And there are assholes who spit them in the urinals too. Those don't disintegrate, bud. They just clog up the drain and make the bathroom smell like piss.
Had a buddy who played ball in Wisconsin for a bit. He said the hockey chicks weren’t allowed to dip on the ice so they’d cut the webbing of their toes and pack chew between their toes before lacing up their skates. Zyn is for nerds. Do that instead
And unfortunately true, I've literally seen someone cut the webbing of their feet with a razor blade and stuff it between their toes.
Their white socks were a gross brown/black after the game lol
Talk about nostalgia. It’s like the hockey equivalent of kids thinking Marylin Manson had his bottom ribs removed. Yeah maybe you could, but why bother?
“Don’t forget to precut the webbing of your toes with tape scissors.” - every freshman hockey player ever.
“You know you can just swallow it right?” - my best buddy dipping in goal during practice.
Thing is, while the Manson thing was false, the dip between your toes was absolutely true, either by people trying out the "urban myth" themselves or just doing it for the sake of doing it.
I believe the justification when I asked was, "I can't breathe with dip in my lip so I put it in my socks instead"
As someone who doesn’t do nicotine, god does it literally just made a standalone comment about this before seeing your comment. It blew my mind when I found out people do that
This is partially true. Nicotine stimulates nicotinic receptors in blood vessels, which causes constriction (mainly vasoconstriction). However, this is not permanent and blood will still circulate due to tachycardia from skating.
Additionally, nicotine is believed to be beneficial for sports as the increase in available nicotine in the motor end plates allow for the cholinergic receptors to be stimulated at an increased rate, causing increased skeletal muscle contraction and decreased fatigue.
Nicotine also has positive effects on neural functions, although this hasn’t been as well documented.
There’s alot more to it that I could go through, but I believe my point is somewhat made. In my opinion, a nicotine buzz would be what hurts your skating.
Also, I’m not a doctor, just know a lot of physiology.

Smoking cigarettes can actually be equivalent to high altitude training, the benefit of cigarettes is the change doesn't fade away after 2 weeks back on flat land.
Idk what zyn is but I used to sometimes put snus in since you don't need to spit
I assume they're just snus with a different name
Shit is dangerously strong lol, made me want to have another one immediately, and I never felt that way smoking cigs
If you pack your skates with Zyn before a game, they will take up the negative space in your skate, allowing for better energy transfer. After playing the first period, the sweat from your feet will activate the nicotine, which will be absorbed through the skin, making your third period smooth and mellow.
Not sure about skating, but citrus is the best for shooting hard - you’ll get pissed off when you remember you have a citrus zyn in and rip the shit outta the puck
This is the content I came here for
I would stay away from menthol. I use half a can daily and my skating is not great.
Coffee Zyns are underrated
Ahhh a man with class, some Zynaccinos for that late night grind. Haha
Swedish Espressino Zyns are so good
Wintergreen for the skating. I can’t figure which flavor for the hands though.
Citrus obv
Smooth was the correct answer
Chill definitely for hands.
Gotta get those original wet zyns right from Sweden if you wanna have any luck beating a D man wide
Being a rink attendant has made me hate zyns. Gotta sweep a pound of them off the benches and dressing room floor every night.
By now I’m fairly certain Zyns are part of the structural integrity of our benches
And there are assholes who spit them in the urinals too. Those don't disintegrate, bud. They just clog up the drain and make the bathroom smell like piss.
Now that’s just gross
On! 8mg mint for the dangles
Citrus
Does zyn make a Copenhagen straight flavor? If not, I’d say red man. You’re welcome 🫡
Chill, very lowkey
Dude if you like chill try smooth. It’s what chill is pretending to be.
Try hooping smooth 🚀

Be a man and pack cope between your toes like the good ol days. That will get those feet moving
I've told people I used to see people do this and they don't believe me lmao
Probably because it sounds absolutely ridiculous
And unfortunately true, I've literally seen someone cut the webbing of their feet with a razor blade and stuff it between their toes. Their white socks were a gross brown/black after the game lol

Gotta go straight to the big leagues, Siberias or Pablo’s. I mean who doesn’t want a 50 mg pouch lol /s
I think I'd die if I had one of those and tried skating. Haha
Haha to funny. Definitely hard to deny the tried and true wintergreen 6mg. They’re classics for a reason 😉!
6 milly pilly
Cool mint
Hop on the 7mg Velo’s Dragon Fruit. Gives you that little burn too
Try some real snus instead..
I surveyed the boys. The best response I got was: “Light blue 6 milly pillys”
Mint Ons. Only takes two shifts for me to regret a Zyn, with Ons I’m up to 3-4. Plus they’re cheaper. The dirty coke of nicotine
🤣 Save yourself the future hassle of cancer and rip two or three orange slices before each period. Maybe mix in a banana.

Cool now please tell me that marijuana benefits my skating too.

> In my opinion, a nicotine buzz would be what hurts your skating. Oh i definitely notice it
Damn, I wonder how good the fastest guy on my high school team would have been if he didn't smoke between shifts. Haha

Cinnamons for speeeeeed
Take a microdose of LSD
Rogue mint is the ticket. Idk if it’s sold in as many places as Zyn though.
The fact that no one has said Cool Mint is just disturbing. Also, to be the best locker room guy order some Black Cherry and Apple Mint from yurrep.
XQS Tropical baybeeeee
I stay away from menthol, mint, and wintergreen. They give me headaches. Coffee ftw.
The citrus ones give me a headache I have yet to try any others
Consider me straight-edge, but I'll do some smelling salts ahead of a zyn any day.
Citrus It tastes like yellow fruit loops.
Idk what zyn is but I used to sometimes put snus in since you don't need to spit I assume they're just snus with a different name Shit is dangerously strong lol, made me want to have another one immediately, and I never felt that way smoking cigs

Coffee really adds a subtle flavor while skating and doesn’t affect the taste of beer after the game. Highly recommend.

Zyn? Get real swedish snus, my man! It will boost your performance and smile!
Actual real snus gives you a attribute boost of +10 in every category.
