I was hoping that was a video of those fancy skating moves he put on later. He was just swerving the poo poo out of people in the corner.

Filling it out. Also HOLY gently caress GUYS: Warning: Shinpad use may increase concussion risk Edit: Doing this survey makes me realize how much of a gear whore I am.

cenzo posted:Numberchat: #13. Always and forever. No idea why, I just liked the number when I was a kid. When 13 was taken it didn't matter what number I got. I use a EQ50 and switched over from the S line (S19 blah blah). I think the RS is the evolution of those but they also changed it. Switching to the EQ50 from the stealth line was a big difference to me. I mainly shoot wristers and the kick point was perfect for me. The RS feels like it has a higher kick point and it super stiff even at the lower flexes. The Mako is the evolution of the EQ50. A guy on my roller team has it and I checked it out last night. It's pretty much the same stick with a paint job and way lighter. Keep in mind the EQ50 has a built in weight system for a custom feel and I actually prefer it over a super light stick. The EQ50 just feels super balanced.

The only difference I notice with the weight system is that you feel the puck better on the blade. The shaft itself I don't notice anything.

The roller league I play in is like this. I play in the lower division and it's totally not a low division. You will get guys coming down from the highest division just to play on a team. Last night we played a team that should have been in at least a division up. It's so dumb but the people that run that rink just like to keep the money flowing.

Ringers are just guys playing below their level, they don't necessarily have to be a sub. Could just be a guy that's friends with kids in a lower division and wants to play with them. Most guys usually hold back. I have a buddy I call to sub for my ice team when guys say they can't make it. He and everyone at the rink knows he is playing way below his level. He usually holds back unless someone on the other team does something messed up and he may turn it on.

Gio posted:I didn't feel like asking the people in watch & weight or digging through google to find out, so I'll just ask here: Does anyone know where to buy barbell weights? Years ago I bought a weight set (just a rack and bench, more or less) for, like, $190 but never got any use out of it. And now that I'm no longer going to Crossfit (or plan on paying their ridiculous prices) I figured I'd work out this summer at home in my garage. The weights I have kinda suck in that they're metal and I'm looking for rubber weights I can throw to the ground. Kind of hard to buy a rubber weight set in like a sporting good store. I know for sure you can buy them from Modell's or Dick's (regular weights that is).

Gio posted:Yeah, this is the majority of what I've found. Nothing good. For shits and gigs, I looked up weight sets on Rogue Fitness and (shipping included) it's $500 for a 260lbs. set. It's not as bad as I thought, but yeah that's a lot. Cheaper to go to the gym at that point. My gym membership comes out to $600 for the year.

Gio posted:A buddy of mine goes to LA Fitness and has been trying to persuade me to get a membership now that I'm graduating and won't be able to use the school's gym. (Actually I don't know their alumni policy or w/e but I could probably exploit that gym from here to eternity without anyone noticing.) I told him he should just drop the cash and go to Crossfit because he's getting nothing out of LA. I'm sure as hell not dropping money at LA or Planet Fitness or Lifetime because I know I'd never get my money's worth there. Really depends on what you do when you're at the gym. Some people need a group thing to get them to work out or just a program to follow. I just started following a 5X5 program and I love it.

I think what time you go also affects how the gym environment is. I go during my lunch break from work. I also work in Midtown Manhattan..meaning people who are in the gym on their lunch hour are there to go loving hard cause they have no other time to go to the gym. However people are nice at the NYSC I go to and you can even talk about working out and bullshitting.

lazerwolf posted:Speaking of... Anyone use it yet? I'm in the market for a 2nd shaft/blade combo and I saw this was an option. I currently use the Bauer APX with a PM9 X:60 blade and I love the poo poo out of it. Instead of just grabbing a second APX as a 'backup' I figured I'd check out the new stick releases as well A guy on my roller team has it. I didn't shoot with it or anything but it's ultra light...way lighter than my EQ50. It was flexy as gently caress too and I use a 75!

Verman posted:I was at my future in laws over the weekend for mothers day, and the brothers had a green biscuit training puck in the driveway. After playing with it for a few minutes, it felt far better than nearly any training puck Ive ever used. They have a really nicely laid brick driveway which looks great but sucks rear end for shooting a puck let alone stick handling. Icewarehouse use to sell these and this is what I use: http://www.totalhockey.com/Product.aspx?itm_id=969&div_id=2

xzzy posted:Okay, to resurrect exercise chat a bit, have any of you have problems with your lower back wearing out after a long skate? I'm getting pretty bad muscle fatigue.. rest of my body is ready to keep skating, but my back is saying gently caress no to that. I'm not precisely sure which muscles it is, it's either the obliques or the erectors. Do you do deadlifts or barbell rows?

Yea seriously do deadlifts and barbell rows and you should not have this problem. They work out your lower and mid back.

I have eq50 gloves and shins and love them. I have eq30 elbows which are protective and light. I have eq20 pants/shoulders nothing special bout them but they do the job.

Thufir posted:Sometimes you have to take the ice you can get. There hasn't been a single drop in at a time I can go to since early December, I'd probably take a 34 skater session at this point This is surprising that they would even allow this. They cap drop-ins at 30 skaters at the places I skate at, minus goalies of course.
