@McKenney Hockey Sometimes it's the small things. Where does the toe binding end on the inside edge of the pad?

YES! I correctly guessed the top half on some! That customizer is gorgeous

You may be wrong but you may be right. Either way I'll like and that's all that matters. I always thought F&F corvette was kinda ugly anyways. This is also Texas which means it doesn't matter how practical your car is, it just has to be big, sound good, and look good. My car meets all of those requirements.

It's a 1972 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Convertible (long name, I know). It has a 455 cubic inch V8 that makes a whopping 250hp in a car that weighs over 2 tons and is 19 feet in length. This thing is huge but still not as big as they come. None of the other stuff in the garage is mine except for the tiny trucks and the hockey gear. All of the boxes in the car are empty, we just need to break them down and throw them out, We'll probably do that over spring break. It'll look much nicer once all that's gone. And yes, we do have the rest of the car, we just need to repaint it and put it back on. Maybe get the interior reupholstered too. Once this is ready for the road I will achieve high school god status by owning a classic, V8, convertible.

And here I was thinking I had already decided on new pads. The lack of weave was my biggest issue with the G4 pads. So glad it's here now!

Officially my new favorite trophy appearance-wise. I am now a Varsity city and state champions as a freshmen! It may be Varsity Bronze but I'm still a freshmen and could play JV next year if I wanted. One more thing, Varsity has now won this trophy back to back!

Also here's an actual picture of my car You know your car's big when you have to take a panorama to get all of it. My tiny trucks are also in the background.

@MTH, if you got an RS200 you would never have to buy gear again, people would just give it to you. 1 ride = 1 piece of gear.

A public stretch limo, nice!

Duh. It's hardly an achievement but I've won the house league championship every time I've played. Pro house league goalie (Can that replace the tag that says "advanced member" for me?)

After a little research, the team is the North York Renegades. http://www.renegadeshockeyclub.ca/

Figured I should start this off since the pictures are starting to roll in. This isn't a post that lists the specs. This is more or less a collage of all the photos of the XPG1. Potential factory colorways: On ice pics: Pad design pics: Full set pic: DISCLAIMER: NONE OF THESE IMAGES ARE MINE. ALL IMAGES SOURCED FROM INSTAGRAM (except for the potential factory design templates. I made those)

I've had my PAW neck guard for almost 2 years now. Nothing has come undone, broken, or torn. The picture below is from 2 years ago and it's still in the same condition today. Even the velcro hasn't gotten fuzzy.

I'm not old enough for prom silly. I've already got a homecoming date for next year though. That is my house league tape job. It distracts the shooters and has proven quite effective. My sv% has not dropped below 90% since then. I should have some pictures of yesterday's house game up soon.

Why don't YOU own a staff?

So you're telling me Vasi has one of those built into his stick?

@seagoal I presume the one second from the far left is your starter?

I don't have any more reactions for today Got it. Just wondering because I've put XPF in one of my helmets and that stuff's pretty heavy.

Is D3O heavy?

Mine went to the jersey. I need it.

@cwarnar Yep. That's it. I used my design template to try and get an idea of what the whole pad would look like with those designs. I'm liking the results. Obviously I had to guess for the top portion of the pad. The top portion could be pink and I'd never know until full pad pics were released.

Well, y'all know what happens when I get bored. I didn't want to wait for a customizer so here: I consider this my best template to date. I also used my template to get an idea of what the designs posted on McKenney's insta would look like: The top portion is probably wrong on most of these but there you go.

@seagoal Thank you! I was just thinking about how to pad these. That looks easiest and is probably what I'll do.

I re-learned how to sew this weekend and made myself a professor strap. Picture is pre-trim. Will get more pictures tomorrow.
