TBLfan 25 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 Spezza pattern is great... if the blade wasn't shaped like crap. Flattest blade ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jbone 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 that 10k is not a ops it a tow piece standard blade. neverless how is it is it? lighter than 7k shaft how is the new grip and shaft geometry.It's actually pretty good. The shaft is very light and the grip is unreal on it. The shaft might be a bit thick for my likings but other than that its a legit twig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dean_ 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 id just wait till they get to all the retail stores and get one then . its not worth spending so much to meThey will probably be cheaper to not buy it retail, I doubt it you would be able to get a 10k for less then 200.

robat 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I just got hooked up with a Vapor XXXX and a Under Armor Jock for $100. All from Western Michigan University. I guess I can get the 9500 helmet as well for $70. Will be doing that later this month. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noodle3872 40 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) Helmet: Bauer HH 4000 – The HH 4000 fits my melon perfectly and protects me adequately. I tried a Vector 8 helmet and it fits a bit better so I may be moving in that direction. Visor: I don’t currently wear a visor but I know I should be wearing one. Maybe Santa will bring me one?Shoulder pads: Sher-Wood SP 5030 – I really like the SP 5030. They are the perfect shoulder pad for a guy playing Old Timers.Elbow pads: Bauer Shift – Light, comfy, protect well and fit great.Gloves: Black Out TPS Response R8 Pro Lite – I love the way TPS does the no-seam fingers on the index and pinky fingers. The R8 Pro Lite offers great protection and looks good too.Pants: Tackla 5000 – I like the close to the body fit of this pant. I also love the protection they offer. Shin pads: Bauer SP 8000 – Light, comfy, great protection and fantastic fit.Skates: Pro Custom Bauer Vapor XX in Pro Stiff – Buying a Pro Custom skate was truly the best decision I ever made. Since these skates are lasted to my foot I get an amazing fit. The durability of these skates is insane! They still look brand new!!!Stick: Bauer One95 (PM9) in 77 Flex – Beautiful balance, nice soft feeling blade but still durable. I like the way the low-mid flex point loads for snap shots and wrist shots. Edited December 11, 2008 by noodle3872 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HattrickSwayze 3 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 X72's showed up today. Love the MSH2 palm, but they're a little tight in the fingers. It's rubbing my knuckles wrong on my left hand. I'm hoping they'll loosen up after I use them a bit. They do look good though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgoblue 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2008 Funny you should post that - I got my PPFs today and felt the exact same way. I've had them on my hands almost all day today (stayed in to study for finals), and they've started to feel much better, but they initially felt very uncomfortable coming from the pillowey 4-rolls.

I've had them on my hands almost all day today (stayed in to study for finals), and they've started to feel much better, but they initially felt very uncomfortable coming from the pillowey 4-rolls.Ya know my Synergy SE6's were the same way. They rubbed enough on my thumb that it actually peeled the skin off. But once they got broken in and sweated in a bunch, they loosened up quite a bit. Now my SE6's are unbelievably comfy. So I'm hoping once I get some ice time in these, they'll do the same thing. I've only worn these around the house a little today and the knuckles on my left fingers are a little irritated already. So I'm not looking forward to having my knuckles worn raw while wearing them in... Edited December 11, 2008 by HattrickSwayze Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
