Well.....i went and did some research and i found out that some people said that in 0ºF or below temeperatures the material used on hockeyboard can become as brittle as plexiglass and basically im asking if anyone knows of this or can back it up (cause from what ive heard hockeyboard is great) so if u know for sure just post i guess.
Thank You

Hockeyboard is sick in the summer; nice and slick.
I dont know about winter though, I dont hit rails in the winter.

sounds like BS to me... hockey board is one of the main materials used for topping boxes

think for a second, if hockey board became brittle in below zero temperatures why would it be used for hockey? skates hit that shit all the time, it deosn't crack, it might slice it but i wouldn't call it brittle

thats what i used on my boxes, which have lasted perfectly. puck board does not get brittle in the cold. you can see pics of the boxes in action in my profile.

Fahrenheit or celcius? cause they're definately below 0 celsius and aren't much high above 0 Fahrenheit in the winter, well atleast in mass they aren't i've had some extremely cold hockey games up here, the regular rinks are 10x colder than a professional rink
All times are Eastern (-5)
