Is the customizer on line?

That's a commercial right there bro

They look thinner. calf outside wall seems smaller. Knee wall has more gliding surface. Outside roll seems smaller. Wish they'd show the channel in pics. If the trapper was a set break like the GT, I'd probably consider looking into the G5s. Graphics seem simple which I don't mind. The trend in the pros has always been more base colour than a mixed bowl of whatever. Makes it clean. Can't wait to play with the customizer.

I've been fortunate to have never really suffered a groin injury. I've had a few strains but no more than that. Otherwise, I've been dealing with an occasional back locking issue from being run into twice in one season some 20 years ago, Suffered a high ankle sprang during a sub game and finished the game (that one kept me off ice for a year). Two pucks to the throat, fortunately no damage. Unintentional stick slash to the back of the neck with no damage (thank you Maltese neck guard), tons of bruises for sure. I have to say that I've been lucky and grateful that I can still manage to play at a mid to high level at 51. My 30 year amateur career lives on

I've faced the lacrosse shot on a few occasions and now know how to handle it. My 2cents: I'd rather see a limit imposed on stick flex for players to avoid being injured by what we can't see coming, ie Webber and company. You want real shooting power, look back at Al Iafrate. 105mph with a wooden stick

Keep losing stones and next thing you know, you'll be shitting bricks Lucky you. I've been scouring the web for a 1X at a basement price to try it out. Trav4Oilers has a good review about this unit on the web (Hockeyreviews). He's still wearing his as we speak. Waiting for your feedback.

Anyone got to use the JRZ ones?

How's the visual when looking side to side, say like on wrap arounds or behind the net? The shoulders look pretty wide and high.

SR or Pro? This unit in a SR model has to be the most juiced up unit at price point when you compare pics to other SR level ones from other brands.

Where did you score that jersey bro??

Last time I saw a Lie printed on a stick it was the old Christian sticks I used to use in the 90's

WHAT!? You related brah?

Weird

My 2 cents... I'm 6'2 and that is irrelevant IMO as some of us have different length of legs and torsos and then there are some who wear tall blades and then some of us have low or high stances, and THEN some of us are far less flexible at the bending points (lower back, hips, knees, ankles) which will inevitably change this whole data approach completely. For instance...as mentioned above, I'm 6'2, have a 92" inseam (roadie cyclists will know this), I currently wear Bauer Vapor skates with the regular 1G blades and my stance has evolved quite a bit over the past 30 years. I started as a stand-up bent over goalie then went hybrid with a more squatting style stance, and now I have incorporated the b-fly quite a bit in my game the past decade which means I now use more of a wider stance. I went from a 25" to a 26" and am interested in trying a 25" again so I may work on my puck handling more. It's an ongoing process of adjustments and adaptations as I slowly age. If you're going to do this, your best bet is to create a data sheet that will incorporate all the possible variables.

Looking at these 2 pics and the issue you raise, is the side under-padding of the forearm under the bicep block necessary? Is there sufficient protection at the forearm itself? If so, the side walls could be removed. Just a thought.

I second the above.

Digging the new grafix. Flip them to the opposite leg and you got yourself some Eagles revisited

To add to this, and if you peeked at my Toe Tie Experiment thread, I decided to go back to the Pro Laces for last night's game. Better pad control. I'll just have to get used to the tight feel on my skates.

Nice, but hard to accept it as a design if you know what I mean. Digging the retro Warrior set behind though The Jofa cups were a gold standard in the hockey world, never saw a goalie version though. Have they kept it as the back cup on the new model you posted?

Craig, what cage model did you use on the Reidic?

That's my Beer League bread and butter

We are not ready yet I wouldn't mind a take 2 on the full front removeable skin pads from 2005 or 2008. They were a neat idea.

Almost 20 years ago or so. John Brown used to (might still) offer regular or full-right setups on demand.

Killer set-up! No doubt your screensaver
