Show It Off

there's some extra cushioning added to the side of it, which is why some of the XXXX logo is cut off

That was a mod that I saw them doing at the factory in St-Jerome when I went there. Basically a few pros were getting cuts in their legs from the edges of the boot digging into their skin (a problem I used to have with Bauer skates and still have the scar) so sewing that softer foam on there makes it feel a bit better.

Yikes.

You couldn't do any self-modding to rid yourself of that problem - or at least wear socks or something?

[JR Boucicaut 3801]

Well, I used to skate barefoot so it made it worse. What I had to do was cut up a tube sock, put it over my ankle and tape it down. This was before Bunga Pads.

Bauer Vapor XXXX skates

Bauer Wood Blade

RBK Edge Socks

Under 200?!?! DAMN

I rec'd my stick from the Mission Promo and I guess they were out of the Hossa and Boyes because they sent me the brutal ( in my opinion ) Rafalski pattern in the Fuel Ti, but the stick looks and feels light as hell.

Just curious, what's the turn around time on the stick promo? I haven't gotten said 'email' yet

[Dupes 1]

[Hockeyman11385 1]

No, there's a LHS selling UVM's overstocks. They are actually on sale right now for $180 with a warranty.

I assume its from Kevin Smiths, since thats the only place in burlington that sells hockey equipment other than dicks, did they have any one95's in the 100$ without warranty? Also, do you remeber if they had a good selection in the 100$ non warranty section, I'm think of going down there soon.

Nothing in the non-warranty for one95's because their entire stock has the warranty stickers. I didn't really get a good look at the 100 section. Nothing really jumped out to me. They definitely have a good stock of the one95's though.

If he does what I do, it's to get a feel where the bottom hand goes on shots.

Just because there is a warranty sticker does not mean it is honored by the factory. If they are claiming as such, I'd get it in writing just in case.

Agreed. Sticks used by College, junior, or professional programs have no warranty and with the logo on there, its going to be pretty easy to see that it's not a retail stick.

Those Missions look dandy... if you ever give up on them, drop me a line... since you basically started my obsessive Mission stick spree.

Missed the one90 hiding with the Eastons.

Waiting on the blade haul now, eh?
