I would go with what dre said, (all of it), but mostly the ACS bolt..I would break it in because that is a very common problem people have with the ACS when they dont break in the spring.
Also, where are you storing the paint before play? Always remember to keep it at room temperature, because if it is stored in your car or outside the night before you play, it will be very brittle the next day.
Welcome to the boards, and hope that helps a little bit.
