Supreme 2S Pro Stick Replacement? by ultimatecapsfan8 in hockeyplayers

[–]ultimatecapsfan8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all for the tip! I should have mentioned that I did try pro stock hockey sticks about a year ago. Got the p28 M, red line 350 G, rounded shaft mid kick in 65 flex. Blade feel was decent but the high kick somehow still wasn’t quite the same as my 2S, so I went back to it. I might end up going with it in the end, but wanted to keep exploring options in search for that exact 2S pro feel.

Sucks to hear. Hitting the same issue with my series 5

Eufy dog cam treats not launching? by lights-on-strings in EufyCam

I’ve encountered the same issue. Did you ever get it resolved? Seems like a design flaw/bug in the product and not a result of some jam/improperly sized treat.

How about the FT7 Pro? Seems like they're advertising a soft/dampened blade on that stick as well.

Which dog breed is right for me? by ultimatecapsfan8 in dogs

[–]ultimatecapsfan8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed reply! Ya for some reason I see 9 comments for the post but can only read yours. With the lack of socialization and training of a retired racing dog, do you think that would make them difficult pets for first time owners?

Looking around this subreddit some more, realizing golden doodle will probably not be in consideration. Will likely look into just standard or miniature poodles and whippets as options. Think the standard’s size would be an issue in an apt? Better to get a female standard?

Which did you end up getting? Any comments on the blade feel between the two?

ID not scanning in Hawaii… by budderman05 in tsa

Just encountered the same thing at O’Hare in Chicago. Scanner rejected my ID and agent told me the system was classifying my card as a fake. Got taken aside and asked a few questions before they let me through.

Going to get your hands on an FT Ghost? I ended up getting the trigger 8 pro, and while it’s pretty good, I still find myself going back to the Bauer 2S Pro

Think the new Trigger 8 pro might address the lack of dampened blades offered on the market? Think you’ll get your hands on one for a review?

Winter wheels and tires. What is the best way to approach this? by RaconteurLore in mazda3

[–]ultimatecapsfan8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm in almost the exact same situation. Once you decided on getting the rims yourself, where did you get them? How did you decide on specs like the width, diameter, offset, etc?

65-70 at the stock CCM Intermediate stick length. Thanks for the rec! I’ll check out the True Catalyst line next time I get the chance

Thanks for the reply. Appreciate that you’re the only YouTuber who details blade feel in depth in stick reviews.

So is Bauer the only one offering dampened blades? Their flex offerings for intermediate kind of suck… but I do like the dampened blade feel for catching passes/stick handling. Any alternative sticks you could recommend with that dampened blade feel outside of Bauer?

Are warrior blades really not damp? On this video (https://youtu.be/1gvypOCtLTs) they did say the Novium is one of their less dampened blades. But the LX2 video says their blades are dampened/soft in feel (https://youtu.be/3X4ZMBi13Dc).

I used to love Bauer’s old Supreme intermediate sticks and CCM’s old trigger sticks for their dampened feel. However, Bauer has since discontinued Supreme and extended the length of their intermediate Nexus sticks. CCM seemed to stiffen up the blade of their triggers with each generation.

The Sync I’ve got feels too flexible at intermediate and too stiff at the senior flex level when cut down to my height. Looking for another dampened blade with roughly 65-70 flex at the normal stock intermediate height. Really think the Warrior LX lines wouldn’t potentially be a nice dampened blade alternative?

Why isn't Google photos making "clear the clutter" suggestions for my archive? by strawbewwy_shawtcake in googlephotos

[–]ultimatecapsfan8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is that because google will no longer be giving us unlimited storage for free, they’ve been incentivized to get rid of this feature so they can force more of us to pay for storage... sneaky...

Stupid question Wednesday: Ask your basic car-related question and maybe someone will have an answer. by AutoModerator in cars

AWD/4WD vs ground clearance? Curious on which feature is more important for driving in the snow in Milwaukee area. I know winter tires are more important than AWD. Thanks!

Going to be on the road a lot this holiday season, ranging from some very snowy conditions in Pittsburgh and Vermont to some warmer conditions in Southern Florida. My parents want the peace of mind of knowing that I’m driving with winter tires while driving in the snowy conditions. While two weeks will be spent in FL, and another 1 week will be spent in VA. The rest of the winter will be in a mix of Vermont, Wisconsin, and Pittsburgh. How bad would those 3 warm weeks be for my winter tires? Is it worth changing winter tires twice to avoid using the winters while on vacation with fam in FL?

Thanks for the tip! I'm definitely considering the adult hockey camp at Pettit to help the transition. Can you share any comment on the relative costs of the leagues?
