All Star no longer has these and does not anticipate getting any more. Does anyone have a pair (or even one) that I can buy. Thanks.

Samurai Gears. Don’t be jealous. I’ll settle for envious. lol.

I pack mine to opposite. Plate gear and shoes in the top. Base shoes and uniforms in the bottom. Game day essentials in the top. Side picked hold misc stuff. I really like the ebag

^^^^^This please. The Douglas is great but, for that. I would love a pad alternative.

Opening day is Monday and this showed up just in time from halfway around the world. Thanks FedEx.

Exactly that. A quick search shows that there are off the shelf and custom force pads that would take a measurement and convert it to force reading. As far as the testing goes, a lot of us recall the awful results of the first F3 demo with Jim Evens in 2015. How did that work? I would have posted the video but its gone..

This likely falls into the category of "don't ask the question if you won't like the answer"

Thoughts and prayers are with you. I tore the proximal bicep two years ago. They didn't fix it. It doesn't seem to bother except the "shoulder" pain is all gone.

My son and I went to KISS in Indianapolis for the final tour. Great show. Saw them last in 1979. It was the best combination of a fireworks show and concert. Nothing better than a concert with your kids. We had/have tix for Springsteen in Philly

I’ll make it 5. It’s my go to when I know I’m going to see real velo. I like the Douglas, I trust the Adams but, I go into battle with the Cobalt. Just s as confident feeling. I felt the same about the S7.

Since then I have bought the All Star. I Can't help myself. I really like that one too. Once I got it dialed in, it fit really well and gives a better sense of protection than the Douglas.

Because these are the same people that still have navy shirts as the prescribed color. There’s got to be something in the water.

To me this feels a lot like the 1963 Corvette split window coupe. Everyone wants one because they can’t get one. If you want it and can get it good for you.

If was only the old Plus POS Zero Gravity frame with the TW pads. that frame was very close to the Nike Icon. I never liked the shape of that Honigs frame. It only worked well with their pads. It actually might work well with the All Star Mag pads too.

I liked the combo. I use the SG shovel. Since this pic I have powder coated the frame matte black.

I have one with a chopped TG if that would work. Let me know. I have the harness but no pads.

Another fine job by Tony at Mask-It Sports. The original silver was showing its age. Went with the matte black after seeing @Rock Bottom mask above. All ready for Spring!!

We all know about the “unicorn” chest protectors. Riddell and All American come to mind. What are the equivalents in face masks?

Easy. Find some golf shoes. I have a pair of Adidas spike less shoes that I will use on those days. I hate cold wet feet.

We have done this for several years. Works great. It’s a rule. It’s as enforceable as any other rule.

I have 3 pair of plate shoes and 5 pair of base shoes. You are making me feel like Imelda Marcos!!

Never had LASIK but I’ve done the mono vision with contacts for 10 years. I absolutely love it. I hated readers/cheaters. It took a couple of weeks to adjust but once it did I’ve never looked back.

I was half watching this and thought its a bold fashion statement that CB was rocking the red Rawlings titanium. Next time I looked up from my book, it was gone like magic. FWIW, I really like my chopped Adidas with the SG shovel TG. Couldn’t chop a Nike and risk the ire of @MadMax as others have done.

Welcome to the Team Cyborg Ump. Got my membership in 2020 with double total knee replacement. Never missed a game (thanks to Covid). Mine have been nothing short of amazing. I hope your surgery goes great. Rehab is worth every drop of sweat. Best of luck to you @MadMax
