Is that AK27 a OPS? I didn't realise they existed at all. How do you like it?

Read more  

supposedly it is (altho to me it looks like it was a shaft with a 4 inch plug fused on the end fused onto a blade :lol: )

PHOTO TO EXPLAIN WHAT I MEAN (lines represent what look like fused points lol: ak27ci1.th.jpg :

but im in love.. stick is my boyfriend :ph34r:

I also have the AK27 OPS, from Jeff Friesen, the blade broke in 2 games, and he had the blade fused so tight that the re-bar trick didn't even move the blade a cm, so I have to use mine in the butt end. I hope you have better luck.

How can you use that many different curves?

Read more  

lol. idk. i find that i dont mind most curves. ive been rockin' the adrenalines until i broke my last one 4 days ago.

Read more  

I wish i had that ability it was very hard for me to change from iginla to forsberg/pm9

Read more  

I also find that depending on the game the other goalie plays ( butterfly, standing..etc.) I will use a different curve to get the puck in that general area (high or low) without too much thinking so I just have to worry about fine tuning my exact shot location.

Sakic is the only curve I've every used besides the old Yzerman which I believe is just a clone. Anytime I attempt to use a curve that isn't open I just can't lift the puck. I tried using Kovalchuk's toe hook and I still can't lift as much as with the sakic and even stickhandling is awkward. Just don't want to spend enough time trying to adjust. That is a neat idea though Hockey is life.

Im weird like that. Ive never used the same curve, lately Ive used the Drury curve because I liked how it looked(no bs) and then I bought my next 3 sticks with the same curve. But I can pick up any stick any curve, flex, what ever and just use it.

mission intake helmet

custom visor i made by cutting the bottom off an Itech concept II shield.

I like the dome but just don't feel the visor. It looks a little too boxy.

I love Tacks.

I grew up on them and will always have a soft spot for them. My brothers each bought 3 pairs of 1152's when they last went.

Mine are now RBK 9K's...but I would go back to Tacks in a second if I could find a pair my size...

CCM super tacks 952

I know it's a joke compared to your brand-new high end ultra light skates :ph34r:

Those are the last pair of Tacks that I owned before this Vector crap came out. They are missed.

The only pair of skates that I have found since that rival them in regards to comfort and fit are the RBK 7K's.

I'd take some of the "older" skates over a lot of the higher end stuff available today. Hell, I just switched back to Vapor 10s (remember those?) after a few years in Graf G35s and G35 Ultras.

I had a soft spot for them too... it was the tendon guard. :(

P.S. Looks like you have the same issue.
