  1. Hockey Monkey has them in stock. You should be able to pick them up there. J
  2. Sure, the Team Duffle bag is a single compartment bag that is made with a heavy gauge coated nylon. The material on the bag was used on the PUMA World Cup Sailing bags. It is a much higher grade Tarpaulin fabric than what is normally found in hockey. Also, our bags are not made a hockey bag supplier, but actually at a golf bag supplier. The golf bag supplier uses much better thread, sewing methods, etc verse a traditional hockey bag supplier. I hope this helps. Justin
  3. Great to hear EBondo. Let me know if you have any additional questions.
  4. The CA5s are a great skate that has plenty of stiffness, a strong chassis, and good wheels/bearings. The CA5 is not available in 1/2 sizes. You guys won't be disappointed if you chose the CA5 over our competition.
  5. Here you go: Take wheels off (this way the skates can stand straight up. Remove footbed Put the oven rack on the bottom Set the temp to 150 (lower than normal, but better to be safe than sorry) Remove footbeds Keep Light on to monitor the heating Place in oven for 5 minutes to start Constantly monitor and check them to make sure there is no issue Check after 5 minutes to see if the boot is warm and has soften up a bit If not, put back in oven for another 3-5 minutes. See Video for the rest:
  6. Willy, A couple of things that should help clear up: 1. We state that the skate is wider in the forefoot, because that is what the last is. We built a wider toecap on our skates to allow for more comfort out of the box. 2. The outsole on a C and EE skate is the same. At Mission we used the same outsole for all skate widths. Take a look at the attached picture of my skate (The CA9) and another player with a wider foot skate (CA7). You will notice a huge difference in the eyelet facing wrap. My skates have an eyelet facing that completely wrap over the toe box and foot. This offers a more secure fit for my narrow foot. I hope this info helps.
  7. Unless you have a convection oven, I do not recommend heating them at home. Jazz, great to hear. Hope you enjoy them.
  8. Definitely. As I have mentioned before, the heat fit mold ability of our skates is amazing. Since our skates have the ability to mold so much (range from a C to a EE width range of adjustment), we only needed to do one width skate. There are numerous reviews out there, and the have been great! I think you will be happy with the fit, features, performance, and durability. Hope this helps. Justin
  9. Nicoo, I would recommend a 7.5 skate based on your Commander sizing. In general, we recommend 1 to 1 1/2 below your shoe size.
  10. 272 blade holder on a size 8.5 Mission Skate. You fit a 280, but it is a bit long (i do this on my skates, since I like a longer blade).
  11. The tolerances in the bearings are higher on the Swiss verse the Swiss Lite. In all honesty the differences are minimal, and most players will not notice a difference.
  12. Both of our gloves are nylon. Originally the CA9 glove was going to be synthetic leather, but we decided to switch to Nylon.
  13. Guys, gloves are delayed as we had an issue with two different factories. I hope to have them by mid February, but nothing is finalized right now.
  14. We believe the larger wheels are the junior skates effects their maneuverability and speed. The extra weight of the larger wheels also hurts them. As for the sticks, are patterns are exact copies of the following curves from Easton: A17 - Iginla A33 - Hall A47 - Parise A77 - Cammalleri
  15. Jay Russell handles the team side of the business. I will make sure he contacts you once he gets back from AAU Winternationals.
  16. In Michigan, you can go to Total Roller Hockey in Novi. More dealers will be getting product shortly. If your local dealer isn't carrying us yet, tell them they need to. :) Also, our website is up with a ton of good product videos: www.alkalihockey.com
  17. Yes, the skates can change when heat fitted. I am surprise you are having heal lift, as I have a very narrow heel and have no lift. I just walked out to the warehouse and looked again: Y11 is a 3 wheel 59mm and Y12 is a 4 wheel 59. Sorry for the confusion. Not sure whose mailbox you left a message, but you can e-mail me at justin@alkalihockey.com with your questions.
  18. Inlinepro: I cannot comment on switching out the chassis, but I would recommend trying the skates with the stock chassis for at least 5-6 games. Once you give it some time, I think you will be happy with the results. ahbroody: Y11 is a 3 wheel 59mm and Y12 is a 4 wheel 59. Our skate are fairly deep, so I think he will fit in our skates.
  19. Yeah. There are some vendors done in the SE. 5Hole in Carolina is carrying it, and you can contact our rep: Craig Fortner <craigfort@aol.com> and he can also help.
  20. You can wear them in, but I highly recommend baking them. The material we used is specially designed to take the shape of your foot with heat. However, you can definitely break them in by just wearing them. As for the ABS stick, or CA3 stick has a nice and rigid ABS blade. Give them a try, and I think you will be pleased.
  21. Gloves are delayed until February. Had an issue with our vendor and had to move them to a new factory. Sucks, but had to be done.
