Thanks. I guess the only way to be sure is to try with my skates on.

How tall are you and what's your ATK. I was under the impression that a medium would fit me. I'm 5'9" with a 17 ATK. I''ve looked at the small's in store and they just seem like they'd be far too small. Currently wearing a 33" +2" Simmons 997 that seemed almost identical to the Medium 1S/X but now i'm not sure.

By all means! My comment probably comes across as negative and I don't mean it that way. What do you have in mind for the graphic?

If you're extremely wealthy or your parents are then I guess go custom, otherwise, I would stick to stock gear. You're 14 and more than likely still growing, custom is a waste of money at your age, hell you could growth spurt halfway through a season and not even be able to use your custom gear. I don't know Brian's very well so I can't help you with that. If money is no object then, by all means, do whatever you want but be sure to share pics with us!

I can certainly understand that. I almost feel like this is all stemming from that horrendous non-call on Kessler last year except it's only getting worse.

Come on. Don't tinfoil hat it up. The real problem is they left it up to individuals to make the judgement call at the rink and not being centralized in the war room. If it was the same department doing all the controversial interference calls things would at least be consistent.

How do you ship something like this? The person must have been persistent and they just threw something together so they would shut up. I don't want anyone to fail, I especially don't want someone with health issues to fail or be subject to any abuse but when you're business relies on such a niche position this entire ordeal is not a good look. I'm also generally very wary of a company that has issues maintaining and shipping stock for such a simple item like HAL's constantly creating new products every month. At some point, you need to focus on your bread and butter and create positive customer experiences so they'll be willing to try your stuff when you're comfortably able to produce those items.

Ordered and paid for HAL's Feb 2017 waited months, got some excuse that "my mailbox is unoccupied" at my building. Not true. Spoke on the phone with Jeff with an alternate mailing address just to be sure annnnnnnnnnnd I use Pro Laces now. They have my money I don't care anymore. Keep it.

A goalie I coach in Lacrosse recently got his mask wrapped in our team colours. Mario Design out of Barrie. They seems to do a majority of CHL masks. Works looks amazing in person and I don't think this guys process will allow for bubbling. https://www.mariodesign.ca/goalie-mask-wraps

Good mask, and a great price if it's in excellent shape.

Yup. Zero interest. @BadAngle41 Solid buy!

I'm only 37. I'll see myself out you old farts! Don't ask me to fix your computer anymore either!

@FIFTY-SIX are those sweet pads made of Bucky or retro-tan? If Bucky did you have to do anything to keep them looking that amazing? Are the leather straps across the shins fake? The whole set is just amazing!

@31Bradley Awesome pictures! @Punisher Goalie If you do end up getting new pads and are moving the 1S's, keep me in mind!

@Punisher Goalie What size are the 1S pads? Those are great pictures. I would love to play outdoors again!

I kind of figured as much. At least now I can stop spamming my refresh button!

Agreed. On an unrelated note. Is every post moderated before it's posted to the board? I know it's not it's just I always see a significant lag between a post being made and the "Latest" page reflecting the change. Not a huge issue at all and probably just more to do with my need for new posts all the time.

For the life of me, I can't figure out why Bauer went with binding on the 1X blocker. It always turns out looking awful and doesn't match the sleek aesthetic of the 1X line at all. It's gross.

It's funny the more I've stared at them the more they grow on me, that being said, Demko's new set is just awesome!

@daffy Very sharp pads!

Edit: What I mean by stairs is that the rink in my city is one of the oldest still standing, to get to the change rooms you have to go down a flight of 20 very steep stairs and it’s super narrow 3 feet tops so I can’t shoulder the bag up or down and have to drag it down and then back up on its wheels. The handles have held up admirably even when supporting the full weight of my bag with pads in it and soaking wet. I would never ever buy another bag I couldn’t fit my pads in with everything else.

Mine has red logos but yes I think it's the same one.

I don't see why not. It has lock straps for the zippers. Mine at least seems very well made and has to on occasion get dragged up and down some very narrow stairs where I can't shoulder the bag.

I use a CCM Pro goalie wheeled bad. Everything including pads fits with room to spare. The only downside of this bag is that you need a larger vehicle or hatchback because there is no way you're fitting it in a normal car trunk with pads in the bag.

These are all over the place. Looks like a pretty cool circuit themed design and then random claw marks. That being said, I wouldn't say no if they were free.
