best skates ever

2014 Winter Classic Maple Leaf Bonafide-X (for some reason marked as Franchises...)

+1 I was looking down at my skates today while I was on the bench and couldn't help but think how happy I am with them (10+ mo in). Sure they took a bit of time to dial-in (perfectionist), but now they're golden. I've worn my VH's longer than any skate I've tried in the past 3+ years. Before them, I was quickly becoming a serial skate purchaser - pulling the trigger on almost anything in an attempt to solve my foot problems and keep being able to play. I have the least amount of foot pain, foot problems and alignment problems in the VH's compared to any other major top-end model/brand. I'm on the ice typically 4-5 hours per week, minimum without issues. I don't care if my skates were pink with purple polka dots and unicorn graphics on them, as long as they fit well, perform and are durable within my personal usage. The VH's have kept me on the ice, pain-free, and I owe that to Scott.

Got myself new shins for inline. IW says that they are for recreational level of play but figured out that for inline they offer enoguh protection and are not bulky while allowing agility.

How sweet is this for the "Sweet Spot"?!?!?! Trevor Lewis brought the Cup home to SLC!

my favorite is when they try to disguise sales as "marketing"
