Baller ForrestGump Posted February 1, 2014 Baller Share Posted February 1, 2014 Bruce, Apolo Ohno was the speaker at my company event on Thursday. Afterwards I spoke to him for a bit, discussing similarities in our sports(it was surprising to hear how similar it was). He was very complimentary of your products. Very cool to see you get some publicity on tv, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas6 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 @Brewski - very cool. How are you currently setting up the release from those? And how do you see the product evolving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef23 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Very cool. I loved seeing your ski in the background with no bindings on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewski Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 @Texas6 I set the heal clip@56mm per Reflex factory instructions. KLP and I both find it helps to add a little 2mm riser to the heal. Take a good look at the clip it works wonders for twisting falls, low profile and it is covered (padded) so it does not rip the hell out of your shin. Toe loops go where the foot points them and they are adjustable if a little rotation if needed. Bondo or Epoxy putty works to hold the heal in a rock solid location. Hence the scuffed area on the high polished plate. They are 100% heat moldable and we find it takes some tweaking just like the ice boots. They are kind of like a good hiking boot. They take time to break in and conform 100% There is a time period where your foot gets used to the boot and the boot gets used to your foot. Then BOOM look out~!~ As far as the product evolving: Unfortunately I don't see me doing this like the lone ranger skate maker. I would love to see one of the big guys bring me on an turn me loose.

KcSwerver Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Love the new A3 you have hangin around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewski Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 @KcSwerver thanks for noticing the A3 they traded me the ski for the boot and plate for Kris. Very nice of Dave at HO to help Kris/Me out like that. THANKS out to him/them for the trade~! Would be nice to be fully "SYNDICATED" and go big. This group focused only on "OLYMPIC" products. There was another channel here KOMU 8 (Columbia, MO) and there is more talk of other products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marco Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 @Brewski - I was watching the distance skating last night and was wondering if you make any of those skates as well, or only the short track skates. Way cool to have your handiwork on display at the Olympics! Congrats again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewski Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 @Marco I used to build lots of LT (long track) boots and Inline also. The last 4 yrs I just focused on ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
