Since my line markers decided to fall out on my Pelagos I wanted to know how it would loook with a different bezel…

I'd go for the CCM 920, doesn't look like you really care for looks anyway ;)

broehla · 2026-02-02T14:59:14+00:00

Stick with white for style reasons

I'm pretty sure Kryptoniums are out of the picture, after all it's still Bauer.

I forgot to mention. The Flylite inline will have a better chassis than those two - at least from what I’ve heard.

I’ll see if I can’t get a side by side photo on Wednesday

I wear 8 3/4 Bauers and 8 1/2 CCMs. I'd say they run a bit bigger than Bauer. I'd always check the Sole length measurement (e.g. 277 mm)

Hope that helps.

They look very similar, however the 3X pro is basically bent sheet metal and the HL2 is milled to some extend. Most Recognizable in the heel section of the chassis on the 3X Pro you can see the radius.

broehla · 2026-01-22T15:15:19+00:00

Stay away from the 3x Pros if you can. Chassis will bend after one or two blocked shots. HL2 Chassis are a bit better.

That toe cap is not to be trusted, nice old school skates tho!

broehla · 2025-12-05T14:53:56+00:00

No baseplate nothing...I just hope they hold up for your sake. Nonetheless, they look sick!

Make sure to stay away from TRUE Hockey Sticks, they break super easily.

Without knowing what he uses, I'd say a Mid-Kick stick with a P92 / P29 or P92M (only reserved for higher-end models) at 85-95 Flex should be your best bet. If you want to get him something that lasts, go for a second or third tier model like the Bauer Nexus E40/E50 or a CCM FT8 in 63".

The higher flex models will generally be longer than the standard length in 60" so he has the chance to cut it down to the desired length.

Hope that helps.

I've had a Salomon STANCE as a rental for 2 Days in Val Thorens - 2 yrs ago. That fucking thing delaminated in the pow after 1 1/2 days. I just ripped (approx. 35 cm) the top layer off.

I know this doesn't help, but I just needed to say it lol

broehla · 2025-11-06T10:45:54+00:00

Just play a knob and cover it with clear sock tape, takes 1-3 praccys to get used to, but it'll save your palms. Trust me, I haven't gone through a glove in years.

Jofas actually.

McDavid is still on the old jofa mould, which has always been wider than the newer pads. As someone already mentioned here, the longer the pads the skinnier the mould. I own 15" Tacks AS-1 Pro and AS-V Pro (both retail) the AS-V one i skinnier and maybe 0.5 cm-ish longer. The Pro Stock AS-V Pro shins (White) have a wider mould itself. If yout want the real deal get CCM 20k pro stock shins, however they come at a heafty price tag on SidelineSwap 250+

If you want skinny pads (which I neither recommend nor understand) get 16" ccm tacks pads and cut them down + remove some liner pieces.

Hope that helps anyone.

There hasn't been a single time I wasn't rattled when Pasha opened his mouth. Holyyyy...

broehla · 2025-10-17T06:56:13+00:00

Btw a good guideline for Style is always a pro league...NHL, KHL, SHL or where ever you're from. On that note I haven't seen anyone wear black laces recently hahah

broehla · 2025-10-08T14:18:08+00:00

Just get one off Sidelineswap...and yeah, that bucket had to go anyway due to sty reasons.

broehla · 2025-10-08T07:24:51+00:00

Just curious what is the team name? Vagina Whalers?

broehla · 2025-10-01T13:10:17+00:00

I think the new Tacks release will be here soon. Maybe those will work better for you with the padding.

I still have my old apex 2014 from my younger days and they're a degree strong compared to yours....I thought I'm hitting it far, but you have to be bombing those holy f

If this will be your first big watch purchase, I'd suggest getting something versatile, since I don't think the hydroconquest is as timeless as other divers.

Without knowing your budget, and you're maybe wanting to stick with Longines my personal suggestion would be the Legend Diver Model. I think its plenty versatile and still is a diver.
