  1. After putting off this project for a few months I finally got around to getting it done. I source the crossform strap from a 581 glove that I deconstructed for "science". I removed the factory true wrist wrap by trimming the thread tying it to the palm area. Then I tried to use the factory attachment strap that goes under the palm but it was way too long. I then attempted to shorten it by sewing the strap shorter rather than making a new one. When they didn't work I ended up using left over lacrosse lacing to loop into the perimeter cord and foam of the back hand strap. The mobility feels way better than the factory true wrist strap. Only downfall is that the true nylon wrist strap is more interior than the ccm so it won't go as tight, which is fine for me. I guess we shall see how it goes.
  2. But I'm also a fat battle gnome that plays above my skill/endurance level. But that being said I will definitely be moving to the new pro spec unit as soon as we get them.
  3. I was in an axis 2 before this unit as well. I would say it gets 8-8.5/10 for hotness, it doesn't breath very well but the protection way better than the axis 2.
  4. I'm not a fan of the graphic at all but I can appreciate how modular and customizable it is. One of the few options I could live with for the fire league.
  5. Might just give the buyer the option of with glove. Might use it. Who knows. I ordered some Digi print eft6 yesterday so we shall see.
  6. low and behold... It's arrived today. Just in time to go with a Bauer set I'm trying to sell.
  7. Here I am still waiting on a glove or ordered December 10th.
  8. I'm not at the store till the weekend but I can grab some measurements if you'd like
  9. That's a 580 thing pretty much. I just learned to press the bottom hand down and cover the front of the t with my stick.
  10. Here is an eflex 6 vs a hyperlite 2. Hyperlite 2's curve isn't nearly as aggressive. Brian's is by far the most aggressive though.
  11. I plan on doing the mod myself.
  12. Hyperlite 2 set Silver/ green/navy Pads Medium Stock stiffness Stabiliflex knee Leather straps ( 2 calf are removable, top knee strap has had 4" cut off but is still lonnnng) Supreme toe bridge Removal boot strap Elastic toe ties (stock Bauer, not pro laces) Blocker Stock hl2 Thumb pillow Elastic in cuff cut for ROM Glove's Vapor 90 Pro palm Added DTC to palm Double t OR TRUE 20.2 (brand new) 580 PRO + SINGLE T Set is for my Sunday teams and just can't get use to them. Only selling to go back to CCMs. Buyer will get the choice of which glove comes with the set. Both can be included for more $. $1600obo plus shipping
  13. I haven't heard anything or seen anything in person.
  14. The new glove is a revision to the 591. First week of March? The ef6 customizer didn't release until April last year, a head of the release.
  15. The lack of sales also is contributed to people knowing what they like.. I wouldn't say people are uneducated because they prefer a soft pad to a stiff pad, nor if they prefer a hand closure to a pinching closure.
  16. Ccm offer's the total custom and total custom pro for skates. Total custom pro has more options in padding and face/eyelets placing (even or offset) and boot height +/- on the player side at least. Both with performed shells as far as I know.
  17. Both ccm and Bauer offer semi custom skates. Meaning they use pre formed shells that are distorted/padded appropriately for the print out of your foot scan. True on the other hand is a fully customized skate. Meaning it is pieced together around the printout of your foot from the inside out.
  18. After coming from ccm pro stock I will say the inner thigh 5hole padding is much thicker and takes some getting use to, definitely hindered 5 hole closer more than normal. I do not tuck, but I did take out the internal belt for a little extra room on the inside. But all in all the padding and protection seem solid.

    Vaughn SLR 4

    These showed up yesterday. Can't wait to try them on the ice tomorrow morning. Slr4's. Ordered mid November.
  20. I finally made the stray away from ccm/koho pants for the first time since 2005... Decided to do something fun as I was ordering custom for shorter length. Turned out better than I thought they would. Slr4. Xl -2"
  21. Damn you and your early access to the customizer
