BushLeagueDangler08 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2006 Alright, Ive been skating for about 13 years. I started off with bauer and easton.Ive been with Graf for about 6 or so years now, and for the most part, I havent had any problems with them. After my g3's broke I bought a pair of 703s which felt good for awhile, but for the past couple months, havent felt that consistant. I tried wearing the synergy 1300's but hated those. I was looking at the vap. XXX's and I know this subject has been beaten to death, but are the xxx's going to feel alot like the synergies? The one thing i hated most about the synergies was the steel felt way different than the grafs. So are the xxx's going to feel the same? Thanks for the help guysEdit-sp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BushLeagueDangler08 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2006 Well the steel is just one thing that I was worried about. I was wondering if the overall feel of the xxxs are the same as the synergies. For the most part I like my 703's but the past couple months theyve started to feel inconsistant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Totally different, Ive been skating in synergies since they came out, and switched to Vapor XXX recently and it took me awhile to adjust.Also all of my Synergy skates had tuuk custom + put on.

BushLeagueDangler08 0 Report post Posted August 25, 2006 Alright thanks guys now one more question...Is it me or do the xxxs seem to come in 2 different colors? Ive seen many pairs and it looks like some of them have a purple-grey fade and others seem to go from blackish-grey fade..closest examples I could find online...
