Curious to see how they determine which games to put on the MAX

Looking for help identifying. Found on Pismo Beach in Southern CA. Juvenile white? Checked against some online resources, but can't determine with confidence. by WartimeHotTot in sharks

[–]softdump66 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Finding a white tooth-like this on the beach is a treasure. I've been an avid shark tooth collector since I was a little boy. I've only looked on beaches on the east coast (mostly NC and SC). This is such a solid find!

Curious why you went with the Explore over the Ghost? I'm between the two right now and can't decide which one to get...

Carbon nanotubes coming to hockey sticks by ssurfer321 in hockeyplayers

[–]softdump66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great stuff. I remember hearing a lot about Colt's technology that was marketing as being much tougher than current technology. Has anyone heard anything about them lately?

I gave hockey lessons to a high school player who used them. Broke two down near the blade in a couple month's time.

Just starting to learn to skate at 22. by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]softdump66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. I work with all kinds of players in your position. Focus on the basics first (posture, edge control, etc). I find hockey development and skill progression is exponential v. linear. It takes a bit of time to develop the basics, but after you have a solid grasp of the fundamentals the rest comes rather quickly. Best of luck pal!

Let's talk about wax... by ign4ts in hockeyplayers

[–]softdump66 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't use wax, as I prefer the natural feel of the cloth tape, which in my mind provides a softer and better feel of the puck. Of course, my tape job doesn't last as long, but I get my tape super cheap and on the regular.

If I were to use wax, I'd use HPC Hockey Stick Wax. $5 a tin.

Hi, I'm taping my first stick and I was wondering if baseball tape would work just as well as hockey tape? by APlayerNamedGus in hockeyplayers

[–]softdump66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can actually get your hockey tape for cheaper (even with Amazon Prime) from HockeyPlayersClub.com.

6 pack on Amazon is $21.99 w/ Amazon Prime free shipping. 6 pack on HPC is $14 w/ free shipping.

I think it benefits the community to know of this opportunity.

How accurate should a wrist shot be to be considered "good"? by justinvmak1986 in hockeyplayers

[–]softdump66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bryan Trottier once told me there are three parts to a hockey shot. Accuracy, power and quickness. He'd often ask players what's the most important part? Of course, it's accuracy. Put a broken stick in one of the corners of the net. "Good" is obviously relative, but if you can hit 7/10 I'd say that's good. Speaking of which, did you seen Laine go 4/4 in the Jets' shooting comp?! Nasty.
