anyone get annoyed when some1 flexes your sticks?

Recommended Posts

I hate it so much now, I won't even let anyone touch my SE16s at practice because someone wanted to "see" my Kronik when they first came out and flexed it so much that it snapped... 42 days after I bought it

So much for "I won't even let anyone touch my SE16s." I went to practice today and put my equipment in the dressing room, put my undergarments on then forgot my gatorade. Went to get it, 5 mins later my stick was missing, my equipments are soaked. my skates are filled with water. found my stick broken in half. :angry: :(

Guys I played with at least don't put their weight into the stick and lean into it, but it still feels like watching my kid dart towards the street when someone wants to test what a 120/180 feels like. I normally don't care about that sort of stuff, but it's not like the sticks I use are readily available anywhere. I'm not Bruce Wayne. Blacking out most sticks does tend to help since no one will see what it is.

Let's hope it's water, I've seen some pee-soaked equipment, the ultimate douche-move... sorry to hear that happened.

Wetting the gear while your back is turned it dirty pool, but I'd be more pissed off that they broke the SE16.

The gear will dry out. What are you gonna do with 2 halves of an OPS?

I'd be angry to say the least. Fuck your teammates.

I truly feel that equipment is one of the few things you have the right to be a dick about. I do not let people tough my gear...period...unless I trust them enough to know they respect it as much as I do...and that list is VERY short. Hell, those that I trust I will allow to borrow my gloves and sticks, because I know if anything goes wrong they will replace it...as I would. I would also NEVER leave my bag unattended. I just never trust easily.

I know this thread is about people not showing any manners & failing to respect your hockey sticks.

Figured I'd share this story w/ all of you. This is not involving my stick though. I do agree that people who put all their weight to see how good your stick will flex is annoying. My friend did this to my nike bauer ONE95 and I felt my baby's pain... he was stressing the flex point.. Idiot.

Anyway- so some guy sees my NIKE/BAUER 4-roll pro glove ( their famous glove... ). The colors catch his attention. I do live in San Jose therefore we're all die hard sharks fans and get crazy when we see anyone rockin sharks colors... Im sitting on the bench during Gretzky hour ( 1 hour where u can just hop on the ice and do whatever you want with no coaches around ) - Im cooling off...gloves are next to me... and the next thing you know some guy asks about my gloves... I take a look at his gloves. They are the oldest things I've ever seen with no palm except on the fingers...talk about using worn out gloves right? they smelled too!

He takes my gloves w/o asking, tries them on & comments on their feel. In my head I'm like... You could have just asked to see them...Don't know where this fool's hands have been!

Next thing you know.. I go back on the ice after I get my gloves back & slip em on. Two days later I start noticing spots on my left hand. I went to the doctor... Turned out to be a non life threatening fungus lol. This is after that idiot put his hands in my gloves!!! Took my gloves to go get cleaned & haven't had any problem since with fungus.......Disgusting huh?

what pisses me off is someone who wants to see how stiff my one95s are and then intead of like knocking it with a knuckle, and giving a light squeeze to see that it doesnt yield, the decide to squish the ever loving fuck out of it. nobody touches my skates anymore.

But your skates are adorable.

What size are your skates, like 23's? Maybe it's just the picture but those look like Shaq's skates.

Nice Pitch holders though. I was gonna do that with my One75's (even bought the Pitch holders) but was afraid the local shops would screw it up.

Some guy needed a stick for pickup, so i loaned him one with a crack in it not thinking it would break. The guy went out on the ice first slapshot snap. I explained to him that the blade was cracked in advance and it was no big deal but the guy refused and bought me the same stick (orange synergy it was awhile ago). But the stick snapping, that is the ultimate low. To snap someones $250, you must be more then hated. Theres a guy i played with everyone hated and we played jokes on him but things never got that far.
