kovalchuk71 212 Report post Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Giving the Nexus 8000 a go. I LOVE the soft feel of the blade. The kickpoint is.....interesting. I still think I'm a LKP kind of shooter, but the release is still pretty nice. It's all we had at the shop (besides the MX3, which I don't like) until the 1X is released Edited January 23, 2015 by kovalchuk71 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kovalchuk71 212 Report post Posted January 25, 2015 Have you used other mid kick sticks before? If so, how does this kickpoint/release compare?It flexes right below my bottom hand. It kicks pretty well, but I prefer the "snap" I get from a LKP stick. The blade is fantastic though. Nice, soft feel. I think the flex profile is similar to the Tacks.

I'm trying to get the mid kick like the One95 I had and I've been telling people to look at Nexus is they're coming from T1s. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never seen that shape before, as far as seam placement.yeah not really sure my first pair of pro stock socks or anything for that matter. I remember when the edge stuff first came out the practice socks all had white going down the back of them in that V shape and maybe even a little lower.

In fairness he is usually the best skater on the ice, and they match his white cage so well. Hate away ModSquadders!One of his holders cracked a bit on the install, his replacement plan involves pure mirrored chrome. Love this guy.

Is he selling the grafs?He's hard to chirp as he burns you wide for the 100th time.I can ask if he is selling the grafs, they are 8.5ee if I am not mistaken.The thing about the one.9 + Tblade is it is freaky how light they are. Almost unbelievable, going to get them on the kitchen scale here in the not so distant future, just out of curiosity's sake Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KryptOng 9 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 It's been a long time since I've posted...life's been crazy in the past 3 years; ended my personal business, got engaged, got married, moved twice, the passing of our baby...so now I'm back and finally got the gear set up in the new home. Always loved the Supreme line of sticks from the start: One90, One95, TotalOne, NXG and MX3 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
