I'm bored this morning.. and I've updated some stuff since my initial post... I passed my old stuff onto some of the newer guys in my pickup hour. I figure I get a little coin for it, and it keeps the guys coming.... turnout = good.

Helmet: Mission Intake w/ an Oakley straight cut pro this time. (I gave the ITech to my brother.) I picked it up on sale at my local Sports Authority for $21...hope this one dosen't spiderweb like my 1st Oakley

Shoulder Pads: Sherwood 5030 Tradition....

Elbows: Mission Fuel 85's...

Pants: CCM Pro girdle, with black Tackla shells... I liked the girdle a lot more than the standard pants.. again, I guess I like the tight stuff. The protection on this thing rocks.

shins: Mission Fuel 85... I have this weird thing where my shins, and elbows always match... odd

skates: RBK 9K Pump... and who knows what pair I'll end up in at the end of this week.

Sticks: Man, did I do a good job of get rid of some of these... again, the guys in my pick up hour love me, especially the lefties. Right now I'm down to...

-RBK 7K Sickick.... stiff flex, Phaneuf pattern.

-Sherwood RM9, stiff... Bouchard pattern

-Warrior Dolomite... 120 fx, Fedorov pattern

....and I changed the XD blade from my Sherwood shaft to the Bouchard pattern as well. I also receiently added a Shock Doctor bag, and blower...

i was curious to know if anyone has either the abuer 8000 or 8500 helmet with a jofa (or CCM) 480 cage, as i was thinking of getting this combo and was curious to see how it looks. If you have the combo could you please post a pic. Thanks!

[DamnLocust 0]

Helmet - Bauer 5000, True Vision Cage - Absolute best, original, ther is no better

Shoulders - Syngergy 900 - awsome, microbacterial lining drys fast

Elbows - Bauer 8000 love the 3 piece, fits great, protects great

Pants - old school bauer vapor 8 girdle, always loved girdles but its fallin' apart, going to go with new one90 pants I think

Shins - old school bauer vapor 6's had them for about 6 seasons, way overdue for new ones, although they are the BEST!!!!!! (12inchers, im probably a 14 by now) im going with one90 all the way

Gloves - Vapor XXX feels best on your hand, sticks always feel best with these plams, they rock!!!

Skates - Vapor XXX these were like butter when I 1st tried them on, unbelievable feel, a little stiff but I like that, definantley going to go with the Vapor XXXX's when they come by in june, and get the thoughts of vector ovechkins out of my mind

Sticks - one90 - awsome power, slapper from the blue feels like im playing with a corked bat compare the vapor XX, although very comparable to the Vapor XXX-lite, which does have a better feel.

I LOVE MY GEAR.

Hearing good things is getting me more psyched for my XXX gloves. Can't wait to get them and head to the rink. Between them and my 8k's my hands are in good shape whether I play forward or back on D.
