Heat moulding Synergy skates

[Nacho 0]

I just bought a pair or Synergy 900 skates and the only pair of 11.5's in the city were a D width. I tried them on at the LHS and they felt very snug becasue I probably could go with an E width. I've been walking around with them and was wondering if having the skates baked will make much of a difference? Will the skate's width feel wider after having them moulded?

Skates always feel better after being molded IMO. I like the feel of getting them molded a lot more than not having them molded.

maybe it only in your head...i know Nike is game-ready fit...but the owner bake my skate..so i'dont know if it was a good thing or not...IMO i don't feel a lot of difference but i did when i bake my 1152

BY THE WAY...SYNERGY are suppose to NOT be baked,because of the composite

Synergy 1300c is the composite skate. I think the lesser models are bakable.

Correct

My vector's really relaxed after 2 heatings. Tight is one thing, pain is another. Give it a shot or 2.

they can't be baked, composite doesn't expand, it bubbles and cracks. :D

The Synergy 900 skates are composite?

[Cavs019 710]

doh, I though we were talking about 1300c's. By all means bake the 900.

If the skates cause pain when you try them on, you shouldn't buy them. Baking should only be used for a hot spot or an area that is a little tight. If you have pain then you should try a skate that fits your foot better, like an S400. ;)

yeah there is no pain for me. I think i'll go with them

Actually, he was in the shop and tried on a pair of S400s over the weekend. I'm pretty sure he liked the fit of them. ;)

You can always spot-heat them with a heat gun, but yeah, if it is pain, baking will not help.

So how did end up with the Synergys ?

Whats the difference between hot spots and pain? I was never really sure.

I'll admit the S400's were the most comfortable skates out of the box that I've ever had on my feet. Like slippers. Now I have to figure out a way to prostitute myself to get a pair.

A hotspot will leave a red mark on your foot - but won't cause pain. Just pressure.

Yeah I had a hotspot on the inside of my right foot. I went and got them baked today and they seem to feel a lot better. I finally get to skate in them tomorrow! :D
