Hope the general public can still buy skates, VH was doing a wonderful service to get great skates to the general public, as well as the Pros and lets not forget Rob and give him some Kudos with all his hard work! More importantly the skates just did not come off the assembly line but were hand made for each and everyone of us! If I can make a suggestion on many of us over pronators please bring back the MLX medial/lateral shift holders, I will be the first to buy!. If the Figure skaters need to be fitted with their boots and blades, so they are over their center of gravity, why not hockey players. It will help many, many people all you have to look at the statistics on pronation in the general public. Best of luck TRUE, I hope to do business with you! Alan

Tan Clarino was recommended to me by a few people I know that already had a pair. No complaints! Also I love your product from when I was using them in my Mako IIs, they really make a difference in comfort (I'm not good enough to know if my performance was affected).

The Kovalev is quite different. The rocker is more extreme: while the P28 has a relatively flat rocker on the heel with a more rockered toe, the Kovalev has an aggressive rocker from heel to toe. Also, the Kovalev is a lot longer than the P28. It's also not as open or as deep as the P28, and while the P28's curve starts gradually from the middle and curves smoothly all the way into the toe, the Kovalev has two distinct 'kinks': one at the heel and one at the toe. I wouldn't say the P28 has a mild heel wedge - it's straight in the heel until about mid-blade. Overall, the only real similarity they share is that they both have a pocket at the toe. I have played both, and I would say that the Kovalev feels more forgiving for stickhandling and heel shooting. I prefer the Kovalev, but the P28 is very playable for me as well.
