Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 So I am sitting in the EVA Air lounge right now, passing time before I return home to LA. I am so sick of traveling (especially to ASIA by yourself)....The weather is surprisingly nice, and I can actually see the sun (something that is rare in these parts)....When I finally get home tomorrow night, I will have been traveling for over 26 hours....Good news is I am very close to finishing a new skate prototypes...I think the hockey world will be happy when they see these...Also, just finished a new line of goalie for roller and some new roller pants...Just trying to pass some time....Justin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vapor 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Good thing im a code breaker for the US Government. JR is speaking of the new Mission Ping pong line. Feauturing the all new 195.00 Mission Whip, which comes standard with carbon fibre handle, and composite face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve66 45 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 I think the reference to Hong Kong is a key clue... obviously there is a high concentration of advanced consumer electronics over there, and developments often ahead of other markets.. therefore its fair to assume the ping pong line is gonna be computer driven and controlled. I heard something about auto vibration control and reduction!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thejackal 46 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Justin:The goalie on my team has Mission pads, not sure of the model but they might be Motion Lites. Anyway during the warmup last game I did a low slapshot standing still from the blue line and it hit him right on the knee protector (the square thing that pops up when the goalie goes down) and it stung him pretty badly. Maybe there should be a little more protection the the future versions of the pad. Is that being improved? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3803 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 That's not a knee protector, that's a thigh pad, and those things are thin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR Boucicaut 3803 Report post Posted June 18, 2004 When I was in China on the All-American Ping-Pong team, I just loved playing ping-pong with my Mission ping-pong paddle...everyone knows it isn't true, but Mama said it was just a little white lie so it wasn't hurtin' nobody.

JR Boucicaut 3803 Report post Posted June 18, 2004 Damn, don't know what I'd do - I get restless on planes. Not that I'm afraid of them, but I usually get up a lot and I rarely sleep on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2004 You should try some Melatonin (SP). it is a supplement that you can buy at any nutrition store. It helps you go to sleep. I use it when i have a late game at 11pm or something and it helps me calm me down from playing in the game earlier and making it easier to goto sleep.

kosydar 0 Report post Posted June 19, 2004 I've come to terms with the fact that I can't sleep on planes, even at night. So being the electronics whore that I am, I just watch DVDs, listen to my iPod, or play my GBA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
