At their website i choose Europe in region and under contact it says info@true-hockey.com. Luckily they just responded to my e-mails this morning, i'm going to see what comes of that. Thanks for tip with the Nash Sniper tongues, might be something worth looking into if True doesn't come thru.

Sadly the hockey culture isn't big in Iceland (even tho we were the big bad guys in D2: The Mighty Ducks (1994) lol. we've got 3 top-tier teams (was 4) and 4-5 beer-league teams with try-hards and old-stars 🙂 Back to the topic, I thought of removing the tongues of the Bauer MX3's and putting it in the True's but it seemed a little drastic, figured i'd contact IW/True first and see if they'd be willing to help me out with True tongues. Still, if nothing comes out of that, i might try to stich/glue white felt on the back of the True tongue and if that doesn't work then i'll probably just swap tongues. Hey Tomatoe 🙂 I was gong to call today but True answered my e-mails this morning, said there was issue with their e-mail server or something, we've started the dialogue, hopefully they can set something in motion to ship me new tongues.

Yes, i pre-ordered through IW hockey. They told me that they are not carrying any tongues or other parts for the skates now or in the future and told me to contact True directly. Yeah, that could be the issue, i'd like to replace the tongue.. for free or for a fee but i can't seem to find any place willing to sell it to me. I live in Iceland and there is no local hockey shop here 😕 only online stores in EU or NA.

Thank you for the reply. Yeah, it's near the top, somewhere in the 2nd to 3th eyelid from the top. I'm only tightening the skates as tight as i need, just so there's no heel movement, nothing to serious. Maybe i'll just buy some white felt and either sew or glue it inside the tongue for more padding, maybe that'll be worse ? Ugh, can't believe i'm going through this with brand new pair of skates 😕

Bought the TF9's, fit was so-so out of the box... After baking at home (and shrink wrapping) the heel is 100% locked in and comfy, but a little room in the forefoot, thinking about baking again and shrink wrapping the forefoot section. However, the lace bite i'm getting is just ridiculous... I've tried lacing the skates inwards out, outwards in, different lace bite lacing methods... I'm not failing the "pencil test"... I've tried to contact true support (e-mail) to try to see if they will ship me a different tongue or something... 9 days and 2 emails later, no answer... 😞 I'll be skating in my MX3's tonight ... sadly.

Really excited for the TF9's, hoping they're not to wide cause i have narrow feet, yet i only fit Supreme of the Bauer line. Current skate: Supreme MX3 - Size 10.5 (can feel the toe cap whilst standing straight, not when skating). Shoe Size 12 (Converse) Right & Left foot (identical) Width: 102-4mm Length: 300mm Think they'll fit snug after baking ?
