Any update on that in the meantime?

[CCM Super Tacks X Helmet]

Any weight data / comparison information available yet?

[Hello AS3 Pro's bye Vapes]

How was transforming from AS1 to AS3 ?

[CCM AS3 Pro Skate Initial Thoughts]

Any other experiences ?

[CCM Super Tacks X Helmet]

The lightweight design is definitely great of the E700 but ventilation is really bad. And I see a good potential that this new structure / approach in helmet design should also be able to provide lightweight specs. Hopefully we get them soon. 

[Hello AS3 Pro's bye Vapes]

The thing is - more comfortable foam in the toe box or reduces the width of the forefoot space. This has poked me in the AS1 (total custom version). So hope the toe box is comfy and wide enough. 

[Hello AS3 Pro's bye Vapes]

Had some troubles with too much pressure at navicular bone with the AS1 (and I know quite a few more players) - hope they addressed that with the new model. 

[CCM Super Tacks X Helmet]

How do they compare in weight to E700?

[Are the newer Ribcore skates the highest volume CCM skate?]

How does volume compare with new AS3 Pro in EE ?

[Skate volume vs toe flick restrictions]

It’s not about boot stiffness itself rather than the angle that gets up to high when there is too little volume. So restricting the movement. 

[Skate volume vs toe flick restrictions]

This topic is really underrated. I made the discovery that when there is not enough volume in the skate (not passing pencil test or seeing a „bulge“ when the skates are tied up) this considerably restricts the mobility of the foot - especially when it comes to the direction needed for the toe flick. 
Has anyone also experienced that?

Step is really great

The comfort foam was optional wasn't it? And it does say when added it'll reduce the width of the boot slightly. 

Yes I learned that it was an option by reading the PDF which was posted here. Seems the rep that made my Total Custom order selected that without asking me. 

[Ccm custom skates]

yes I also baked them - but will try to remove that „comfort foam“ in the forefoot as it takes away too much width. 
Also the heel lock is not as good as in the retail version for me. 
And my pressure point on the navicular bone still is a problem. 

[Ccm custom skates]

I still got pressure points of the custom AS1 😞

There is also a foam on the toe box outer area (where the little / fifth toe is) maybe I should try removing that?

Anyone else experiencing this?

I have the same issue on my right foot... Which is the primary reason I'm going to go with full custom skates for my next pair. Very disappointing to hear this was not addressed, sounds like I might have no choice but to go with True instead of CCM. 

It got better over time, so no more pain - but really would love someone from CCM could provide feedback on this known topic.

Can you share a pic of this, please? The customs I have seen usually look very close to retail. 

Unfortunately making a foto is difficult. Imagine a quite flat bottom in retail with quite little shape/arch support vs really 3D custom feet bed/arch support 

[CCM AS1 skate pain]

The insole / arch support has a tremendous effect on foot pain. 

Try to loosen the tension in your foot by using a tennis ball a few hours before you skate (stretching of plantar fascia)

[Customer ordering some CCM custom skates, questions on options I have never ordered?]

Through the base of the Total Custom AS1 is completely different from the retail version. It’a completely molded to match my arch - whereas the retail skate has nearly a complete flat base.

How hard are you yanking on the laces?

FWIW- I barely have to pull on the laces in my custom Bauer APX2s because they fit so well. 

Oh the CCM Total Custom fit just fine - the thing is just if you use the Orthomove insoles which have an additional foot arch this makes it so painful. 
As the bottom of the skates (so it's really a 360 degree total customization) are also custom molded on the CCM Total Custom the plain insoles should be used to get the best fit as it was 3D scanned.
I also had the Bauer 1X with the Speedplate - but that is just the "old approach", having a plain botton of the skate and adjusting the insole to match the better fit.

[Customer ordering some CCM custom skates, questions on options I have never ordered?]

Yes - also just the yellow Orthomove without any attachments, and still this was very painful. Another player who also did a Total Custom AS1 just had the exact problem!

He told me he tried without any attachments and when wearing one of them the pain was unbearable. 

But there is no single word of CCM on what insoles are intended for Total Custom Skates. 

[Customer ordering some CCM custom skates, questions on options I have never ordered?]

Thank you!  Just one single question: have a problem at the left navicular bone (inside of the foot) though even it was photographed along with the 3D scan it seems it wasn’t adressed. Any chance to solve this?

[Customer ordering some CCM custom skates, questions on options I have never ordered?]

Got my Total Custom AS1 Skates - and had the worst pain in Skates I ever experienced. When investigating further I realized that I obviously shouldn’t use any of the Orthomove insoles - rather than using just the plain, standard insole as the bottom of the skate already has some „molding“. 

Is this right? Are they intended to use with the plain, default (black) insole? It‘s somehow misleading as the orthomove insoles also were placed near the skates when delivered. 

[Custom CCM skates vs. Custom True Skates]

Is it possible to have the total custom AS1 with the lace lock feature?

[CCM SB XS Blade Holder - Retail Release?]

@JR Boucicaut That would be great if you could find out!
