dstew29 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Figured I’d get in on the action. True 12.2 w/ L87 graphic ordered last week. Estimated around Labor Day. Here’s what I went with: Pads -32+1 -single / single break -stiff face -soft boot -recessed knee w single leather below knee strap -tight fit FRS w 2” nylon calf strap -behind heel leather strap (might ultimately remove but wanted to test) -HD foam toe attachment w skate lace (have a pair of Prolaces x TGN hybrids that I’ll switch to if need be) Glove -590 (coming from 600 Eflex3 pro return. Been getting some pop outs when holding upright so figured this was a good next step) -game ready w extra (similar to D30 I’m told) -double T w/ nylon -webbing at wrist -sure grip palm Blocker -595 (bindingless) -half cuff -straight finger protection -tight fit -centered -sure grip palm Design/Pics: -I struggled between 12.2 graphic and retro but ultimately loved the clean lines w L87 -I sub a lot still, no set team colors per se, so I figured I’d opt for a neutral colorway with a good accent color or two 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you posting goalies dressed in March when he was talking about games last night? lol We went through this a bit ago, but we added up all the starters wearing True gear and it was just shy of the 40% metric True was spouting. Never did the count with Bauer, but True holding 40% alone is a massive metric when there's only five brands in the show.

I would have guessed higher than that, but hard to say with guys going back and forth with demos. By the way @netminder, that's mostly AHL roster guys on that spreadsheet, no? And where's the other 30 teams lol? I may need you to make a few persuasive charts for me at some point. I'll PM you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriarGoalie35 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Finally going to get back on the ice since summer! Excited to really get a feel for my gear and try out my new Kova neck guard and see how the waxed elite laces work out. I did that “Ben Scrivens” lacing and want to see how it goes! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specs are damn near spot on too. 580 would make them perfect. Anxious to hear more about them once you have them. How far are is their lead time?

I'm a 90s kid so the lefevbre branding would have been a cherry on top. Have to say I really like the look of the True logos/branding on all their sets so that helps. Will definitely get some first impressions up once I break them in. It's funny, I think I took about a full week from the April 9 launch date to finally get my order into True. Over that week the lead time estimates were all over the map - as "low" as 16 weeks and high of 22 weeks I think. When I booked these it was 18-20 so I'm saying 20 weeks puts it at Labor Day, or so. When a saw those few recent posts on custom V9s taking 9 weeks it definitely stung a bit lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still getting used to cowlingless skates anyways. A little slippage in my right one and probably could use some insoles (I have pretty high arches) but felt great. I’m actually wearing correct fitting skates and I definitely notice a difference. Kova neck guard was awesome. After I started playing I barely noticed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welho Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 My AXIS custom set arrived today and it look amazing I askd earlier is axis game ready with D3O glove more protective than premier 2.9.

Now I can say yes it is more protective than premier 2.9 NIce set! I opted to for extra lower calf elastic and boot strap as well (although mine is below heel) and found that this setup works well for those of us who are on the back 9 of their playing days. Gives the tight to leg feel we grew up with (similar to EFlex line) but the performance of a modern pad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 These vinyl stickers match perfectly and look pretty good on my back plate. Since my new team is red/black I may change out the dangler laces to red and further tie in the eye of the Kraken logo 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriarGoalie35 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 After finally getting some more consecutive skates now that everything is getting back to normal, I love these pads and glove. The glove is hands down my favorite glove I’ve ever owned. The thing closes like absolute butter. The pads are so light and fast and hard rebounds and seal nice. The blocker is my least favorite but I definitely don’t hate it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
