JR Boucicaut 3797 Report post Posted March 28, 2014 Right, and I'm not sure I'm willing to buy a pair of gloves that I don't like the fit of just to see if baking them will help ;)Most stores do a bake after you've committed to the skate purchase.what temp and for how long?I went 5 minutes. Put them on, work them in, then take the fingers and fold them back towards the glove.Had 10-12 guys using TPS HGT (precursor to R8/10) back in 2003 in LA by doing this. Weird how it has never caught on...Learned from you, homeboy! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chanxebyshev 8 Report post Posted March 28, 2014 We would bake gloves for people that were on the fence about a purchase. IMO it replicates what the glove will feel like once it has broken in. Not perfect but pretty close.Fair warning: don't bake gloves that someone has played in for any length of time, this goes for skates also. It amplifies any smell they have.

One of the nicest people I've had the pleasure of meeting. He would bring his kids to the rink I skate at and we'd chat about just regular stuff. Great gloves to remember an amazing guy. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoneStar77 25 Report post Posted April 4, 2014 Nothing special, but I'm excited to take my brand new Warrior Luxe 14" black gloves out whenever I get back on the ice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hills 712 Report post Posted May 21, 2014 Well looks like a bunch of posts were lost here... and I got new gloves again so I figured I'd post them!Got these Simmons gloves a few weeks ago. I always hear people say amazing things about Simmons equipment so I figured I'd try them out and see if they are worth the hype.First thing I noticed, considering the blocker is basically a clone of the Vaughn blocker, the quality and protection of the Simmons blocker is no where close to the Vaughn glove.Just received these Vaughn gloves and figured I'd get a picture of my new CCM Extreme Flex Pro glove as well.

flip12 714 Report post Posted May 28, 2014 (deleted picture)Cool! How are the AX1's, specifically in the fit between the backhand and the thumb. It looks like some negative space has been removed there compared to the Franchise fit. And what pattern on the stick, W28? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like some negative space has been removed there compared to the Franchise fit. And what pattern on the stick, W28?Definitely a tighter fit than the Franchises. Still a good style four roll. I haven't used them on the ice yet but they feel great. The stick is W03 although I was really tempted to try the W28. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bunnyman666 445 Report post Posted May 29, 2014 Just picked up these beauties last week. My first pair of Eagles! I just got a pair of Talon 90 as well. It is a strange tight fit when compared to my others (ppf 844), but the tight fit has grown on me. I think you will be chuffed with those. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flip12 714 Report post Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) It's wood. He's also dead, so 'used'.Was this post a glitch in the server update problem?Nah, not a glitch, you can see the date, April 2 2014--it was to photomatch with the MIA gloves that Penguin Fan 96 picked up, seen just above the photo of Demitra with the ONE60. And yeah, Demitra used wood for a long time, so Bauer did the best they could I guess, dressing his sticks as something people might recognize when they were shopping.

mickz 107 Report post Posted May 30, 2014 IIRC, the One60 was a catalogue product for Europe only.Pretty sure I've seen the ONE60 wood stick at my LHS in Canada before. Same graphics as the one Naslund used. Never held Naslund's pro model but the retail version felt very light and balanced. I have one of Demitra's black/blue ONE60 wood sticks from his Canucks days and the thing is a brick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
