Yes, the steel is excellent, although I haven't got the veliocity in goalie, just the regulars. The Step goalie steel is like 1/2" taller than the standard RBK's. Very pricey tripple of the RBK's. And Skate Dr, you have to contact a STEP distributor, not the main company. For you I would go thru NASH. I called the company and the guy gave me the number to Midwest Skate (248-477-4250). They're only $30 more than the RBK ones so I'm going to order them. :) And also, my 9k goalie skates are a size 9. What size steel do i need?
