dddatsyuk--48 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 I am in need of new skates and I have read the reviews on a lot of different skates. (too many skates actually) Out of all the different skates, I have narrowed my choices down to four skates. The Easton Z-air comp SE, Vapor XX, Supreme 8090, and the CCM Vector. Now this is where I need help. I have no idea which skates to buy so could you all help me on my choosing?Additional Info: The skates that I am using now are the Vapor Select. I think they are the 02 or 01 model but i have no idea. Also I have flat feet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I am willing to spend a fair amount of mula because my feet are not going to grow anymore and i dont usually get new skates every year. I usually get some good skates and wear them for a life time, until they are beaten, tattered, and worn :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CBJ 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 From one flat footed person to another my advice to you would be to try them all on and buy the pair that feels best....Personally, I've tried them all on and i liked the Vector Pros the best. The Easton Z-air comp 04 didn't fit my foot nearly as well as last years Z-air '03( which are my current skates ). The Vapor XX's just don't hit my feet right. The 8090's felt basically just as good as the vector Pro's however when i flexed the 8090's forward the middle of the boot just opened up....leading me to believe that either i need to go on a diet ;) or these skates just aren't going to be as durable as we've come to expect from the supreme line.

It sounds like with some of the really light weight skates, they are inversely correlated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
