Has anyone used the CCM XS Skate Tongue Extra? I have the FT4 Pro's don't need to reduce the volume. Would these tongues just make the boot fit snugger than it already does?

Thanks, West Side skate shop looks great will try and get over there.

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated I was just looking using Google maps. Looks like the Penalty Box Hockey Shop in Las Vegas is the best bet.

Thanks for the advice, not sure if I can manage that far from where we are staying potty the MonkeySports in Northridge is permanently closed ;( that would have been perfect.

Hi, Looking for some advice We are taking a 4 city trip around American the first 2 weeks in May. Does anyone know of any good ice and inline hockey stores around these areas? Found some shops selling ice gear, but can't seem to see any selling inline gear. NY staying in Midtown East, Vegas staying on Las Vegas Blvd, LA Staying on Vineland Avenue and San Francisco staying on Nob Hill. Thanks

at what temperature 170?

I got a great deal on the Bauer Re-Akt 200 Helmet online, fits great. I know it is optional, but curious if i can bake the fit plate at home? the helmet dosen't come with much instructions on the baking process just the amount of time to put it in a Bauer oven. Has anyone done this? can it be done at home? if so how? Thanks

i heard somewhere that the rocker sticks don't if this is because of moisture or something.But i asked the question on there Facebook and they got back saying that there is no issue that they know off.

i looked at backing one but they are like half the price of skates (to get them to the UK) i just wait for them to come to the UK store will give me time to read the review.Plus i don't think that you can put Step Steel or anything in them which i just got :/

I haven't had any issues with that ( but then never have before) only way I can describe the tongue its a bit worn from use but that's about it no problems there.

I've been wearing mine since about a month or two after release (3-4 hours a weekend) previously always worn the Ribcor line.After getting them baked they felt really good could feel how well they were shaping to my foot.No hot spots after first skate just a bit stiff so difficult to get them tight enough. Only took about a month (could be less cant remember) to fully break in had no discomfort through all of this time, rubbing or anything. The boot is a bit lower cut than the Ribcor's so no need to skip the top eyelet. Fits my foot incredibly well and honestly find it more difficult to get my foot into the boot, but once its in feels great hardly any negative space. The boot is really light and stiff and haven't had any issues with durability ( the carbon fibre near the toe cap looks like its cracked but I have been told this is just part of the moulding process). cant remember the name of the new eyelet thingy but its defiantly noticeable and hugs your foot a lot more. have been hit with pucks on the back, side and toecap if there was any pain it went away very quickly. Only the one on the toecap left me with a small bruise on my big toe. The only issue I had was with the superfeet carbon insoles sliding forward in the boot when trying to put my foot in no idea why but changing to the CCM custom support insoles fixed the problem. These have been the best pair of skates I have had buy far, just wish I could have gotten them sooner.

How did you find skipping the top eyelet? I used to on my old skates but the supertacks don't come up as high.

I used to skip there to eyelet on my old skates, but the supertacks don't seem to come up as far feel like skipping the top eyelet would be to low. Does anyone else find this?

I tried watching it ended up getting bored about halfway through the first episode and turned it off :|

I'm away to pick up my Supertacks next weekend and have a pair of superfeet carbon pro hockey I want to use. Do I bake the skate with the regular footbed then swap it out for the superfeet one they have cooled?
