So I have one normal question and one really weird question. The normal one- how much of my handle can I cut off before screwing with the balance? I heard from goalie gear nerd that you can cut off as much as you want. Now the weird question- can I cut down my paddle? Like, can I cut the shoulders an inch shorter to make a 23 a 22? Oh and one other question, can I cut a custom grip on a bauer 3s pro? That is also the stick I would cut the shoulders on

Just was looking through this thread and noticed many large paddle lengths. For all you 27.5ers out there, I’m pretty sure bishop uses like a 25 or 26. I also see people talking about stances and how short sticks are for people with low stances. This is simply not true. Unless you play like you are in 1980 or before you make stick saves in your butterfly. Therefore stick size should be based off the butterfly so you have no 7 hole and good control of you stick during stick saves. Yes ideally your stick is on the ice in your stance but you don’t make stick saves in your stance is the bottom line. My friend plays triple A and is 5’10 using a 23 and is the best goalie I have ever seen with his stick. I am 5’5 and use a 23 only because 22s don’t really exist especially for full rights.

Have you ever used like a roughneck or maltese or eco pro? Its between the aegis or one of those

@SaveByRichter35I know you have one of these, is the foam in the neck part removable like the chest and clavicle part?

Getting into some comedical gear reviewing! Don’t worry @TheGoalNet I won’t be passing you up any time soon!

What were you dropping, the fact that you are sooooo lucky to get gear from lefevre, or the fact that lefevre is getting into the mask industry and you knew about if before everyone else?

Part of why bauer stopped using titanium cages, however bishop still uses them

Mine is the x1 elite. Was really a good mask while it lasted, except it lasted less than 2 years

It was a hard shot from a skills coach! I swear skaters don’t get any smarter no matter how old they get!

I just replace them when they look like this

Actually no the bends were on straight bars and I noticed my cheater actually has thicker, stronger bars

True

X1 Elite

Thats my issue, I had the mask for less than two years. I went through three cages in under a year. I had a bauer mask before and had one cage that never bent for 3 years and no damage to the shell. Just pisses me off.

Would adhesive really effect the mask that much to the point where it ruins the integrity and it breaks like this?

Its vinyl but he has no problem with bauer, ccm, sportsmask, or Victory

Yeah the wrap on it was perfectly safe, the guy that did it for me has done many masks over the years and has had no problems. Also I feel like if had reacted with the mask, this would’ve happened all over the mask wherever I got hit.

After 3 cages in under a year, and now this, I am done with otny. The only way I wear one of their masks again is if they replace this one for free. No mask should ever do this.

The pictures are from a few months ago but we were playing in Wisconsin

The lean, the Vaughn pve pads, the mask, you get the idea!

Finally have pictures of my custom gloves and mask wrapped

Saros with a new mask I believe

Since we don’t have an official 2020-21 season yet I guess this would still fall into this forums category... Demko with some Brians retros for his offseason training. Note no airpac logos

Proskategoal is having a massive sale today. Some skates are 50% off and if you buy leg pads for full price you get the matching gloves for free.

Anyone have a good frankenchesty? I guess thats kind of the same as beefing up a chesty. I want to try a vaughn body with brians arms. Vaughn arms suck
