My skates finally, after some fiasco with the holders and steel.
It's finally done, had a game last night and it felt incredible. Halfway through the game I felt confident enough to loosen the laces even more.
Credit where credit is due. The guys that I originally sent these skates to have the holders switched, mangled the job (bent the steel as well as a result). But Joe from B-Sharp in Ottawa was able to fix these up better than before, he actually called TRUE to get my scan and their build papers, and consulted with them on how and where to mount these properly, got me back on the ice the next day. Above and beyond work.
