Blueandgold26 1 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 Just showing you guys an idea i came up with and made and to see what you guys thought.It took about 10 mins to make and cost about 7 dollars.

Goalieboy#1 1 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 Good job. My mom did this, but she used a vacuum belt instead of a bungee cord. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

philatangy 0 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 Sounds very easy...How do you use one of these, and what does it do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warriorsdman 1 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 You slide the puck toward the bungee cord in a passing motion, then it will return the pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mxihockey 0 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 I made one of these but square shaped. It worked good for my shooting pad, but if you really fire a pass it doesn't work. I put nails in the bottom so that I could use it on the ice but it still slipped . I also made a home mad slide board for under $30 and it works great. If anyone would like to see it I could post some pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blueandgold26 1 Report post Posted July 28, 2008 the measurements are 32" for the long 2x4's going horizontal and the side 2x4's are 12" and the bungee is a 24" bungee cord you can generally get it at any hardware store it doesn't move for normal passes because it weighs enough but if you pass hard enough it might move a little bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blueandgold26 1 Report post Posted July 30, 2008 i bought synthetic ice off american hockey center its 39.99+21.00 shipping but its worth it it works awsome espically with roller pucks but normal pucks work good too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
