We have them in store as well. They are nice if you like low-kick sticks.

North America

Lace outside in and the laces will lock.

Retailers in Canada are not supposed to ship to USA.

All that matters is if the puck goes in the net

Finger tight at best with standard laces. Sounds like you might need to bake your skates again to get a better fit.

I like the new TRUE footbeds that come with the Cat Pro and SVH Customs. Also am a major fan of Superfeet and Bauer Speedplate footbeds too. All that matters is finding the footbed that works best for your foot and needs. Overall, the best bang for your buck is the Superfeet Comfort footbeds. A good mix of fit, performance, and comfort for a decent price.

I like the AS-V, but don't care for the AS-V Pro as it's just too stiff for me. I find the retail 100K Pro and the AS-V both provide excellent performance and feel slightly similar on the ice. Now, if we are talking about CCM Custom skates, nothing fits and feels like the 100K Pro custom skates.

Usually, steel sent from them directly takes about 3-5 days. Cant the store you bought them from take steel out of another pair of TRUE skates?

Dealers are actually asked to honor a single satisfaction return for a customer. The most I will allow is two. I had a customer who abused the system starting with FT485, then FT4, then FT4 Pro, then 100K Pro, then 100K Pro customs. It was a nightmare getting CCM to accept the FT4 Pro and 100K Pro returns under the satisfaction guarantee. I assume he didn't have enough money to get the 100K Pro customs so as he saved money he kept upgrading. Each return was made between days 80-89 so it seems very systematic.

In a couple weeks youll know for sure

I am a 7.0 regular in the AS-V Pro and a 7.5 wide in the 100K Pro. You will likely need to go wide. The AS-V pro is built on CCMs new last system which will be used for the upcoming 2023 Jetspeed skates too. Thats why they have a little more volume than the current FT4 Pro and 100K Pro.

The CCM rep I spoke with said they are the new Tacks build but a much softer specification, closer to a standard AS-V build, rather than an AS-V Pro
