Move the tongue lower so it reduces toe box volume and will keep your toes flat while in the boot. This also prevents toes from lifting and curling /pulling away from the end of the toebox. When I moved my tongue down a bit it changed the fit from my toes feathering against the toebox to being pressed up right against it so I had to remove the foam liner in the toe box to create more room since I like my tongue lower.
-
Honestly if you've done the saran wrap technique like this, and it still feels like too much volume, you need a. Remake
-
Lower the tongue it'll keep your toes down and closer to the end of the toe cap. When they were baked/rebaked did they do the saran wrap technique? If not, that's what you need to do.

What's the m03? Or is that just the max height w03
-
Standard is 60 or at least used to be. But honestly all companies are different now, ccm is much longer than Bauer. And yes they are also measured differently.
-
I've used both the SP 1.0 and 2.0 but only on my custom trues and just got the same size as I would wear on a retail Bauer, so 7, for me
-
It's esthetics only. The top edge of the boot is still soft. Can we get over this now.
-
If u want them to fit like Bauer ccm. Why not get Bauer or ccm.
-
I think the opposite. Ccms she'll is very thin. They've increased padding over the years but their she'll is very thin. Bauer's curv seems much more structurally durable. I've seen a lot of Bauer skates that have taken a beating esthetically but not structurally
-
I wouldn't expect any skate to last more than a year/season if I was on the ice 3+ days a week. If they do great. But the reality is at that level, it's not reasonable.
-
I know you were a fan of speed plates like I am. How do these compare. I hated the stock true insoles of the last. Too squishy for me. But these look interesting
-
The pics I see for the cat pro doesn't look like anything special or different in terms of the cuff area
-
True never had the comfort edge for their full customs. And you don't need it. The top edge of their customs are soft and have no hard plastic in them so they are essentially comfort edges without the stupid print of comfort edge on them. Up until the most recent skate releases from ccm and Bauer, the comfort edge did very little anyways. Look at the vapor and as1s comfort edge. They were pathetic.
-
I stopped using true after the ax9 the feel was just off for me. The a6.0 ht was great but like all true sticks durability was hit or miss. I've stuck to ccm for now. So far my ft3 pro and trigger 4 pros haven't let me down. No chips on the blades or anything.
-
So I completely stopped using this. I couldn't get used to the tackiness while stick handling. Gonna remove it from my stick and still have an unused set i dont know what to do with.
-
I don't see anything wrong with the holders on the as-v pro you returned. You can't look at them compare them the way you do to see if they are centred. If it's centered between tow cap and at the heel you're good. Not at the forefoot area you highlighted. Secondly are your as3s step steel or ccm steel. I ask bc step has never fit into tuuk or ccm holders as easily as stock steel made by respective companies. Step always required a bit more effort.
-
Drop an eyelet. Or flex forward then tie the top lace which creates some slack on the top lace.
-
First off. Double check to see if the eyelets have been stretched. Secondly, skate on them first and see how they feel. If there are issues like they are too tight etc, then maybe rebake. Mind you, when you lace them up to skate don't tie them as tight as you would with Bauer's or ccm. Just enough so there is not lace slack. Good luck.

Bauer’s Factory Profile
Sniper9 replied to Zaphod042's topic in Technical Info and General Questions
I'd still profile them. Their stock quad 0 feels different than the quad 0 I get at my pro shops. Different in a bad way. -
Who not return the as3 pro under the 90 day guarantee
-
I tried my buddy's Bauer nexus league team stick, felt good. For the 159 cdn price point I would definitely get it. The league version is only available at some places though not all.
-
So the svh replaces the tf customs. Aka updated original true customs. And the cat is the new like but isn't offered in a fully custom skate? Kind of confusing. Weird how they wouldn't make a fully custom version of the cat.
-
I used to wear 14 across the board for retails. Now I fit 13" for all brands except ccm I'm still a 14 as they have still maintained some consistency. Realistically I was more of a 13.5" so any deviation smaller or bigger I really noticed.
-
I have to drop the top with true bc of the wrap. But if I try to drop the top with Bauer or ccm it feels way too low to I use all the eyelets on the latter two brands, just not as tight.
-
The butt end sleeves saves palms which I appreciate but 20-30 bucks for them is insane for what it is. If I were to get a butt end sleeve I'd get tacki Mac since they are cheap. But I like lizard skins. They just don't last as long but I'll get them on sale and generally two will last the life of the stick. With the texture on the blades these days, how is that grip wise? I always wondered if the entire blade even needs to be taped since it seems pretty grippy as is.
