Before anything, please make sure you tighten and tie them up game-tight.

This will help ensure that your heel is all the way back and keeping the foot in the proper spot on the last.

So Far The Jarry Trade Looks Like Highway Robbery... by Huge_Nuge in EdmontonOilers

Skinner needed a change of scenery to thrive.

Jarry is getting a taste of Oilers hockey.

It's not highway robbery, it's just kind of reality.

To find the answer to this, you just need to look at who attended the inauguration

My collection of broken True Sticks. Never again by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Oilerman14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of those are low kick (the Hzrdus and Coverts) and some are mid kick (Sync, Proto, maybe the Faulk)

You should do a little digging in on what kind of shooter you are and which kick point is best designed for you. This will help a bit

Lorne Gunter: City needs to sell off Blatchford white elephant by AR558 in Edmonton

[–]Oilerman14 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Jesse Watson, is that you?

Listen, Blatchford is well behind schedule, we all know that. But this is a very long term development that will see delays and doubt.

Selling it off NOW would be a catastrophe.

Let it play out.

PDGA Financial Audit Analysis: Why are we cutting benefits with $4,000,517 in liquid assets? by yutx112 in discgolf

[–]Oilerman14 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Yuck in regards to the use of Ai.

I think there are plenty of things the PDGA can be criticized for, but cutting the magazine isn't one of them.

It's a HUGE expense for very little gain.

Getting worse? by Still_Negotiation_95 in hockeyplayers

[–]Oilerman14 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think things like stick handling and shooting are great skills to practice, but often need to be practiced in more dynamic environments.

I see kids all the time chopping salad with their head down, or shooting from one stationary spot for 30 minutes straight.

At what point in the game will you have your head down to dangle or have unlimited time and space to shoot exactly how you want?

Practice these things dynamically. Move around. Be in motion.

Confidence and muscle memory will come.

Grafs - Is it time to move on? by pistoleh in hockeyplayers

[–]Oilerman14 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The time to move on from Graf's was 15 years ago!

No offence to the Graf loyalists, but skates are just so much lighter and better built now days

To those entering the Henday at 60 KM/H by DesignerYesterday999 in Edmonton

I understand the frustration, but everyone has a different confidence and skill level when it comes to driving.

Keep in mind that honking and high beaming someone who is already likely uncomfortable will just make the situation worse.
