  1. The difference is that a Cubberly costs as much as three kevlar Protechsport masques, right? Yes- 100% custom with a paint job included, but the wait time was even longer as I recall! Not to take away from Ed, but that is a LOT of cabbage and a HUGE wait time! I would climb walls with that wait time!
  2. Again- he could do this for another 25 years, but you never know! Cubberly hung it up nearly two years ago. Of course he charged a HELL of a lot more.
  3. I hope we both enjoy our masques. I am hoping for a Roy, myself!
  4. What type of calipers? Where all did you measure? Would you mind sharing pix of that process? I am not relishing plaster of paris all over the place...
  5. I'm a bit scared of the head moulding thing! But I will do it! Michel says he gets two orders per week, but thinks it will crank up to three in coming weeks.
  6. What a testimonial! I was told there is only one size Roy helmet. I kinda like that shape a LOT. I like the rounder shapes, myself. So the six month wait has been the standard for awhile, eh?
  7. I got pushed into this direction because Shawn is shelved indefinitely at this point. After I keep getting cage shot and head shot, I am getting a bit scared, though not scared enough to get out of net! I was going to go with him. I will try to phrase this delicately, but Shawn says Michel makes a good masque. I take Shawn's recommendations pretty seriously as the man knows material. I am educated in composites as I used to build bike frame and parts. I sold my business ten years ago and had a 7 year non-compete. I don't know how much longer this option could be available. After all- he could decide to hang it up at any point. Whilst never indicating this could be the case, knowing his age makes me think you should do this sooner rather than later. That being said- he could do this for another 25 years! If Shawn gets everything settled again within the wait time for my Protechsport, I will have him build me a masque and will keep my place in the Protechsport queue. I am not kidding when I say living NHL history, so I am perfectly fine with a usable replica of a past hero's masque that stays on display.

    So they are just sitting around in good nick, then?
  9. ...and I will elaborate! Good, stiff elastics. High quality construction. The pads get re-centred quickly. Super cute Brianne McLaughlin using them helped make my decision, and she's a pretty damned good goalie, to boot. The additional toe bridge can be a pain, I admit. The lack of adjustability and replaceable parts could be bad, as well. But then again- if one part of the system fails, probably another part of the whole works would end up going, anyway. The best part? The cat that owns this company has his shit together!

    Just dig those pads. Probably would not not like them in real life these days...

    Schwwwwwwinggggg!!!!! Beauty pads!!!!
  12. Actually- this glove closes very, very well. In fact, Dennis probably built this glove.
  13. Not at all, as I call myself the "fun sized" goalie. Nah- I know that you have ordered a fair few custom items. And it seems that equipment is being made stock for HUGE hands.
  14. Yep - you know a THING or TWO about this stuff...
  15. Thank you very much!
