Custom skates

[Custom skates]

Isn't the question if the skates are built to a 3D last of your foot why would you need to bake them?

[Custom skates]

I've always wondered if any of the custom skates were truly build around a 3D printed last of the foot.  My son has custom 2S Pros, he loves them and they fit well and they didn't look to be molded when they came.

Be careful with the EE recommendation.  Unless the EE fits in all aspects don't do it.  My son went with the EE recommendation based on some but not all of the measurements and 6 weeks later we were ordering customs because the heels would not lock.

I've got a big fan of No-Icing's "Quad 8 Defence Junior Skater" profile at my house. It's a logistical challenge to get new blades done but the few other things we tried he was not happy with.

Not sure on the last but I may be able to help if you are between sizes.  My son was laser measured at the experience store, some measurements were D other EE, time was a factor so we purchased EE.  Big mistake on my part, should have gone with the Ds and had them beat out.  Ended up ordering the customs 6 weeks later. If between sizes and have time get customs if you need today get the narrower skate.

The skates are for a bantam.

Am i correct that the Bauer custom is more about configuring the skate?  Are the sizes standard or are they creating a custom last of the foot from the 3D scan?

Thanks.  I'm not entirely sure what the difference is but he's never had skates as low as a 180 so I'm not sure now is the time. 

[Bauer Supreme 2S vs 2S pro skates]

Time for new skates.  Trying to discern the meaningful difference between the 2S and the 2S pro.  Currently in MX3's. Always been in either a 190 or 1S level of skate.  Goes up 1/2 size at a time so he's not in them for very long. 

He doesn't like/use the speed plates so are the blades the meaningful difference?

We also considered the custom program but not sure what that would add?

Can anyone speak to the pitch on the Super Tacks?  Are they forward pithed like a Vapor or more upright like a Nexus or Supreme?  Please forgive the Bauer references.
