Did I skate too soon after baking skates?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I just got my custom nxgs in and I skates in them about 9 hrs (per pro shop rec of 8) after a bake and now I have small crease marks on the outside of the boot by the footbed. Ill post pics tomorrow but does this sound normal? Or are the skates toast?

Thx

If baked at the right temperature for the right amount of time, you can skate in your NXGs in 2 hrs.

(Emphasis on right temp/time)

Could be normal, could be where it molded around (your foot)

curious to know if you tried the skates before you got them baked to notice a difference on the foot in terms of them not being stiff and your feet being sore. cause i just tried my Bauer Supreme one.7 today on the ice for the first time and they were definitely sore on the feet cause i haven't gotten them baked yet.

2 things...

1. As JR said to hot when baked.

2. Skates to big and to warm when heated

3. Oh did you stand up when hot?

Reputable store that really pushes Bauer stuff so I'll give them the benefit of adhering to Bauer's bake specifications.

2. Skates to big and to warm when heated

They are custom NXGs so...9.75 D Left foot; 9.5 EE Right foot with AA heel

3. Oh did you stand up when hot?

No

Looking at those creases, my opinion is too much heat.

However, your skates will be fine.

Phew, thanks JR.

Other than this issue, I am very pleased with the skates and should have gone the custom route awhile ago. Thanks for the insight everyone!
