  1. I feel the source for this has to shown because it's just so good https://youtu.be/bCAgJDBoWIU?si=RaVJNRhhEfvQxrJ-
  2. I don't think that's bungee I think he just has a loose shell over the pants
  3. Not so much a siting but a trend I noticed. While looking for a certain custom G6 set I noticed a year or so ago none of the European goalies in G6 used the slide plates but nearly all of them use it this year. Just thought that was odd and makes me want to give the plates another chance
  4. How's it tuck otherwise? With the first generation of bauer pro pants my chest would come untucked every save because of how low the waist was
  5. I struggled to tuck with the Bauer pro pants otherwise I'd likely do the same
  6. Just realized the hzrdus glove colorway is backwards again per usual with lefevre
  7. Brian's and Vaughn run very long from my experience. My small SLR3 pants were super long but still probably my favorite pair of pants. Might order some custom medium -1" or even -2" V10 pants when off season rolls around
  8. On my ccm pants I wear the inner belt snug, skip the front loops for the inner belt and tie down the chest with the lace in front. My warrior chest doesn't have a fight strap though that would be preferred.
  9. They finally started processing my application yesterday so hopefully I'll have a decision any day now but there's not guarantee since it still could take months
  10. This glove talk makes me want to to make a new way to describe break angles based on the angle of the break relative to the wrist strap (or something else perpendicular to the wrist) and the the location of the break on the palm. Ex: 60⁰ 1in I think 590, 600, and 580 are great ways to describe the shape of a glove but awful for determining the feel. For example Mach, a 600 shaped glove, feels nothing like a 600. G6.1 which I would argue has a 600 shape, feels more like a 580. I also think 90 degree break is an awful term because no glove break truly closes at 90 degrees. Vaughn has it spot on with 70. Which also means the 75 degree break is an awful term because it's more similar to a 55 or 50

    Truly one of the chest protectors of all time On another note, still nothing in the AHL as far as I've seen
  12. Happy to report swedish junior hockey has been going well. We won most of our preseason games and regular season started last week. Ran into a hell of a snag though because even though the swedish ice hockey federation has approved me to play, migrationsverket has not yet approved my residency permit and without it I can't play. Sent my application to Sweden in June and even went to the swedish embassy in DC to get my passport identity confirmed but still nothing. Anyone have experience with how long this process takes?
  13. Skinner rocking the same 580 glove 581 backhand combo as markstrom. This time with XF logos to match his set. Wonder if ccm is switching to the 591 backhand for their original breaks instead of using the EF5 backhand.
  14. Not that high thankfully. Gotta keep in mind there's nothing special in these chests. Excluding the sternum it's all LD and HD foams
  15. And very very very few are good at both
  16. Wait til you see the cost on this one. If it makes you feel better once you find the cost it's the same the pro guys are paying
  17. No idea but judging by this more recent photo it appears to be the same idea as last season. The black extension piece is still present on the backhand strap
  18. Yup I think markstrom and the equipment manager made it all on their own. The 591 backhand has the exact same lace hole pattern as 590 so I'd assume it'd be the same for 580 and 581. As for the lettering I think it just looks weird since it appears to be yellow lettering on a white backhand This is from last season but shows a custom attachment for the backhand strap
  19. Bringing it back. Wedgewood in an NHL legal hyperlite and a padded Vaughn velocity shirt with the arm pads removed.
  20. Spot on. Still has 580 backhand strapping though. He used it towards the end of last season and was probably able to make it by sacrificing the 581 CCM had previously sent him
  21. Agreed but I'm willing to at least try it. Though it's physically impossible with Warrior G6.0 gloves so I may have to sacrifice the HL2
