The Skate Shed

Alright hockey people, I need your opinions.
When it comes to stick tape, what’s your go-to colour?

⚫ Black
⚪ White
🟣 Something colourful (which colours?)

I’m looking at bringing in some tape to sell, but I want to stock what people are looking for. Drop your choice in the comments. Bonus points for sharing a picture of your tape job!

Winter sure is in full swing this weekend. Contact me for your skate sharpening needs in Digby.

📸 Action Photography 📸

I offer action photography (and while all my examples are currently for hockey, I am available for just about any sport).

Single Player Package: I will come to your game and take photos of your player of choice in action. Minimum 5 digital photos. $50

Multi Player Package: Have more than one player you’d like photos of during a single game? Each additional player is only $30 more! You receive minimum 5 digital photos each (10 total).

Team Action Package: Want pictures taken during play of your whole team? I can do that! Contact me for more info and pricing.

I specialize in players in motion, so the majority of photos are of players during the action. It can range from making a nice play to a goofy picture of them making a mistake.

This is mainly for the Digby area, but willing to travel at an extra cost.

🥅 Calling All Hockey Goalies! 🥅
Looking to add some colour to your pads? I’ve been experimenting with my own and have had great results. I use stick tape to line the pattern already designed on the pads. It works especially well on Brian’s as they are indented. My taped up pads have lasted over multiple tournaments and games before needing to be replaced.
I would like to try it with different sets, and thus am going to offer this service very discounted while in the testing stage. If you are interested in having your pads taped up in a different colour, contact me. Offering this for $25 in the testing stage, add $5 if you’d like your stick done in the matching colour(s). Subject to colour availability, and please give 3 days for turn around time.
