Between the powerfoot and stable 26 socks my skates feel great.

You won't regret it. My skating improved significantly this season thanks to two things - 10' radius runners and POWERFOOT. Wouldn't want to be without either... ever.

Needed a new visor. Almost ordered another Oakley straight small online but got lucky and found this gathering dust at a sports store under the new HDO ones.

I just happened to see these inserts on Amazon while looking for laces for my new 190s and was researching as I had never heard of them and wondered as the one weird thing with these skates is the extra room by my toes. Based on this thread (and your helpful responses to everyone, Mike!) I'll be ordering a pair shortly!

I honestly can't imagine skating without these anymore.

Drop in report: Returned to the home rink. I actually was doing well today. My ear got pinched from a shot to the side of my head. No blood, no foul. I did let in a few clunkers, but more goals were from motionless pylons around the crease who were standing five feet away that would not even try and cheque the back door plays. Many I let in were tic-tac-toe plays that were poorly defended. That group even noticed my improved play, though I also had puck luck today. I felt okay about my play. Guess I have to go to that other pickup on occasion ;) They improved my game by a fair bit.

sounds like it WOULD be a good fit for your schedule, but to do you want this Capt pinning their (his) losses on you? I heard a dad the other day (who coaches HS wrestling) say. "Since wrestling is a 'one on one' sport theres no one to blame but yourself for losing. The kids who quit my team are the kid who need to find someone to blame, but can't because its on them" this guy sounds like that type of kid. i don't know i want to play for a guy like that no matter how cherry the scheg is. good luck tho, i hope it works out for you!

That's the messed up thing, yep beer league. We have A/B1, B2, C1, and C2 at that rink. There is a large separation of skill level between them. I would be above average in C1. One of the guys who recommended me to this captain was putting a team into B2, where I was going to be the goalie, but that fell through. This team is in C2. I'm well above the skill level. But this league would work out best for me because I have friends on other teams, and it doesn't conflict with other nights i already play. It's all too much for C2 beer league.

I wear a 7 wide in my graf's and got a 7D in the Makos and im fine. I have a couple pairs of regular width Graf's that i can still use that I have minor discomfort in, but I really didnt have any discomfort in the Mako's though. I've never worn Reebok's so i cant compare it to them, but i know that a regular width Vapor kills my feet. I dont know if this helps, but unless your foot is super wide i would think that a regular width Mako should be able to accommodate your foot.
