Need help!
I recently had new LS2 holders installed here in Colorado. After I picked them up and "thought" I had properly inspected my new LS2 holders at the pro shop. I noticed after my first skate that both sets are bent in the middle in the exactly the same way on both pairs (see pictures).
I was hoping to be able a fix it my self, as I live in rural Colorado a few hours from the pro shop in Denver.
My thoughts were to either (1) remove the steel and let the holders return back to the original form (maybe) or (2) remove the steel and apply my heat gun to them for a few minutes to let them expand back to shape and allow for an easy install of the steel.
Note: the pro shop stated that it was difficult to install the steel on a new pair of holders (as I have experienced myself in the past) and they used a rubber mallet to get them in.
Any advice would be appreciated.
