Re: Goalie Mask

Yeah I am looking at 1 month for the battram stuff but I think it will be worth the wait.

Re: Goalie Mask

UofC C league is your best bet. Tho try and get out on the rinks for shinny it is the best way to kinda learn how to play in a rec environment. Get to a half decent level at shooting, skating and passing on the rink and then join a team. Otherwise, and no offense, you just end up frustrating teammates and no one has fun then

Re: Goalie Mask

LOL well I don't call $200 for a new set of gloves every year cheap. you get to wear more padding though, but your object of scorification is way harder

Hey Stonewall? What gloves are you using?
I use Uhlsport Aquas.. (no fingersavers - those are for wimps lol)
Where are you buying your gloves from? My team comp's mine, and my manager orders my gloves online off of eBay.. for $80/pr.. ive seen them in town for $170 tho.. barf..

Also for hockey, anyone play in the NCHL? I'm in that.. it's fun.. but apparently we're paying more than the avg...

Re: Goalie Mask

Why doesn't anyone make any vinyl overlays for hockey helmets? I bet they could make some decent money making custom fit ones.

As for soccer I haven't been able to play for over 3 years due to injuries. I have been using fingersavers as you call them since they came out over 10 years ago. I have fairly large hands so I fractured almost ever finger joint when younger and those gloves have stopped almost every finger injury after I started using them.
I played a ton of ball hockey when I was younger, should have played more ice hockey :(

I have a buddy in it, I play every week in HNA and the odd time I play 2 times a week. Looks like the NCHL is about the same.

Re: Goalie Mask

yeah im HNA and we play at least once a week. i'd say it works out to like 3 times every 2 weeks.

Re: Goalie Mask

This is the final pen work and the first coat of paint, I will get more pictures today with the final paint job on it. Neat to see how it all takes shape

Re: Goalie Mask

So where is the "This is FARTA" slogan going?

Re: Goalie Mask

I had no idea there were so many fellow HNA'ers on here...I put a team together with some buddies a couple years ago...we're the Moose in Div2. If we ever need a last minute tender, are any of you guys interested?

Re: Goalie Mask

I am always up to play some hockey (I will PM you my info).

Here is the final paint job, it does not have a clear coat on it yet so the colours will really pop after that.

I'm Impressed, Guy Does Nice Work.

Re: Goalie Mask

Yeah I can't be more happy and for that price it is an unreal deal, should have it Monday afternoon and I will be sure to take more pictures after the clear coat is done. There is a backplate to the mask that has also been painted but he is not sending any pictures of that because i guess it is sweet and he wants me to see it in person.

There are also a few things that don't show in his pictures, there is hundreds of little maple leafs all over the background of the mask between the gears. So there is a lot of fine detail in the mask

Re: Goalie Mask

They did an awsome job, especially for the cost
