Synergy lacebite/shockdoctor footbed question?

[kovalchuk71 212]

In the 1500c tongues, there is a hard insert or something like that. If I remove it, will it affect the preformance of the skate at all? I wasnt sure if it did anything or not. It is giving me lacebite.

Are the laces themselves digging in, or the edges of the insert? My L7s have something similar and I assumed that it was there to prevent lacebite. It hasn't given me any problems yet.

[Chadd 916]

Generally the inserts are there to prevent lacebite.

[kovalchuk71 212]

For those of you that have synergy skates, how many of you have experienced lace bite or pressure on your forefoot area? How did you solve it? Is pressure on the top of my foot considered "lacebite"?

[pantherfan 0]

Has the insert lost stiffness or is it really bent over?

[kovalchuk71 212]

No.

But is pressure on the top of my foot considered lacebite?

That sounds like a skate that isn't deep enough for you

[kovalchuk71 212]

Hmmm. I never thought of that. So I suppose synergies arent deep? I had flexlite 12's before, are they a deeper cut skate?

Could it also be the thickness of the shockdoctor footbeds? I have been using superfeet and the SD's feel thicker especially in the skates themselves. Is this true?

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

Yeah, if you ditch the SDs, you'll get more volume. THose things are thick as sin.

[kovalchuk71 212]

LOL, They take up half the damn skate.

If you want to remove that toung insert we did.

It did not give my son any lace bite at all.

[kovalchuk71 212]

Did get get lacebite with the insert in?

Which superfeet would work with the synergies? Black or grey?

find an old pair of spongy shit from old gear or something like something rubery spongy and cut it so it goes from one side to the other of ur foot, and insert it inside ur skate make sure its like medium thick it worked for me with my 1300's

I get a little pressure if I tie my skates to tight, but i just loosen the skate a bit and it goes right away.

[kovalchuk71 212]

I feel the skates are more comfy with my shockdoctors, is that because I baked them with the shockdoctors and not the superfeet?

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

Um no it's because the SDs have more cushion to them.

[kovalchuk71 212]

Is is PP, or is it better to not have so much cushioning as the SD's?

[troy 12]

I'd imagine you'd get better feel for the ice, or floor in your case, with a thinner insole.

[kovalchuk71 212]

So all in all its just PP?
