Slapsht25 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2006 isn't the Vector pro a top line skate where the 502 is an entry intermediate level skate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted April 13, 2006 isn't the Vector pro a top line skate where the 502 is an entry intermediate level skate? The 502 is more of a mid-level skate, I just think it's overpriced considering the products available from other manufacturers at the same price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gongshow11 1 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 you got them cuz they were white. Vector pros are great skates, the fact that you got an entry level skate is bad. Plus you got tblades which are as useful as tits on a boy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buffalo hockey 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 so should i just tell them i dont want them and use it towards something else..they guys at the shop said there were a good skate....also i heard good things about t blades Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fredrik 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 That's up to you to decide. Do a little research on different skate brands/models before you walke in to the store. Search the internet, talk to your teammates etc. That would probably help your decision. When buying skates, there's a lot of factors to consider. Good luck!

buffalo hockey 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 i did talk to ppl they said it was a great skate for the price and stuf but on hear ppl are sound like they suck and that i shouldnt of even gotten them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheesehead 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 its probably not that they are bad skates, its what you came from. you had vector pros before, a top of the line skate. the Grafs you got are entry level, and they probably wont be nearly as good as your vector pros.

Fredrik 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 Why not try the T-Blade Vectors if you are currently using Vector Pro:s? The same boot as you are comfortable with, yet you get to try the T-Blades. These are on sale right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#28 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2006 The 502s are decent skates mid-range skates. Since they are mid-range skates they will not be nearly as stiff as your vector pros. Switching back and forth from T'blades to regular holders/steel may feel kind of strange if you do decide to keep these and use them for backups or practice skates.
