He is actually a bigger gear whore than me believe it or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tamtamg 12 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 Wow. That's amazing. Minus the whole Red Wings banner and all. Going to go with the new X01/2? I can't tell what sharpener you're currently set-up with...Thanks guys, It is the X02..........what's wrong with the banner? :Ponly thing wrong with that banner is that it's missing 2002, 2008, and in a month or so, 2009.

One of the favorite sticks I've used, you're quite lucky your buddy had one lingering.I love it, only been one game, but it's great. I've never had a high end OPS before.Although, I will say this, it's a 100 flex, and it feels whippier than my 85 flex CCM stick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

][ncognito 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 (edited) I decided recently that I need to get back into ice hockey. I've been playing roller, but it's just not the same. I haven't been on the ice in years. My old skates were pretty beat up and a little outdated. I was planning on getting a pair of Bauer or Easton skates, so I tried on the Bauer X40, Flexlite 4.0, XXXX, the Easton Stealth S12, and the CCM U+ at the LHS today.The guy there suggested the CCM's first, so I gave them a try and really liked the fit. The XXXX were very nice as well, but they didn't have my size so those were a no go. The Flexlite were mostly nice, but the tongue was really stiff and uncomfortable to me. Outside the tongue the fit on those was very nice. The X40 were the most uncomfortable of the bunch. A decent skate, but the fit just wasn't there for me. The Easton's were pretty nice, and I probably would've chosen those if not for trying on the CCMs. On top of the great fit, the CCMs were baked which was new experience to me. I can't wait to try them out. I was a little surprised to be leaving with CCMs after going in for Bauer or Easton.My Bauer XXV's are about shot. I felt it was time for an upgrade on my gloves as well. After a lot of deliberation and forum reading I decided on getting a pair of Eagle PPF. So many positive reviews couldn't be wrong, right? Awesome, awesome gloves. The fit, the palms, everything is as great as described. So despite no direct interaction, thanks to all here who've posted helping me in my decision. :) Edited April 28, 2009 by ][ncognito Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
