I'll keep an eye out this fall. Looks like my main team will be in Maple Ridge this year, but I'm sure I'll be subbing in Coquitlam plenty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those jerseys are black, whaler green and sport gold. These match the matcon team which uses Tampa jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyers27 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 My bad... I must have forgotten the Beaver jerseys because I thought they were more based on Seattle Seahawks green, which that blue would go well with. It will really look nice with Tampa Bay colours 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even have a spare set ready to go due to a shipping error and excellent customer service from Michael at prolaces. Dude is top notch. Definitely appreciate the love guys. I'm very excited about my new set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MangoRhinehart Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Going to try out cowlingless once I get some steel in for these. Needed the top set of eyelets replaced and I had to apply some epoxy to the boot where the toe cap joins as it was breaking apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say that was trolling. I was pretty much just thumping my own chest, just because. I'm glad you dig it. Seems to be getting a few thumbs up from all around. I'll be honest, it does mean a lot to get a pretty positive response about my gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping Cam posts my new mitt when it shows up. They seem to be pretty good about posting colorful custom orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naz Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Tried to think of something smartass-ish to say... tried to think of a Surrey knock... couldn't, so... nice looking set @coopaloop1234 Better not leave those in a backseat of a car in Surrey, gone in an instant! There, I feel better after the Surrey comment now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was up there I got to try the VE8 1 piece for the first time and fell in love with it. It's a straight CCM clone, it seems. I really liked the flat cuff, the unique double T design, and how snappy it felt. My same color scheme and I modded the wrist strap to be a leather strap/buckle rather than the nylon slider. This will replace my V6 glove which has the curled cuff. Edited July 2, 2019 by seagoal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closer to the water it gets nicer. But the middle of Cedar is always a sight to drive through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilzz Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 On 6/27/2019 at 4:12 PM, TheGoalNet said: That's my assessment too. I have tried to note that in any reviews or deep dives I have done. Speed Skin is good on fresh ice. The worse the ice, the less it works. If you play at a level with Zams between periods, you will like speed skin. If you play beer league, there's a major difference between Opti-Slide and Speed Skin come period 3. With that said, some of that might be luck. Other than Warrior, I haven't noticed any brand tout their pads as working well on pad ice. It's probably an after thought. They test a material on clean ice, get good results, and then move forward with it. Definitely this. After using the EF4s one more time, it's like the way the Speedskin material is stamped that causes it to stick to the ice. What I mean is the dotted pattern on the material almost has a Spider-man "sticks to wall" effect. It slides just fine but it's almost like it's delayed. Whereas traditional jenpro/weave/Optislide don't have that sort of pattern to it.

I really really really wish they would’ve mounted it like two inches higher. I 100% agree with you. The quick motion doesn't feel like it's an anchor on the leg like the RRC is. Since its on the biggest part of your calf, right where the muscle is, it slides up and down. Whereas the RRC at the top of the calf acts like a really nice anchor point. I don't think it works well as a main strap on the pad. Even if there's science behind it saying it drops faster, comfort and feel are two huge contributors to a well functioning pad. I wish it was on a lace grid like the current Vaughn straps and could be adjusted to preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
