No ResultGreat skate, Shot Blocking???
I have three kids playing hockey so, I picked these up on sale so the price was reasonable. Overall the skate is pretty amazing. It is lighter and faster then the newer S29. However, I think the sacrificed some durability to make the skate lighter. My defenseman uses these skates and absolutely loves them but, he blocks a ton of shots and where the skates get hit by the puck it leaves a small divot and a white mark the shows some de-lamination of the materials. Definitely made my son faster and his edge work has improved significantly from when he was in a NEXUS skate. great buy!!!!
Yup, shin pad tape.
Good stuff. Nice and durable and won’t leave residue on your socks. Holds your shin guards nice and tight. Nice to see a 3 pack, too.
A good standard.
Holds up pretty well and doesn’t leave much residue. With some decent wax, I can get about 3 good sessions in between retaping. Good standard hockey tape!
Great product - pricey, but worth it
We have used several of these grips and my son loves them. Easier on the gloves than tape, and is pretty easy to apply. We had a harder time putting this in the new Bauer Vapor Flylite, as we have always used these on Warrior sticks and it seemed to apply a little easier to those.
Don't Bother
Played two games with this and it cracked and started falling apart. The plastic molding kept it in tact, but I'm currently looking for a replacement.
Great Pants
I grew up on Tackla pants and loved them. Took some time away from the game, and when i came back everything is either Bauer or CCM. I ended up buying a Pair of 1X Lite Pants that just fell apart in a matter of 2 months. Saw these on HM and figured i'd give it a whirl. I was pleasantly surprised how light these pants are. They are incredibly flexible, and honestly have almost zero restriction as far as movement goes, but i've been hacked, tripped, and blocked quite a few shots and the pants are no worse for the wear. The one "odd" thing about these breezers is the little air bladder in the front of the groin, right next to the cup, i wasnt sure about them at first, but honestly by about the 2nd or 3rd skate you don't even notice them. Overall great pants, little on the pricey side, but from what i can tell (only 15-20 skates) deff worth it.
Great bag but.....
Overall really happy with the bag . Has two end pockets which hold my helmet and skates. Center pocket is perfect for my chest, elbows, shins and pants. Only drawback to the bag is the side pocket zippers come off the tracks frequently. Talked to a buddy of mine who has the same bag and he has the same issue. Could also use a bigger zipper bag in the center for tape, wax, wallet, keys and stuff.
Different than other brands
My son has always worn the compression pants and we decided to try the Warrior brand. It seems as though they run a bit shorter on length than other brands (the style seems designed to be a bit shorter) but the functionality is still there. Unfortunately there were Velcro pieces sticking through the pants in places, which poked my son while wearing them and certainly compromised the comfort. We also washed the pants once and it seemed like they were fraying spots already. These were a good bargain, and it’s been hard to find pants, but we prefer the under Armour or Bauer compression jock pants much more. He wears those for hours and it’s not even noticeable or an irritant.
Amazing product!! Made a HUGE difference
Let me begin with I'm learning to play, almost a year learning to play the game I love. With that said, this has been an AMAZING addition to my skates! It has helped me keep my toes down, drastically improving my skating and stopping. Adding this has also helped me realize the skates I bought a year ago are not wide enough (even after baking) so I will be buying another one of these when get a wider skate. Just one tip, use scotch tape to try the two possible widths because once the adhesive sticks it sticks.
Fits great on CCM Size 13's
These will fit a senior 13 skate perfectly and remain flexible after they are taken off. I previously used the plastic covers but had to perform more skate maintenance due to rust.
Color runs
Bought a red set for my son, within 2 weeks his holders were dyed red and it won't come off. Don't waste your money on these, spend a few dollars more and get the nylon version. Never had an issue with those.
So far, so good.
The terry cloth is nice and thick. Haven’t had any cuts or unraveling anywhere. I appreciate the thicker material along the bottoms.
Lookin good!
I was skeptical about the molded tips, but they hold up really well and so far haven’t had any fraying. The color options are very nice and a great way to put some color and personality on your skates.
THE BEST PUCK AROUND
This black puck is the greatest one around. It has given me a scoring touch like no other puck. It's easily the best on the market. It should be called "OviPuck" because it makes you just as good as Ovechkin.
You will not be disappionted
I have to start off by saying WOW! I currently own the hyper-volt + and other generic brands and nothing will compare to the Theragun. Let me tell you why, I am a adrenaline junky. I train to climb volcanoes and major hikes around the world to capture some amazing drone shots. So I am always sore or tense from the intense training. When I first purchase these massage gun i did not know what to do, except to stab it to where it hurts. However, the Theragun is a gamer changer it has videos and instruction on how to massage your body correctly. That alone worth a million bucks. The extra adapter will help target areas that I did not know can be relieve. Overall I highly recommend this gun to any body . Self care is priceless.
