This arrived today. Pekka Rinne CCM Pro with the Ti cage. This is the lightest padded mask I have ever felt.
-
Just saw this. Sorry. I do not.
-
Finished my Wolverine Brewing team kit I really enjoy my Cricut Joy for adding vinyl.
-
Please let us know how you like them. I kind of like this idea.
-
That is a great looking set!
-
They are Byonic. Since I can't get Tydan anymore, I'll try anything that isn't Bauer steel. I will review once I get a chance try them https://www.bbyonic.com

My new Graf 1080 / Vertexx Edge Franken skates....
-
I'll keep using Clear Gear, and I'll start looking for something similar to Andy's.
-
I think Andy is out for now. I am very bummed. He did say that he might get back into it down the road.
-
I am also a Handy Andy de-stink user, and was getting ready to send him a note to buy another batch. This isn't good news. I started supplementing the De-stink with Clear Gear spray, and it works well. My helmet and gloves get De-stink and the rest gets Clear Gear. cleargear.com I'll also email Andy and see if ordering 10 bottles would help encourage him to mix up another batch -steve

Speaking of Thailand made Bauer. These arrived today. Laurent Brossoit returns. Hyperlite boot, 2S shin, Ultrasonic knee block, and 2X strapping. I can't wait to get them on the ice tomorrow.
-
Convenience only. The traditional way probably performs better. I have made my life difficult when I forget to re-zero the holder for a different pair of skates
-
I've tried it multiple ways by adjusting the holder tilt or centering, but all I do now is run the de-burring stone on the inside edge like I'm de-burring, and then use the stone to flatten and dull the outside edge. I don't mess with the holder anymore just because it is too easy to screw it up, and I do sharpen other skates besides my own.
-
I buy every pro-return full right stick that I can find. Finding stock full right is difficult.
-
One night, three skates, no peeling, so a small sample size to this point. I did tuck the edges around the wing where possible, and used a heat gun to help remove any bubbling when I installed. I'll put two more skates on them Wednesday night, and check for wear.
-
This is a fantastic and easy mod. I put some of the 3M product on the knee wings of my VE8's and spent three games last night sliding like I was wearing my 2S or 2X's. No signs of wear or peeling. As others have said, I was even sliding on late game snowy ice. I will be doing this on my other non Bauer kits. I did not have any problems with my knees sticking to each other. -steve

Itech Bauer 961 mask for a large head?
beansbats replied to shadow47's topic in Masks + Cages + Neck Guards
The Itech / Bauer Profile 9601, if you can find one, does better with larger heads than the 961. I believe it is what Price wore early in his career. They have become a bit of a collectors item in the last few years. -steve -
Finally made to the basement....
-
Hahahaha! I haven't taken the pics yet. I suck. Sorry.
-
I will try to get down to the gear cave tonight and take the pics.
-
I have a set of unused Koho's that I'd sell. $100 plus ship. Would you like me to take some pics? -steve
-
I took a chance on EBay and bought a used Blademaster BHC2005 Height Comparator. It's purpose is ensure that the center of the wheel and the steel are aligned. It was adjustable enough to work with my Wissota. I discovered that my holder adjustment was off slightly end to end.

I'll need to take a pic, but I have a Red Line Pro 2 with a Campagnolo BMX kit down in the basement
-
Nice job! Let us know how it goes when you get them on the ice. How did you attach the cord to the skate at the back end? I might have to try making a set of these. -steve
-
It took me a little while to get used to my Fusion, but I love it now. I have always liked the break, it just took a little while to get used to all of the adjustments. -steve
