blues_91 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 usd rite? I can't see myself spending that much on pants, but then again I've never thought about spending $200 cdn on gloves/sticks, I'll probably go the model down though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3797 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 Nice work JR! Looking forward to seeing the pics. One question - are they keeping the Jofa 690 helmet? Actually, it is in the small Koho catalogue, so yes, it is still around. For how long, I don't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was just re-reading this post when I noticed this - anyone seen the Koho catalogue? What is in it (besides the 690 helmet?). Also, is the 690 helmet badged "Jofa" or is it changed to "Koho"?

opus22 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 (edited) i was curious on the rbk blade patterns. i know the catalog has pictures, but those are just copied and pasted from the ccm website. has anyone actually seen them? is the pronger a lidstrom? amonte the koho amonte? etc...just curious, i need to buy a tapered blade in the near future and i would hold off if i thought a rbk would do the trick. thanks.ps the pants look sweet.psps the website has the copied pictures from ccm, not the catalog. the catalog didnt do a lot for me either, though.

hocckey77 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2005 If I understand the 8k pant thing, you can take the shell off and then put another shell on? Does RBK plan to release different color shells to work with the pant/ girdle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the CCM is the same size pant as the Rbk you should be fine. Although, you should always buy a shell up a size so that it fits cleanly over without the bottom sticking out.Anybody have any ideas on why the girdle wasn't released in the US?
