Yesterday, while driving to get my skates sharpened, I stopped and tried on some TF7s, then bought them because yolo. My wife bought new high heels the other day, so we are even Im excited and nervous. They feel ok walking around the house. First game tonight. I didn’t get them profiled yet, because I want to see what the forward lean is like. Because of the one piece design, toe box is absolutely brutal looking, like a ski boot. Maybe in 10 years all skates will look like this, and the separate toe cap will look old and dated. For sizing comparison, I’ve been wearing an 8.5 in Bauers, and went with an 8.0 in these. I didn’t even try on the 8.5, since the 8s felt the way I expected a skate to fit.

If you are in Canada, you can mail in to LaSalle Skate shop Any custom profile you can think of can be custom machined and runners profiled for you. Just send a FB message.

I mail to a place in Pittsburgh called Binnie’s. I really like the work he does. https://www.binnieshockey.com People on this forum have had good things to say about both PBH’s shop and KK Skate.

Humans are the biggest variable and even the best equipment manager or pro shop individual has bad days. I would love to think I never make mistakes, but that would not be factual.

Bauer ditched the flex cap on the bottom of the current Vapor line but added it to the new Supreme shins. Product line identity crisis....

I have all the same spec on different manufacturers stick. I like to rotate every two shifts or so. That is just me. Just so I can use them!🤘
