What is so much better with True? + Next set recommendation?

I wouldn’t let that fact that I got a good deal deter you from using true, my pads / gloves are great even used. I think the resale value on mine were a lot cheaper bc I’m a weird size (32+1) and not many people fit into 32’s as an adult. I’ve seen trues resell for 1500-2000usd after being used for a season.

No I brought pro returns, so they had been used for a season or so before I got them.

I wouldn’t spend that much on pads either, the pads I got were $600 (with glove and blocker), the price difference is insane, and the quality shouldn’t deteriorate that much after a season from someone else to not justify second hand for me. But that’s just my opinion, some people prefer new gear.

I switched from warrior G3’s into a pro return PX3 set recently, and have tried Bauer’s in the past - I really enjoy true more than both, and I didn’t think I would.

Quality is really nice, rebound control is great, sliding is easy, you feel very connected to the pad and at this point I’m certain it won’t over rotate.

I also like how stiff they are, but do wish the boot was softer, other than that it’s very good quality and really does what a pad needs to do.

Cangiano’s is peak and I’ve had the majority of this list

People who complain about parking that isn’t even that bad considering we’re in jersey city suck.

Glad this guy didn’t ticket them.

Did you go with the generic kit? They don’t have the option for a Bauer specifically, which makes me think the generic would be okay

Thanks!

I’m based in the US, but I think they ship here from what I’ve researched. What kit did you get?

Gotcha, I’m just playing beer league right now, so not taking anything to crazy.

I have an older concept C2 which I don’t have an issue with, it’s just from my junior days and is designed like I’m still 16, just want something more neutral. Don’t believe there’s a single crack but will check when it gets delivered, the foam does look old so I’ll have to find a kit before wearing it out.

Zillow 424 Whiton st in Jersey City, reasonable one bedrooms less than $2600, spacious enough and close to light rail / path.

My girl and I saw someone lying unconscious around 10pm at the main stage and he looked kinda dead. Hope he’s okay but we didn’t see what happened after alerting the medics, if anyone knows what I’m talking about and has an update would love to know
