TAS33 Has New Gloves



Pictures are not the best, blocker looks much rougher around the edges than it really is.

Gloves arrived last night! They look wayyyy better than the picture which does reallly make them look much rougher. I will have some pics up shortly. What are your methods of breakin' these puupies in? Right now I am alternating between putting a weight on them to put them open extreme then cloed extreme and just meesin around with it a bit. It has been 7years since I got new gloves and was wondering what other methods there are now.

Also I have heard that for steam heat you can turn on you shower put a towel under the door and the steam will help break it in, is this true, how do you have the gloves while in the room do I do anyhting special after and for how long.

Used the new gloves on the ice for a little bit today, still have some adjustments but found the blocker great protection a well balanced aswell as everything was very light. But I do have one problem with the glove, my c/a has longer arms because my old glove was VERY loose at the cuff and did not have wery good cuff protection, so I used a long armed c/a to cover the area, but now it tends to push my glove off or my hand. Do you have any ideas on how to fix this? Something that I can do with the c/a or blocker? Or am I just going to have to adjust to the feel?
