nice sticks... that samsonov curve is disgusting...i use the same on my 2 piece sticks.. nice sticks. you will be putting cookies in the top shelf very shortly...muhahahaha. looks alright. i had the exact same setup on my 1200's before i got my grafs...which are getting the ls2 set up soon. nice looking skates...

Product- Graf 703. Background- 5'9 180 lbs, winger/defense, narrow heel-moderate mid foot and arch, and wide forefoot. Fit- I have tried Bauer, CCM, RBK, and even eastons (which i used to love)...one of my friends got me to try on a graf boot and i havent looked back since about 4 years go. the 703 was made for my feet as i love to say. no heel slippage what so ever. very very very comfortable...even when i am on the ice for like 2.5 hours at shinny. they are heat moldable too which alot of skates are so it makes it even better. over 10/10 Blade/Holder- i like the holders alot...although when i am covering on defense its too much of a forward lean...great for a forward though. i usually get a bit of a D grind on them when they are profiled so i am on my toes but not too much. the steel is strong and i can really dig in to turns. i havent had the infamous clicking noise problem. i hear the LS2 holders are better...i might give them a try. but overall the graf nt-3000 holders get an 8/10 from me. Weight- they arent as light as alot of the other skates but i dont notice it that much when i skate...they could be lighter i suppose but decent skate weight. 9/10 Protection- These skates have a lot of protection I have taken slap shots, wristers, slasher...other ppl diving into me skate first (i dont know why lol)...very protective. 9/10 Durability- I feel these skates have great durabillity. I think this is one of grafs many strong points. I am still using these and it has been 4 years. they still look great and the cobra holders are still kicking too...i am on the ice 3 times a week in the winter minimum and twice a week in the summer minimum. 10/10 Intangibles- awesome skate. i have alot of sentimental value with grafs. i refuse to wear other makes because i like these bad boys so much. every now and then i might try on another boot but...nahh...grafs it is. also i find for some reason, waxed laces work the best with grafs. btw i have superfeet insoles in them Conclusion- great skate and would highly recommend it. any graf skate as i just recently put my gf into a pair of 705's and she loves them (she had bauer vapors before)...isnt that cute lol. :P just make sure you get super feet insoles with them. Overall Rating....9.5/10

here is my current set up... mens league hockey...usually play B. power skating (w/pucks) once a week, and shinny once a week This is how i roll ;) Skates: Graf Supra Top Light 703 w/cobra holders (getting ls2 put on shortly) Shins: Bauer vapor XVI shins jock: very important (usually buy the best one on the market haha) pants: vic xcalibur senior pro pant (the most protective pant ive ever had) socks: edge socks at shinny and power skating and team cloth socks at games elbow pads: TPS R4 elbow pads Gloves: Bauer supreme 50 gloves with a soon to be replaced nash palm shoulder pads: Bauer supreme shoulder pads. helmet: RBK 4K with chrome cage Stick: Easton SC2 sakic curve, Easton Typhoon 2 piece w/custom curve black tape on blades and command grip on knob. decent set up on a student budget.
