So none of the pure hockey stores in my area stock the tf7 so I tried on the 9 and they fit great, can anyone confirm if the sizing and general fit would be the same in the 7? I usually don't like buying skates without trying on but if they fit the same then I'll buy the 7 online

If anything they run big. I have a ccm pp10c pro stock shell in a size small that's around the same size as my medium retail shells

Single Favorite Piece of Equipment Ever

Mako II skates for sure, changed the way I skate. -
What's your current curve? I went from a pm9 to the Kane pro curve and had no problem adjusting. If you are a toe curve shooter or like a short blade it will be a tough learning curve, but again it's all personal preference
-
How many times can you get skates re-riveted? I swapped out my cxn holders on my mako skates for a pair of true holders with step steel. I've had to have all rivets replaced once and it seems every other skate I have a few rivets loose here and there. It feels like I get rivets replaced more than I get my skates sharpened. I go to a really reputable skate tech and I'm just concerned it could end up damaging the boot over time. Should I keep the holders, switch to tuuk?

They will still have the Nexus fit available in a supreme boot

I have used it for about 6 games now. I have always used a cage so I don't have any comparison to other fishbowls, but so far I've had zero fogging issues and ventilation is pretty good.

When Did You Get Bored With Acquiring New Hockey Gear?

Searching for old tackla or 9k girdles is fun. Everything else I'm over. -
How about a pm9 with the rocker profile of a sakic curve
-
Big time interest on the gionta. Would buy immediately
-
I only see the supernatural as a shaft option
-
Is the supernatural discontinued?
-
Have you tried the flare blade? Or mako and vh? If you don’t like these products and see them as a gimmick then don’t buy them. If other people like them, who cares.
-
Anymore of a knee bend and I'm gonna look like I'm trying to take a dump on the ice..and still be on my toes too much
-
I moved back to center recently and I feel off balance constantly when battling for position in front of the net. Any push from behind seems to send me falling forward. Maybe I just need an adjustment time
-
Reviving old thread. So Ive grown tired of the extreme aggressive pitch of my mako skates and want something more neutral. Thinking about profiling or maybe adding a shim to the front. Any benefits over the other?
-
They were u+10. Still have them and use them for outdoor or backup skates.
-
I have a narrow heel and before my makos I was in ccm and had to wear stable 26 socks to get a better heel lock. It did the trick but was still no substitute for a proper fitting skate
-
Hey mr data I'm thinking about Getting some bc71 blades, but the last base I had was the savoy and I did not care for the ceramic pingy feel. Are these replacement blades a different construction?
-
Is the Malkin pro curve pretty close to the gionta?
-
Yeah good call
-
So I've been skating in my makos for about 4 months or so and I love almost everything about them. My agility and pivots are much better. But the one thing that bugs me is the radius and the holder. Not sure I love the angle of it. At top speeds and in front of the net I feel like I'm easily pushed off the puck or off balance more. Also it puts me more on top of my toes and makes it a little harder to use my stride from heel push to toe flick. Not a huge deal I just have to be aware of it. Might try and throw my old epro holders on there and see what happens
-
Big fan of drury and mild heel curves. What's the lie on this? Also do have Minneapolis reps?
-
If only they had my size. given how rare holders and runners are becoming for Easton, I might just go ahead and throw some tuuks on them now so that I can get used to them.
-
So ive had my makos for about 4 skates now. First two were just stick and puck, pretty chill 2 on 2 half ice games. My next two were faster leauge games and anytime i got going pretty fast i got a bad skate wobble. Not ankle wobble. Not sure if im still learning my edges in these skates or if i have a misaligned holder. Anyone else have this when switching to makos?
