Conversion options

[#28tz 0]

I am looking to convert some ice boots and i have a few skates that im looking at, the 2006 Nike bauer supreme 50 and the mission S500. Does anyone have any views on which i should get or any others i may like to consider as ive never used an ice boot before.

Bauer

Mission

Thanks

What is your prefernce in skates, The missions offer a lot of forward flex for increased manuverability. And the Bauers are usually a stiffer skate. I am a little biased towards mission so I would say go with the S500 but it really depends on the type of skater you are. Another reason I would go with the missions is the S500 were top of te linse skates and the 50's are mid line skates. Also if you have a LHS with those skates in stock go try them on and se what fits your feet the best.

If you're partial to those One-50s and you're willing to wait, take some time and wait for someone else, a "guinea pig" per say, to use the skates.

If you're okay in Missions, go ahead, the S-500s are great.

Well i cant try them on because i dont have an LHS unfortunately :(

What skates were you wearing before that fit you best?

Well all the skates ive had have fitten me well, my Pf8s mission 7500 and D2cs.

I'd go with the S-500, purely because it's top of the line.

What about easton synergy 900 or 1200 ive seen quite a few people with them or maybe some mission fuels?

If im size 12(USA) in my mission 7500 rollers would i be the same in the S500?

Mission Roller is up half a size from Mission Ice.

10.5 Shoe = 10.5 Roller = 10 Ice

However, the synergy's wouldn't be a bad idea. I remember hearing something aout the 1300 having very breakable toecaps, though.

Anyone know what sizing i would be in easton if im 12 in mission rollers?

Also does the same rule apply with the mission fuels being one size down from the roller missions?

I believe you would be an 11 Easton, and a 11.5 Mission in Fuels.
