You should post a pic of em :) Must of custom ordered? or did you just change the stock holders to LS?

I think he's asking if they were custom because of the holder.

You wear wide skates right?

705's are for wide and thick feet (high instep). I'm not sure but I think they're the best of the 700 series for flat footed people too.

709/g9 or g35 in a wide.

didn't the G series had durability issue or manufacture problem??

ive skated in my new 735s with cobras for about 12 hours now, and they are great. the transition from t-blades back to cobras was a bit weird but that was exaggerated by the fact i hadnt skated all summer. after the first hour they felt absolutely great. only problem i had was that i had 2 practices a day all week for camp, and putting on the wet skates gave me blisters when i had to walk from one rink to the other. skates have been great to me.

i found that the 735s are the most comfortable graf skates, and they are a little deeper than the 705s...when i tried on 705s my foot was poping out of the tonge.

Check my review on the G-35s. If you still have questions, PM me.

Those issues have been resolved for the 05 models.

...oh how I wish that were the case: The replacement pair it took me so long to get were the '05s. Unfortunately, they fell apart almost as quickly as the first pair.

that why...i keep away from GRAF i don't trust their durabillity issues and service seem to be really weak(well graf canada...)

same can be said for the vapors and vectors.

I was one of the lucky ones: I had minimal problems with any of the multiple pairs of XXs that I had previous to the Grafs.

ive never had a problem with grafs durability. i skate upwards of four five times a week, and last year i had a pair of used 735s that are still in good shape after 2 owners.

One problem I see with all of this talk is just that it isn't going to be consistent with the number of pairs that Graf/Bauer/CCM/Mission, etc put out each year. Now, what happened to Lkpt sucks but I don't think that it necessarily means that Graf is a gongshow all over. Same with djinferno, that sucks too but it can't be an exact representation of how Graf's CS is all the time..

I just think that 2 bad pairs of skates or 10, per 1000 is not a bad number. That's bound to happen when skates, or anything for that matter, are made in mass numbers.

Just ranting...

I see a lot of new Graf skates come in for sharpening because we have a good reputation and well over half of all new Grafs I see would not meet my personal standards to sell or wear.

I was more or less talking about CobrAA because I know he doesnt work in a store, so he would only know from us telling him that Graf is faulty..

yea i know...i might be wrong too....i don't know really good graf ....that might be the only compagny that i really don't know anything(my only knowledge is by (like you said sherwood) is from you...)
