The bucket's cracked and the visor sits less than a cm from my nose, even with the mounting holes extended a bit and the shield tilted up. This is a backup, hopefully to never be used but kept in the collection. Gotta have Oakley, love that brand to death (boots, 2 sets of shades, goggles, shield, more to come).http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y279/rust...ar/IMG_1095.jpghttp://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y279/rust...ar/IMG_1096.jpg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rustpot 1 Report post Posted August 12, 2008 It's going well. I needed a spare standard shaft. Used it for a pickup- flex is nice and light to just take snap and wristers all night. It torques out a bit much, especially making or taking a shot/pass toward the toe, but the Lang pattern is so long. Using the same pattern and I was crapping out on the backhand shots, don't know what that was about. I've been off the ice too much and only used it the one time though.

Aussie Joe 0 Report post Posted August 12, 2008 Rusty, what are the Fury gloves like? The seem really stiff to look at, but one of the Imports for our AIHL team here swears by them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rustpot 1 Report post Posted August 12, 2008 The cuff is still pretty stiff- I haven't worn them on the ice though. The digital palms stick too well to grip shafts for my liking. They have actually loosened and broken in quite a bit from just 15-20 mins of flexing them while sitting on the couch. They went from tight and inflexible to a nice, looser fitting glove. I have them in a sale thread.The croslite padding also helps keep bulk and weight down, much thinner than traditional padding, fairly light for being full portofino. The padding can be folded and bent, only the thumb is rigid from having a plastic structure/protection. I've posted thoughts on them in the "Aeroflux" thread, as well as my sale thread. For $45-50, they could be sent to fixitbymail for mesh all around and cuff work and you have a much better glove for $60-65. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
