Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 I am finishing up the line as we speak....Finalizing all the chassis, wheel specs, etc...I can't show pics yet, but let's just say this will be our best product line ever...Every skate has been up spec'd, and almost every issue people have brought up has been addressed....After the year we had, we have to bring the best...

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 Is it a dream for me to expect the re-introduction of the VSi skate? Is it possible to ask if your staying with Factory and I assume the Hi-Lo chassis as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoffer 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 This is not the most on topic thing but since you seem to work for mission you can probably answer this. Is tit true that you had it out with Labeda and there Sensor frame layout wit the 76-72-80-80 format. I heard that you paten sued or something Labeda so they could not be used on tours new line of equipment? I don’t know I have just herd this from a few hockey people.

Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 Mission owns the Hi-Lo Patent and Sensor does fall under this patent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The DNA eyelets combined with waxed laces work way better. When I put my D2's on, I tighten the laces, and that's where they stay. No retightening or other adjustments necessary. I hope Mission stays with DNA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdcopp 1 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 I thought the patent was clear aboutA. only two different sized wheelsand B. two distinct planes for the centerlines of the axels to sit uponNike used a loophole to "design" their frame for 3 different sized wheels, centerlines lying on two planes. How then is the Sensor not also exempt by have three sizes on three planes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LickerLongTail 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 I would love to come back to Mission skates. I hope the one problem I had with the He line(which was the stiffner package) is improved. This is the first time I have never worn mission skates and we be looking forward to seeing the new skates.Tomas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bane 1 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 i just hope they bring back the vibe classic in some way. I still have a set of those I can sell you... They are essentially not even used..

wickedlite44 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 i agree, they are "classic" for a reason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajd91187 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 switched my vibes to sensors a while back and the performance increase was huge... vibes should stay classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shute 4 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 oh man... :( i loved my vibes and thought it worked great. i'll settle for neon lights on the bottom of the skates then B) would it be safe to say that the new skates would be based on that new mission ice skate?

stevoc 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 Hopefully it will be back to a more traditional looking boot. I didn't care much for the new helium line, but loved the D1c's/D2c's and the VS/VSI/VI line in 2001.And back to a chassis like the old silver penetrator. Great chassis. (I like the plain ol' silver chassis on black boot look.) :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
