daffy

Bought these gloves to try out. Catcher break isn't for me. Still in pretty good shape. Small cut on blocker and one small one on catcher. Had catcher pocket redone in skate lace and deepened. Blocker and catcher are senior but blocker has medium palm in it.

Selling a next to new pair of Vaughn velocity 6 pads. Pads are 34+2" and have been used only 6 times. Bindings are in excellent shapes just puck marks. Pads do not come with toe straps but will come with one more pair of leather straps that were removed.

Wow, those look great. Love the shape of that catching glove. When you say the gloves are too big, do you mean the interior in relation to your hands or the spec of the exterior?

Yeah internals.  They are pro spec gloves.  I order my Boddam blockers with medium palm.  This one is large/senior palm.  The catcher would work if the finger stalls were shorter so I could get my hand into the glove further. Might be an option if I end up ordering new.  

Resident Boddam guy here.  After years of playing in Boddam hybrids, I thought it would be good to try to update the gear.  Wanted to try before ordering different style pads though and found a lightly used set of Patriot pads and gloves.  Gloves are too big so I'll leave those aside but looking forward to trying the pads.  Set had only been used by previous owner 15 or so times.  When I got them, I looked them over and was disappointed to find the calf wrap pulling away from the pad.  I've always been happy with Boddam quality but the nylon used seems to be too thin in that area.  If the pads feel right and I look to order I'd definitely ask for a change there.  Anyway, will follow up with a few more thoughts after I get a couple skates in them.

Looks awesome! What’s the purpose of the marine epoxy?

Sorry for late reply.  Epoxy just to cover exposed area.  Not sure if it's necessary but gives it a finish.

35+2 Vaughn V6 pads nicely broken in. I'm second owner and bought them during covid so barely used them. Carbon enhanced, double internal, single external breaks. Have minor wear on inner toe binding.

i will ask the obvious question .  r u ordering new custom pads? if u are then order custom sizing not stock.

 

No just eyeing up some used sets.  

Question on Vaughn pads.  What's the difference between 34" velo and 35" velo pads?  Besides the obvious 1".  In other words where do the take the 1" off?  I thought I read somewhere that the Shin of the pad, ankle to first knee break under knee rolls was 1/2" difference.  Then the other 1/2" was on the boot.  Can someone confirm that is correct?

Please take and post more pics of the next one!

As requested, more pics.  Finished last stick today.

I first measured my cuts.  Then used my multi tool for the cut.  Once the cuts are done, I used the multi tool sanding pad and rounded the shaft abit.  Cleaned up the stick then applied marine epoxy.  Stick is now drying.

Will do.  I removed the tape.  Shaft feels like it needs to be trimmed abit.  Going to sand it down alittle.  Will post pics when I get to the next one.  No rush we still locked down around here.

Final product.  I've got one more to do.  I used marine epoxy that dries white.  It's actually kinda soft to begin with so wasn't too worried about foam tape.  Bought wrong stuff anyway and with my usual tape job I use it feels ok.

How did I do? Did some practice on an old foam core first.  This one is my new Warrior Ritual that I bought with the paddle too long.  I think it worked out ok.

Hope they work for ya.  I have the option B at home and with my narrow foot, they just can't be tight enough.  Even with my custom True boot.  I like the idea of how easy they are and if one is alittle loose it doesn't affect the others.  

Look forward to a review after you've been on the ice.

Have a set of CCM Eflex 2 pro gloves for sale. I bought the whole set but won't be using the gloves. Previous owner bought them custom and used them only twice. Besides a few pick marks, they are pretty much brand new. Glove is 600 break and blocker has smaller size palm in it. White with abit of black.

$350.00cdn obo. Will ship at buyers expense. I'm located in Winnipeg, MB. 

I do have the pads as well used only twice.  33+1".  Might be a touch short for me so will consider selling as a set of offer is right.

So ordered some Warriors. Measured my old ones many times but I guess my tape wasn't in exact spot at the heal so I thought size was right turns out 1/2" longer paddle on the new ones.  I'll take one for a spin but feel it will be too long.  Just want to cut 1/2" off.  Have 3 new sticks to do.  Just not sure I should do it.  From what I read 1/2" shouldn't be big issue?  Warrior ritual composite.

Ok so I'm 5'11 and found some sticks online that I wanted.  I measured the back of the paddle on the stick I have which are 26" but with measurement come out to 27.5".  My new Warrior sticks come in which are 27.5" when measured down the back of the paddle.  They are almost 1/2" taller than my current ones.  I guess I must have had the angle of my tape wrong or something when measuring mine.  Anyway can't return and just wondering if you think I'll notice the extra height?  It feels longer but is that just all in my head?  Would alittle less than half inch be noticable on the ice?

I'll post some pics of my gear that I have on my work laptop - this is definately not all the gear I have owned or worn  this is the last 4 or 5 years worth. I currently only have the Fuhr and Wregget tribute sets & the retro Kenesky glove ( I bought it as I never felt comfortable in the Bauer 6000 one) as I have sold all the rest over time (I've never actually had more than 3 sets at a time).

The current 2 tribute sets are both Kenesky, same specs on both and I had the logos done by a very good and talented friend.  Anyhow I'll drop some pics here in hopes others post some gear pics because - well I just want to see more gear. lol  

Man that Wregget set brings back memories.  When I was a kid Leafs were always on HNIC and it was Wregget or Bester in net.  Watched them play alot.  Awesome tribute sets.

How long until you'll get a chance in Winnipeg to skate again? 

 

Did you ever try my Passau catcher on the ice or just throw it on to feel it a bit?

I think Hockey Manitoba is re-evaluating after Nov.15th as long as we out of code red.

Took about 10 shots with your Passau.  Recall pucks hitting the pocket on every shot.  Worth trying again I think.  

Still in Warrior?

New to me Passau pads.  Wanted to give Passau a try.

Always wanted to try a pair of Passau pads.  Just picked these up.  Interested in trying a Passau catcher 60 degree break with intermediate internals if anyone has one they would let go.

I'm 42 been fighting arthritis in the hips since 26.  Really limited flexibility on left side.  Been able to manage up till now with lots of stretching, exercises, physio, massage and acupuncture.  Now just not enough.  Can't get into stance or move side to side without pain since getting back on ice last month.  Have physician apt later this month. Going to push to get on resurface wait list.  In meantime have Prolotherapy apt at end of month. Figure it can't hurt.  If I respond to it, at least it will ease the pain while I wait for resurface.  Can't play at all right now which sucks.

Filled in for a tender here in Winnipeg last week.  First skate for me.  15mins before game.  Got out there with 1 min left in 3 min warm up.  Played 3 15 min periods with flood after 2nd.  Full benches.  Was fun to be back out there washrooms were locked so sweaty short drive home.  All in all not bad.  Need to up my speed getting dressed though.  I even went in my base layer.

Yep at least you are out there.  Have a buddy starting to play next week.  Getting more impatient to play as I hear about all you guys getting the skates on again.  If I can't shower then so be it, I just want to get back out there!

At least you can use the dressing room and shower even if they only give you 15mins.  Reading about guys having to show up part dressed and going home all sweaty, not sure how I'd handle that.  Hopefully our rinks in Winnipeg will allow for dressing rooms and showers as well.

Designed by Dave Wilcox for TPS.  Inner goalie glove.  It's for sale BTW.  Used twice.
