My mask all together now. Wrap done by JF Aumais and cage/hardware powder coated by TWJ poweder coating. On it are shots of my son and I, the department I belong too, and from probably the largest fire in my career (over 10 different fire halls from 8 different towns from all over Muskoka at it) On the back I have the national war memorial, Canadian fallen firefighters foundation and Sparky the fire dog, my sons favorite.

I know too, thanks. Got my mask done by him and have had it back for the last 2 weeks. Just waiting for my cage and hardware from TMJ powder coating before I post it up. Turn around time for mine with the extra detail I wanted was around 3 weeks.

Patient's is the key right now, he is super busy and has been most of the last 3 or 4 months. Here is a post from him off Facebook yesterday

GDI stood for Goalie Development Institute, it was gear made by Dave Agtone (Vortek gear) . GDI was big back then for having alot of pro, semi pro goalies with them. The also owned From the crease magazine/paper that came out

Love to order from PSH but there rates to Canada are absolutely crazy. They get some awesome things in. Got the email about the new Warriors in and wanted to get more Rinne sticks but am pretty much paying for another stick with the shipping rates. Wanted a pair of $25 Cowlings but the shipping was $65 just for them.

Few that wear the Bauer Vapor 1x knee pads, off the top of my head Talbot, Rittich, Merzlikins. Halak I believe wears the Brians Optik ones

Thanks , that would be them and I see they added Potvin and Beezer too now

Couple of new masks showed up today in the mail..enjoy

Toothless/Night Fury on the pants, nice

Just curious how well Bauer did with the clone. I liked the 580 glove break but it was never offered by Bauer to retail.

Yeah the postal service on both sides of the border and customs on both sides have been absolutely slow. Am waiting on items from the US to Cansda that are going on 5 weeks, when before Conrona 2 weeks or less and they would arrive.

Any shots of it ? Always interested in one and how Bauer did the 580 design.

My pickups in the last couple weeks. Pro return Canadian made Bauer 1s skates, will be my 1st try at the cowlingless skates. Came across them in sideline and got them for great price. Below is a picture of them with my custom Bauers from while ago my good friend Rod at the goalie crease had done for me. Picked up a set of Pro lace armor to go with my custom 2x pads, and then Toppi from Kova sent these toe ties with a part that was missed from my custom suspenders. I appreciate it alot that he did this, guy has excellent customer service and quality products. I also picked up last month a very rare pair of xxl CCM pro return pants. There was not very many of these pants made in this size for the CHL and they are hard to come by.

Hockey shop has everything for sale now and instock

Kova order showed up last week, very impressed with the products. Neck guard has the gel upgrade but am not sure as it's still very hard and lighter then I though something with gel foam would feel. Anyone got this upgrade how does the gel upgrade feel ? Suspenders got them with the double elastic upgrade and really like them. Honestly I think these are better then my Duluth ones. They came with the floater ties, even though I asked for the single tie on the front. They look easy to come off but am seriously going to give them try. Again very well built product Also picked up up Kovas hiding mask straps. I like how they are done with the little loops on them. Again heavy grade mask straps with diffently last.

Yeah your correct, selecting TGN spec lowers the price down.

No leather attachment/no screws is the biggest. Also gives you the feel of the traditional skate but with the benefit of bungee

Most if not all equipment companies are shut down and not making any gear at this point.

Is it me, seen the catalog and looked it over see nothing new just the same Premier line like before minus the Lefevre name and some fancy graphics. Am I missing something??

There was a picture of the new 3s goalie stick online through Instagram, one of the pro goalie posted it. 3s gear wise I haven't heard or seen anything. Possibility 3s gear could be the level below the ultra sonic line the same way the 2x pro line, has the straight 2x line below it.

Have to order through a dealer/store in order to have that done.

I believe you got up one pant size on shells, so you would need xl. But I could be wrong ?
