Inferno Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Stumbled across the True section, thought it could use this thread. I've got one A 4.5 and one A 6.0 True goalie stick. I've been very impressed so far, these are the first composite goalie sticks that I've ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim_TRUEHockey Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 It's just some extra tape for the ring finger to get extra contact. I saw Schneider to it years ago, tried it and it stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avc_03 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Nice pair of skates there @Hills is the fit everything you hoped it would be and how much of a difference does it make over retails skates you have worn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically an item should be worn at least a couple months before a thorough review is done. We (at our other site) don't allow reviews for items used less than 3 months unless it is specifically a vendor sponsored long-term review.

Usually you see guys put up reviews and all they do is pull the new gear out of a box. They rarely do a follow up after a length of tome and actual use.

We had some guy who wrote a fucking novel about products that he tried on in the store. He couldn't understand why we'd reject "such a well written review".

IPv6Freely Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 8 minutes ago, TheGoalNet said: Why does it need to be vendor sponsored? We have a specific section for vendor-sponsored (aka the user gets the item for free from the vendor) reviews, we call "Long-Term Reviews" and often will have posts with initial impressions out of the box, etc. The idea is that the user is expected to check in with regular updates, so it's fine to have multiple posts in the same thread. For regular reviews, initial impressions and the rest of the review should all be part of one post because those AREN'T "long-term" reviews.

TheGoalNet Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 @IPv6Freely - But if someone buys 1X skates, wears them for 3 months, and then posts... that is okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the actual review will be in a bit like @IPv6Freely said. Firstly I'll go over why I chose True and how the fitting process works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be True Temper bicycle frame tubing, as well. Come to think of it, I don’t know if they are even into cycling any longer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
