Custom Skates / Ice to Inline Conversion

[matix218 11]

I wish they would actually put their high end boots on roller frames for that matter rather then having people have to rely on conversions if they want a high end stiff bauer boot for inline.

XXVR is pretty high end roller boot I thought. I cant wear Bauers No arch and wide foot.

Yeah it is, they JUST recently released the xxvr though and it still is not their highest end boot. I remember back in the day they used to have supreme composite roller hockey skates and RH5000s which were identical to the ice supreme composite and bauer 5000. They just dont put much into their roller line anymore it seems like. Not that I can blame them because I am sure the money maker for them is def ice skates.

thank you

These are conversion, for sure. The boots now have new height, pitch and nervous system. Can't wait to talk to him after he skates in them. He's already a big A7 fan.

If those frames had been dyed black it would look more tied together. The White just jumps off. Of course I guess when using a gold boot things jumping out is nothing strange.

danny... are those shift 1 or 2?

[nickyb13 9]

dont they have to be 2's? though you couldnt remove the holder on the 1's

[Hoffer 0]

You can remove the holders, just not the foot beds. I have a teammate that also has a pair of shift ones converted. I know my teammate just driller holes through the foot bed and put new foot beds on top of the old ones. Or you could use strictly brass rivets and probably get away with putting your foot straight on top of them. However, most frames will not line up right with the shift ones, but a couple will.

Ahh ok thanks for clearing that up

Rick- How'd the sprungs work out for you??

[Rick 0]

Sprungs are just the best. I have tried a bunch of chassis and thought I had found the ultimate set-up with Red Star but when I went to the Sprungs I knew I could never go back. My boys still skate rigid chassis and I like the looks of several of the rigid chassis offerings but I won't go back.

Sick I cant wait to see them. I have a pair of Vector Pro boots I was thinking about putting a Hum'er on and this would be a similar pitch. You have to let me know if they feel really heel pitched so I can decide if i need to use a heel riser.

[Invert 13]

My Revision Golds did not come in yet, so I can't comment on the pitch, but it looks very similar to my Tour Code 1's.

did you test fit any 80 mm wheels on there to see if any dremeling is required?

[Invert 13]

There was a bit of dremelling required, not much though. For some reason these skates have a groove right there, not sure why, but I am not complaining.
