  1. It has the 581/591 back hand. Could be a pro only zombie glove? 580 construction and 581 backhand?
  2. Here are some clearer photos sent from a friend.
  3. I fucking hope so, ccm "pro" retail chestys suckass.
  4. I personally felt more stability in the 1 piece due to its completely rigid construction. I feel rivets will have a tendency to flex a little with the plastic.
  5. One piece use less energy transfer and the pitch of the skate itself is more neutral than the two piece. Attack angle is also different given the height difference between the blades and boot. One piece only come in 4mm steel, while you can get 3mm or 4mm for two piece.
  6. The new tongue has more segments for flexibility in the skate bite guard, potential for laces to get stuck in there and bite.. The back seems more perforated than the last model and slightly harder on the back. Here's my custom 1 piece from last year vs the new 2 piece boots.
  7. Doesn't look like Elvis is in a 2 piece glove anymore. Interesting
  8. Looks a lot fappier than mine. But mine has been sitting in the room for 2 weeks.
  9. Comes with the territory of buying gear to give customers feedback. Atleast I used the 581 longer than I used my machs last year.
  10. Mine is pro palm. Total custom pro. Baked twice and 2+ skates a week since late July... even did ccm's tied bake that I had to do for the 20 retail gloves we have in stock.
  11. Glove presentation was also another factor. The 581 would present as open and stay open like I can the regular 580. Oddly enough the 581 almost felt like I had to pull the palm to the fingers and was a lot more effort to close. Fingers crossed that my ccm 580 pro palm is as buttery as my true pro palm.

  12. What size skates do you wear? Last time I got my feet scanned it said suggest custom due to width and volume. As for the 581, after using it 2+ times a week for almost 2 months I didn't like the stiffness, lack of finger stalls, and the t. I much rather the lobster claw than a mutated 590/580
  13. Not when it's for the better. I likes my 2 piece but the tf9's were killing my feet and I was tired of waiting on my custom 2 piece to come in. But the 581 was just not to my liking.
  14. I received my set July 23rd. Went back to my true 580 last week. Also went back to my true one piece skates and toe laces
  15. Was quoted 10-12 weeks. Currently at week 8.
  16. See!!! I made that comment about the cross form strap as well. Half tempted to send my ccm 580 and 581 out when it gets in and have a shop swap the cross form strap into the 580. But have since gone back to my true 580 while waiting for my ccm 580 and all my issue have resolved.
  17. The glove is in fact a 2 piece. Took this photo this morning.
  18. Tgn had them make him a 90 optik2.
  19. I ordered my 580 the week before delivery just Incase I didn't like it. Mine should be in by the end of next month.
  20. I have heard the rumors of a 90* Brian's, and they have done them in the past. I'll try to track down a 70xp. I have access to a 6.1 e+.
  21. I will agree that Bauer gloves feel different. I will also say retail/custom ccm 580 will feel different than each other depending on which assembly line they came out of. My only gripe with Bauer gloves is they are tight along the back of my fingers when closed.
  22. I have been in a 590 break since 2004 and wanted to give a 580 a try last year and won't look back. It does take some adjustment though. I will only use a 580 style from now on. For what its worth, the newly publicly released vapor 90 is almost identical to a lefevre 580 minus some things, but the feel is spot on. Hopefully by the end of next month I'll be able to post a true, ccm, and Bauer 580 side my side and their closures.
