I've always wanted to look slim and busty on the ice. Do they make it with D3O?

Wow that's a great option. I imagine motocross riders are in the same boat in terms of spine compression.

I think so too. If we consider that no matter which save selection you're using, we're told to keep our back straight, this would even have the side effect of keeping me taller in my stance/butterfly.

So brace may not be the right term. What I have in mind is not the giant medical contraption that pulls your shoulders back. This would be along the line of a velcro compression belt that goes around the waist. The idea being to immobilize the lumbar.

For the second time in less than two years, I have herniated my L4/L5 disc. This time, it wasn't due to hockey, but I was forced to play in the playoffs because my team wouldn't have a goalie otherwise. I'm seeing a spine doctor, doing the requisite PT, and even getting some epidural injections to help my recovery. My question for you guys is do you have any experience with using a back brace while you play? I can't go through this injury again and I want to protect myself when I am fully recovered and back on the ice.

Bauer does allow for color flexibility with their DigiPrint option. I had a custom shade of green made for my HL set. You might try asking your Bauer retailer. It helps if you go in with a specific pantone color in mind so you can give them the CMYK code.

Been using them over a year once or twice weekly. They've held up wonderfully. I have a little wear at the toe, but I suspect that's due to my pre game stretching routine which I do off ice on the rubber floor. Even my original set up straps is in great condition, no bacon. My Monster toe ties have started to stretch a bit, but I can just re-tie the knot and get them back to original tightness

Completely unnoticeable. I had the same concern going from 1x to 2x, but so far it hasn't made a bit of difference.

He's also got a low shot incoming, so he's already moving to get into that low blocking position.

Saros has upgrades to Axis, but keeps the all gold colorway

Sorry for the bad quality, got this off Twitter. Hadn’t seen any news on Rinne posted yet. Looks like he’s in a new LeFevre set.

I made a very in depth review of my custom 2s Pro skates a year ago:

The Bauer 600 break always has an overhang like that.

No I don't

I've been using 1s pants since they came out. That makes them 4 years old now? Still holding up, still look great. No tears or rips.
