You can bake them 2-3 times. I wouldn't recommend any more.

I have converted 5 pairs of ice skates with no issues. The aggressive boot pitch is not optimal for ice, but it only took a couple of skates to get use to it.

Vet88,
You can definitely reheat fit the skates and have someone help with the heal area. I wouldn't recommend standing on them, as this may mess them up. I have used a C-Clamp before to help, but you will need to be careful. You can also heat them up bit more than 9 minutes, but be careful when pulling on the eyelets.

That is a surprise, since the last did not change in the heel area. The width was only changed on the forefoot of the skate.
-
No, you won't have any more heel lift verse the CA5.

Hi Justin,
I have been skating in a pair of old Proto V's Size 8 forever. They fit me like butter. What size would you recommend in Alkali to match old mission sizing?
Size 8 for sure.
-
Definitely go with the Team. The difference in the chassis and boot is night and day verse the CA5 skates. I have a narrow foot and with a heat fit, the skates will wrap nicely around your foot.

I am personally a 10 shoe and wear a 8.5 skate. Our skates usually fit 1.5 size down from your shoe size (I have noticed people with shoe size 11 and above only go down 1 size).
Changing to 76mm wheel should not be an issue.
-
The RPD+ Team pants have zippers.

I have found that heels do settle in after time. I have notice at least 1-3mm change. I am a person who ties their skates very tight, since I like my foot not to move at all (I do skip the top eyelet).

The RPD Max is a better chassis than the CA9. Why would you switching from your Max skate to an MX3?

It is all personal preference. I have always used X-Soft Millennium, because I like maximum grip.

All the new gear is available at most Alkali Dealers.

You should have no problem with the fit of our boot z1ggy. Your foot sounds similar to mine.
-
It is 175, but should only be done in a skate oven or convection oven.

I'm looking to possibly buy some new inline skates, currently using some old Mission Heliums and they feel like boat anchors on my feet. I wear a 9 in my street shoe, my ice hockey skate are Graf Ultra G5's, size 7.5. My foot is on the border of D and E, I got "regular" width Graf's and had them punched accordingly, this worked out well. This brand has caught my eye, especially the customer service interactions I see here.
What model would you recommend for someone like myself, I'm playing twice a week, 40+ league. Not looking to break the bank, prefer to stay around the $299 range tops.
Thanks.
You would most likely be a 7.5 in our skate. For $299 you can pick up an older Shift skate or the new RPD Team+ skate. Both are good skates and you can't go wrong with either.

New site is being completed shortly. We had to start over, when the people we hired to do our website failed. Luckily we have Steve, and he is knocking out a great new site.

The comp is a bit better quality than the crossover. The Lite blade is very similar to the Crossover blade.

Our Team stick was made by True Temper and is a great stick. I highly recommend it.
