BAUER VAPOR XXX vs BAUER 8000 SKATE STIFFNESS

[mattopiela 0]

Hello MSH fellas just a quick question. I am debating between these two skates (Bauer Vapor XXX and 8000), I've tried both of them on and they fit great, I will lean towards the less stiffer one, which one would that be ? my guess its the 8000 but I could be wrong.

8000 all the way, based on 7000, which was stiff as hell

Well not really. And plus the skate softens up with use right ?
