A couple of me in the South Australian C grade comp.

Fit and mobility are completely the forefront of the skate. The pitch scares off a lot of potential converts. If they offered a more traditional pitch then you'd see older beer leaguers buying into them in droves.

It's no wonder you and the other fellas here love them so much. I went and tried on all the top skates, including the Jetspeeds I was sure I'd leave with. Of the traditional boots I liked the Jetspeed best, but had saved the Makos for last. When I mentioned wanting to try them to the kid there talked like he didn't want to sell them to me. "oh well those are weird skates. We don't sell alot. Last shipment we got of those was a year ago. If you break your steel it's harder to find at LHS. Not many pros use them. All my friends use Jetspeed." An older guy walked buy and dropped in "yeah but anyone who tries these loves them". Well anyway, they were more comfortable than the tennis shoes I wore into the store. I didn't realize a skate could feel like this and still perform. Baked once and am now waiting for a skate. -Jim.

Just had my first skate with them. Can't say I noticed any extra power, buy didn't really expect I would. They did make the skates more comfortable, so I'm happy with them and will continue to use them. Well worth the price of purchase.
