I still don't understand why we've ever adopted so much black in our jerseys. I know it's been done for a while, it just seems like it never fits.

Let's go back to this:

And less of this:

This one was awesome

WHen will Bauer get out of the dark ages and allow customers pick their own thigh rise? the "one size fits all" seems so 1999. I was sent pics of the exact same sized pro Ultrasonic and Ultralite side by side and the Sonics are a whole 1" standard thigh taller then Ultralite? nuts.

Easy Ultrasonic have a boot angle of 125° and the Hyperlites 100° that's why the Ultrasonic are longer

Started to work on a custom stick grip with an old foam core stick. The first cut was slightly to wide and still to far away for my finger to curl around. The second cut is closer to the handle and not as wide. Overall feels very comfortable! The next step is putting this on a stick I would actually use. I have two V1 Pros (not pluses just pros) and a 3s Pro (no ergo spine on this). The bauer is my main stick and the one that I ideally would put it on but I don’t know if it would work. If anyone knows if it would let me know!!

Look for VOGoalie on YouTube he gives all the measures on how he did his

Last Fall I decided to sip the Kool-aid and try the Factory Mad gloves by getting these from the swap:

They are now for sale to someone that has interest in trying something from this great manufacturer as I was so impressed I ordered this set which came in a couple weeks ago.

@Goalieinneed these are for you!

I already posted in in the gear showoff thread, but I think the new kit needs to be in the JRZ thread as well.  I also spent 45 minutes on the synthetic ice with them, and I am impressed.

Wow beautiful man!

Had Dave Wilcox reskin my gloves a couples weeks ago to finally have a matching set

My Fusion leg pads will be here Tuesday! i know this threads pretty ded but ill let you guys how it turns out, their customer service was AWESOME from making sure I picked the right customization options to giving me different graphic options based on a rough mock up of what I gave them. Very happy with that and that's really important to a small business like this. Will keep you guys posted on the set!

wow love it !

It's what I did for my pants ordered an XL wearing large pants fit well only dowbside is that are longer than goalie pants because they are made for player

Man, has Bauer ever put out a good looking stock pad? I can't think of one even going back to the Nike days.

It's a good thing they're able to print almost any design you want, their stock gear is so damn boring.

The total one and NXG weren't that bad IMO

I don't really have any big gear regrets but i'd say back when the reebok premier 2 came on the market i regret not buying the MAF all yellow with silver accent and buying all withe with yellow accent because i didn'T wanted to wait till they got a new shipment back and i wanted them now 

The knee stack sure looks different

If I was Domingue I'd have just told the equipment manager not to bother with the pad wrap 

Ahahah was just about to post the same thing 

Is it just me or they remind me a little of the old ccm gatekeeper graphic?

New CCM Tacks. Went down to the shop to try on new skates. Bauer toe caps still don't fit my gnarled big toe so I'm a ccm only guy. 

Tried on the Tacks, AS1's, and FT2's. FT2's fit alright but we're a bit tight. Which is too bad since I did want to join the cowling less crowd. 

Came down to the AS1's or the previous tacks. I was looking at the next step down of the AS1's (which are identical in spec to the previous tacks) but then I was given an offer of the tacks at $250CAD. So $500 off of retail price. 

Happy with my purchase and am excited to get these going. 

Nice skates man was gonna buy some as1 too before i got a sweet deal on vh

Now that I’m a “suspenders guy” again, decided to try out a set of @KovaGoalie. Build quality is outstanding and they arrived much faster than expected. I was particularly drawn to the design with the adjustment slides in back because I like to tuck the suspenders straps between the clavicle area and the should floater. Only downside I can see is that I’ll need to spend time dialing the fit in at home because locker room adjustment seems like it would be difficult. 

Love the "Castle" name in the back
