Ok here is the run down on the new Boddam chest protector.  The key here is options.  Beef up kit already included so not extra upcharge.  The unit is stock pro spec but if you want wider shoulder floaters then you can make that change.  Whatever adjustment you'd like you can do.  Custom colors and name embroidery at no extra cost either.  You can switch arm length. My arms are medium with a large belly.  The unit comes with two loops on inside of belly and one on outside.  Unit is very mobile.

So basically any change you want for one price.  I believe retail will be $499cdn.

No association as far as i know.  I called Jason and he said he had a new unit coming out.  Gave him measurements and this is what he sent me.  Full stock unit.  I'll explain more in Boddam thread when i get a chance.

Which rink was this? Look at how high he wears his pads on his skates!! And that's one BEEFED UP Vaughn c/a he's sporting.

I was checking out demo days in Winnipeg and the guy at the Vaughn booth talked about Coreau.  He wears the professor strap extremely tight and rest of straps loose.  Helps close 5 hole when down.  

Im 40.  Have had chronic groin issues since 26 due to arthritis in hips.  7yrs ago meniscus tear.  Was ok up till 2 seasons ago.  Major concussion.  Last season labral tear in shoulder (still working with it to improve).  Currently dealing with mcl strain.  

So much fun getting older.....

Anyone have a proetchsport for sale by chance?  All fiberglass is fine.  Need a backup mask while mine heads back to Michel for repair (again).  Theodore mold ideally.

Finally got the decals on my protechsport.

Iceberg graphic is awesome

Well Michel got back to me.  Said the chip in the chin looks like more than just paint.  Told me to send it back and he'll fix it for free!  Great service.

What do you guys think of the new JRZ gear?  Im curious if i could get an X60 pad made.  Dont need them yet but would be good to know for down the road.

For me living Winnipeg, all about local:

Trans Canada Lamp lighter red

Torque diesel fitter

Fort Garry Rouge

But love the reds:

Barking Squirrel red 

100th meridian

Rikards red

Keiths amber

In the dressing room I'm fine with a Bud light though

Awesome, im sure he'll be in touch soon.  I asked him abot my mask damage about 10 days ago.  I know he has to keep working to get masks out to you guys!

Hey guys, anyone hear from Michel lately?  I sent him a few pics on the damage to my mask.  Haven't heard from him.  Figure he's really backed up or on vacation or something but thought id ask.

How are you finding there? I've been really curious about this set-up for a few years now but haven't come across any boots yet. 

Haven't been able to use them yet!  Been out since mid February with shoulder issue.  Physio no help.  Sports doc appointment tomorrow.  Feel great in the basement everytime i put them on though.

I should note. The Makos are a size 7.5.  My grafs and bauers are size 8.  I went down 1/2 size, some guys kept same size in Makos as they had in other skates.

Long term or just in store?

Just in store.  Nice skate, fairly stiff boot but didnt have them on too long as they fit abit wider and knew right away they wouldnt work with my narrow foot.

Yeah im no help there.  I tried the GX2s on but thats about all.

How many in here have worn Vaughn GX1 skates?

Used the cowlings, does that count?  Bunnyman has used the boots.

Mako2s are my latest purchase.  Hope the long search for skates is over.

What benefit have you seen from the power foot inserts?

No that wasnt me.  Bought them from a guy on GGSU. He had his skate guy do that.  I was able to try both on.  Hopefully have time to bake tonight.
