Nope. They had em for awhile, but they got snatched up. Were a few inches short for me else I woulda contemplated em.
God I hate that place though.
Anyway, getting slightly back on track:
Hit the ice again today, with the removed inner knee bits, and they're still kinda stiff. The S isn't sinking as much as I want yet, and since I"m used to the crazy tight hugging traditional strapping (using their new 'butterfly/hybrid' straps) the inner knees still occlude from time to time. REEEALLY hoping that strapping those down all weekend hard core will fix that for a game on Sunday.
Aside from that, they're still great. Getting used to it, and played against some guys who I later found out were like AAA, and felt like crap this morning, so my game was definitely not as high as I'd like, but eh, that's how it is breaking things in.
Ironically, I was telling another goalie how my c/a was holding up well, as crappy as it was, and I had 3-4 stingers today, lol.
