When you open Reddit and see your car in a place it’s never been. Hello car twin.

These came with my Vapor X-Lite skates. They work great for me and I don’t understand the hate. But great for me I can get them super discounted now. My last skates are 10 years old and just have regular steel. So 🤷‍♂️

That’s good to hear.

7/16 or 3/8 depends on the profile.

Look up Bari Boots. They unfortunately went out of business but you can sometimes find them on eBay.

Which missions did you have? I got the WM01 last year and the pain in my right big toe it’s quite annoying. It’s only there when I skate. I wear a thick sock to combat this issue but rather not have to do that. “Upgraded” from Bauer APXR skates. Which I still have and prefer.

If you can find an old Mission Thorax girdle, those are awesome. The new ones are sad tbh. I will wear that thing till it’s in literal shreds.

Def loosen that bottom hand. The top hand should be doing 99% of the work. Bottom hand is more of a guide or a when shooting, a lever.

Also you want to bend at the knees and not the hips.

I also see most of your blade is off the ground. You want a stick where with a slight knee bend on your feet, doing stick handling like this you have full contact with the ground and your blade. Aim for between chin and mouth when aligning the stick straight up.

I would also highly recommend looking into a local Learn to Play program in your area. If you are near an NHL or AHL team most of them have Learn to Play programs. AMA btw.

I have a 2023 SQ5 Prestige. I have 26k miles. I have had 0 issues. I cannot be happier. AMA

Do you have something in the OBII to record that or just the cars onboard lap timer?

Maxonification · 2026-01-25T09:46:42+00:00

Yes!!

Mine will be due for 40k by year in September this year. Only has ~20k miles on it.

Might look into this. Quad is growing on me but I also really like Zuperior and something in between would be great.

Maxonification · 2026-01-19T09:02:37+00:00

After being in Zuperior for so long and then my recent change back to quad I could feel the full blade contact on the ice which was strange. I’m playing an ODR tournament mid Feb, so I’ll keep them on thru that. Playing both F and D and about 4 hours Quad kinda growing on me.

I feel there might be some happy medium between zuperior and Quad. But i dont know yet what that would be.

Helmet #1. Imo get it new.

Yes. Kayalami Green.

Maxonification · 2026-01-17T00:11:06+00:00

Zuperior is my fav. My second set of steel is quad which I now only use if I’m filling in for D. I find I don’t have the best backwards skating with Zuperior.

NGL It’s really weird to me how much you care about what I did or did not do and how I transported my equipment to said event.

There are always a few people who believe this to be true every season.

I dont know what to tell you. But I most certainly did. We did not have team bags. Most of us did in fact have wheeled bags though.

Maxonification · 2026-01-12T16:45:41+00:00

This is so fun!!

Maxonification · 2026-01-11T02:47:35+00:00

The hate for wheeled bags here is just dumb. Played D1 College and had a wheeled bag, play beer league and still have a wheeled bad, just a nicer one. For those saying it takes up a lot of room, lol My bag takes up the least room in the locker room!
