    You have to much money. :blink:

    Got to make the best of it before I have to start buying my own skates,which these are the last pair I will get from my parents.I did buy my Synergys and Vapor XXs though. ;)

    Where did you get them from?


  2. Careful with the Pro Toe, sometimes non "Protect toe" brangs come off a little rubbery. I got a knock-off protect toe (possibly the one in the auction) for the bottom of an OPS I wanted to use for roller hockey and when I applied it, it came off all rubbery.

    Ok so i best stick with finding the ProTecToe


  3. that is one beautiful stick

    how is the protectoe? Does it feel weird? How many bottles of it did you have to use anyway?

    It feels glossy ,yet has some grip. You can get about 15 sticks out of one can.I barely used 1/4 of a can doing a shaft and two OPS

    I want to do that to my XN10's. That looks sweet. Where can you pick up that ProtectToe or whatever? Is it expensive? And it doesnt come off like paint does?


  4. Bauer Vapor XXX

    Size: 11 D

    Height: 6'1

    Weight: 169

    Used: 3 Months, 3-4 times a week

    Introduction

    Purchased these skates back in July not knowing what really to expect after coming from CCM Skates with t'blades. Have used Vapor 8's, 4's and Supreme 5000's previously and loved them. My last few skates i had i used t'blades, So i figured i'd put them on my XXX's when i found them for such a good price. But i didnt and im in love with them!

    Fit

    When i first put these on to get them baked i loved the fit of them, very comfortable, but im glad i put them on in a hockey camp before games because man did my feet ever hurt after the first few ice times. Just certain pressure points on my feet, you could see big red marks. But overall after wearing them for 3 months i find comfortable. 8/10

    Blade/Holder

    Well coming from 2 seasons of t'blade i wasnt quite sure of what to expect with the lightspeeds. I heard nothing but good things about the lightspeeds from what people told me and reviews i've read. Were they right! I have so much more power, and the edge stays much longer! By far the best chassis/blade set i've used. 9/10

    Weight

    Tell me when you find a skate lighter than this please. 10/10

    Protection

    Well after feeling how light these skates were i was kind of iffy about the protection they offer as i play defence and block many shots. I've taken numerous slap shots of the sides of the foot and even the laces. I havent felt a thing, couldnt ask for better protection. 10/10

    Durability

    Well after 3 months of Midget AAA hockey, these skates are holding together pretty damn well. Obviously the holders are starting to show obvious signs of wear as i take numerous shots off them and battling along the boards. Other than that just the toe has a fray, but nothing major. 9/10

    Conclusion

    No questions asked, they are by far the best skate i've ever worn. I dont see myself skating in anything but bauer for awhile anyway!

    Overall: 9.5/10


  5. once we get the tape of last night game ill post me knocking some guy out, appently i hit him and he just stood there for a second then hes eyes rolled back a he dropped thats what the guy on my team told me anyways. it was even a clean hit so i was syked and he came back after a few shifts so he was ok.

    Good luck getting a hold of it then using your TECH KNOWLEDGE to get it up on the CPU.

    Anyways i will have a pic of me playing in HS as soon as i get it back from the framing place, aswell as a pic of me from Midget AAA
