It usually takes too long to arrive here (weekends, customs, etc), so I really hope you get it reaches you on by then. Is that a standard VE8? Yeah, who knows with customs. But it's only a 3 hour drive besides that. We'll see. I love my current glove so I'm not stressing at all. My next game is 2:30 this Sunday and then pick-up every Tuesday night. Here's hoping. It is a VE8 Pro Carbon with pro logos and modified straps. I don't like nylon straps with sliders so I always get a leather strap/buckle and the overhand straps are tighter.

WOW. @TheGoalNet was right, this unit simply gets it done. Feeling of an old unit you've been wearing for years right out of the box. Arms are super flexible but still offer solid protection. No stingers, you feel the shot but thats it. Took 2 really solid rips to my right pec and left arm with no issues. Did have one goal skip off the left floater but i think that was poor technique on my part. Materials are top notch and I definitely was not as hot as my GT pro.

BadAngle41 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Feast your eyes on these... Premium CCM HD Toe Bridges. What makes them Premium? The fact that my old ones decided to die with only a month before new pads arrive... and on top of that my LHS doesn’t stock them so I had to pay shipping to get them. Maybe that makes them Premium Deluxe? For those of you who want a set yourself I included a picture of the bag with part number as well as the necessary tools to swap out the toe bridges and reinstall your Pro-Laces... enjoy...

Ha... ties are fine... the bridges were just 4 years old and broke down. HD was like tissue paper and the T nuts were tearing through the jenpro. I'll actually be interested to see what tie setup I find works best on the new pads... but for now... keeping as many bits in tact as I can for testing on the new set.

coopaloop1234 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 New CCM Tacks. Went down to the shop to try on new skates. Bauer toe caps still don't fit my gnarled big toe so I'm a ccm only guy. Tried on the Tacks, AS1's, and FT2's. FT2's fit alright but we're a bit tight. Which is too bad since I did want to join the cowling less crowd. Came down to the AS1's or the previous tacks. I was looking at the next step down of the AS1's (which are identical in spec to the previous tacks) but then I was given an offer of the tacks at $250CAD. So $500 off of retail price. Happy with my purchase and am excited to get these going. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) New mitt is here and I love it. It has an amazing snap and pop right out of the box and it feels game ready and broken in...first time I've ever felt this from a Vaughn glove out of the box. The internal straps are perfect for my hands and the pocket on this thing is enormous. Super impressed with this glove and very excited about pick-up tomorrow night. Unfortunately I can't post videos but I wish I could show you the snap and how easy it is to scoop a puck off the floor already. Oh yeah...these too .
