It took me 2 skates to stop falling on my face going from a stock to a Quad 1 on backwards transitions. I'd say stick with it and keep seeing if you can adjust to it first.

Did you stay on quad? What hollow do you use? I had 5/8 but I think I’m going to try 3/4.

Thanks for all the responses.

How many times have you skated in them? Profiles generally don't work instantly and you have to get used to them before it becomes immediately comfortable.

You also went with a neutral holder (CCM) to a more aggressive holder in Bauer unless you had the profile made to adjust with that.

I’ve skated in them for 2 hours now (2- 1hr sessions) 

I’m also wondering if I should give them more time it just seems weird how hard it is to do cross overs but maybe that’s just part of the adjustment period as well. I like the aggressive feel of the holders and how forward my toe feels but it just seems like the heel is very flat

Hey I’m just looking for advice on the quad zero profile.

I was using ccm rbz size 8 skates with 272 runners for the last 9 years and I looked and realized that they have a banana blade with a lot of heel shaved off. I needed new skates so got supreme m5 pro skates (size 8.5 272 runners) 

I decided to get them profiled to a quad zero with a 5/8 hollow and I find that I get good glide and straight line speed and even turning is nice with them but when I start to cross over I feel very slow and I don’t get going like I normally would. 

I’m a good skater and I’m just looking for suggestions on what I should do. Wondering if maybe a 10’ profile would be able to closer match the banana blade that was on my old skate which had a lot of heel taken out. Thanks.
