Baking my Vapor XIX's

[AlabamaICE 0]

I've had my Vapor XIX's for probably 2 months and skated in them 15-20 times. I did not have them baked after I bought them. Should I do that now? I need some good info. on baking them. If I do bake them what kind of marinade should I use? Kidding!!!

They should be broken in by now.

So having them baked now would be a waste of time and $$?

I second that.

As long as you don't have a pressure point or an area that is giving you problems, I would just leave them alone.

off topic but how do those XIX feels and how much "heavier" are they then the XX

you shouldve baked them right away when you got them not a month afterwards when you already have worn them about 20 times

i dont think there is a certain time frame when have to bake your skates, with this being said if you can wear a skate out of the box with out baking, more power to you

I've had my Flexlites since last October and I've baked them last week. Only reason why I baked them because I was having too much pressure on my midfoot area of the skate.

Bake them if like. I baked mine at home cos there wasn't a hockey shop open (only opens Mon, Fri, Sat) so it saved me some cash.

I really like the XIX's. I picked them up on Ebay for $150.00. They sell online for $250.00 so I think I did good $$ wise. They are supposed to be exactly like the XX's except for one cosmetic difference (I'm not sure what thay was). They are much lighter than what I was skating in. I say if you don't wont to shell out $350.00 for the XX's then the XIX's would be a good choice.

The XIX's are the same as the XV's with a few cosmetic differences and a LS2 holder
