Bring it Back

[black296tuuk 3]

So the stick topic has got my mind racing. If you could bring back ANY one piece of equipment, what would it be?

Mine would be the clear tuuk, except this time i would make them not break.

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

I sharpened a pair of clear Tuuk 2000s this afternoon. Mounted on a pair of Langes, circa 1975.

Old Easton aluminum shafts.

[Neo5370 132]

Nike Air Accel Elites!!! But I'd have to have a pair of 752 kevlars/original 652 tacks/mega air 90/and second generation bauer 5000's to skate in.

Gloves: easton gx 7600

Externos.

They are replaced by Vectors but Externos looked better.

I second the Micron Mega 90's. I loved those skates......

The only skates I wore through minor hockey. Then when Bauer tried to do them as the Air 90's, I switched halfway through that season. Wasn't the same. They hurt my toes, tried three pairs but the caps all dug in.

It was all about the Power Clip!

Yeah, I'm all with you on that one.

Daoust 501s

BNH should cough up a skate someday based off that Daoust last if they still have it.

I liked the old Cooper MBP8000 girdle. The modern-day Bauer version of it just isn't the same.

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

I had the Bauer version of it. I still have it...the spandex started pilling. I'm using the Vapor version but it's not the same...

[black296tuuk 3]

I have the old cooper. I wear it for roller. It pretty much gives you the best range of motion of anything you can can buy

Daoust 501s

Best skate ever! The 555 "Gold" never lived up to the reputation of the 501.

Yeah same here, I used it for roller and that thing really conformed to your body and you almost didn't realize you were wearing it. I really don't care for the "roller hockey girdles" because I don't feel as if they are padded enough.

After my Cooper crapped out a few years ago, I bought a CCM Tacks girdle and that thing is so friggin' bulky. Not even close to the old Coop.

Cooper Alls!!!!!!

Hey JR this sounds like the conversation we had in your shopp in March!!! I have an old pair of Cooperalls but the girdle is shot. I was planning on buying the new Vapor girdle but at JR request I opted for the Tackla TG4000. I could not be happier. Very similar fit, excellent mobility and protection.....gee this sounds like a equipment review!!!! :D

[mack 44]

Pad-wise I'm going with the Techniflexes. I still can't find anything similar in the Bauer line.

VAPOR 1's i loved those the boot was more like a sneaker than a skate.

[Chadd 916]

I loved the shins and elbows from teh old Hespeler Classic Lite line. I would make a couple of slight improvements to better suit me, but I'm selfish like that.
