Putting on your stuff

[CHIEF22 0]

OK so here is probally another stupid question from the new guy. I am struggling with the shinpad,socks,skates,and pants thing. So if it doesn't sound too crazy could some of you tell me how you are doing it? It feels akward as hell trying to struggle with putting the skate toung under the shinpad after the shins and socks are on, and then tying the skates. Mabey it is just me. Hope this doesn't sound too stupid. Thanks for the help.

just slide the shinpad up,it shouldnt be hard doing that or your shinpad is to tight

[JR Boucicaut 3810]

Yep, leave it loose, put on your skates, put it over, and then tighten the shinpad/sock.

Ok, this is what I do.

Whip out my can, slide that on. Pull on my neckguard shirt. Then I put on my socks, pull them onto the velcro on my can. Pull up my pants, then put on my skates. Do up my skates, then put my shins on, then pull my socks down over top of the shinnys. Proceed to my upper routine. Basically, you need to get a routine and stick with it. Whichever one you like best.

not me....i put on my cup/velcro stuff, then my shinpads, socks, pants, underarmour, then tighten the pants, then i put on the skates and i slide my shin pad up. if u have trouble mooving the shin pad, then cut the pight band at the bottom of the sock. a litle incision will do to cut the elastic. one of my friends has th pants with the zipper on each leg so he dresses all the way except he puts his pants on last.

I put on my cup first since it is a bear to try to do that after I have my pants on. I put on my pants next followed by my socks then skates. Occasionally I have forgotten to put on my socks until after I have my skates on and it usually ends up with me ruining the socks as I stretch them over my skates. Once I have my skates on I pull my socks down and slide my shins into place, once they're in place I pull up my socks and tape them and the shins in place. I then stand up and tighten the belts on my pants. Next I put on my shoulder pads, elbow pads, and jersey. Then I look down and remove my skate gards so I don't go down as soon as I step on the ice. I put on my skull cap and helmet and grab my gloves and stick and hit the ice.

Garter/cup on, shin pads (no tape), socks, pants, lift up my socks and undo the velcrow on my shins, then put on my skates and tie them. The shins go down, velcrow, then the socks go down, and the tape goes on.

Well a forum is a place to ask questions (and even a bit anonymous) so you did the right thing..
