boney ankles

[slinky 0]

My son has been wearing the vapor IV's for about six months with no problems at all. All of the sudden one of his ankles keeps getting bruised from the way his foot sits in the boot. I had my skate guy try to punch it but it didn't work because it was so close to the eyelets. It seems the heel isn't deep enough and the foot is to far forward. He is a size 3.1/2,what would be a good skate or solution. Thanks

Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about that. You have to find him a deeper-fitting boot.

Make him play competitive lawn bowling instead?

:P

He is interested in a new skate though...

The skates are starting to break down any ways.

I would imagine CCM Vectors, or Graf boots, not sure on what model grafs, x05 series maybe.

The Graf 609 or 709, the 707 is also a deep boot.

Well, I was thinking deeper, but not too wide. Remember, he's in Vapors, and I'm assuming 3.5D. This would make for a narrow boot.

Oops did not read well enough, well the Graf 705 might be better.
