Oh don't worry Bunny, you're not immune from the shit posting either!

Since this is my thread.

@Murray Passau C/A?

That's exactly what a misogynist would say!

Those are music artists? They look like they're in a different "entertainment" industry.

All that clears up is his obvious intent to getting a good whif.

I'm sorry for the audience that had to witness that.

lol wut?

(I know it's a different scene)

Eh, I'd argue against this. My current hollow after a fresh cut is just a tad too tacky, so I'll scrape up the ice by the sideboards to dull them down a tad prior to a game. This usually gets me 3 games of use before I'm looking to sharpen them again. If I go down a size in my hollow, i'm looking to get them sharpened halfway through the game. It's this weird middle ground that I like that I'm unable to get.

At the one year mark. So still a few months away. I can share any pictures of wear points if you're interested.

Thst boot looks buttery. I'd definitely go the route of measuring an inch higher than reebok.

I've had the SR R/GT since release. I've had one stinger in the glove where as I would have had 3-5 in my LT 90 glove in the same time frame. (and I'm playing against higher opponents) Aside from long term durability, which I'll cover in my review, the senior line is definitely more than fine for beer league.

So for you guys that tuck, how do you get the C/A to stay inside? I'm mostly referring to the sides.

@WizYuan That is one of the most horrifying things i've seen.

They're Bauers.

Welcome to the club. They're fantastic sticks.

They're good pads. Played in V4's forever. And yea, this was before vaughn started to put one piece cores into their pads. They'll have settled.

Man, every glove, even with the same break all feel different. For me, gloves and C/A's are the hardest to buy for as I can be incredibly picky when it comes to them. So you may be one of the few, but many goalies are incredibly anal about their gloves.

Tried it at home actually and the method I mentioned above was the one I settled on. I've been untucked forever. I did like the snug feeling tucked gave, just haven't figured out how to make it so the c/a doesn't pop out. I'll keep messing around at home.

So tried something different for my game last night. Ended up tying the front of my C/A to my pants (still untucked, with suspenders under C/A) Definitely like the change. Nothing drastic, but definitely felt more protected and secure. I'll try this some more and see if I want to connect it in the back and/or tuck and wear suspenders over the unit.

This is the only comparison i can find with my google-fu. Pretty much the same difference you see between any pro skate and the one step down. A slight decrease in features and build quality. It never seems enough to me to spend the extra moolah for a slight upgrade.

I don't think using Snow and Giguerre as benchmarks is accurate. they were the worst offenders!

There's probably enough of a difference where it wouldn't hold up in court? Or it could be opening a can of worms. Proprietary things like logos, names, designs, etc, are far easier to go against where as a structural design that's been around forever and is all pretty similar through and through wouldn't. I mean, do you want each company to start being able to copyright every single detail where progress can become stagnant? Or is having each company be able to draw ideas from each other to try and one up each other better?
