need a little help

hey guys...i got a pair of 190s about 3 weeks ago to replace my xxx. in the store, they felt very good, even before they were baked. i switched out the holder for the white so i wouldnt have to get used to the longer blade that apparently was difficult to get used to for some of my friends and got a forward radius on them to put me a little more on my toes. however, after 3 weeks, the skates just dont feel right. my forefoot is not locked well, and seems to be wiggling in the skate, and i went back to my xxx in my most recent skate (last night) and felt much better. long story short, i have a warranty thing with the store that allows me to trade the skate in a situation like this, and i am considering 3 options.

1. another pair of xxx

2. synergy 1500c (my brother has them and they seem to fit my foot well)

3. rbk 9k (wore a pair of my friend's that felt very similar to my xxx, altho im not sure if that was just an illusion from only wearing them for a short time)

i am most interested in the 9k, but i wanted to check with you guys here on the comparison of fit between the xxx and 9k, and maybe compared to the 190. anyways, thanks alot.

edit: also, how does the pitch of the 9k compare to the pitch of the xxx and the pitch of the 190?

if you like the xxxs so much i'd say just stick with them.

I too have one90s and just didn't like the feel. I am trying on new skates tonight and will be trying on many pairs including those mentioned. I believe the 9k has a neutral pitch sort of like the one90s do. I agree w/ pat, if you like the xxx that much you should stick with them.

hmm, if the overall feel is wrong go back to the the xxx's, but i had a heel lift installed in my one90's cause i kept going back to my xxx's and now my one90's feel amazing. i'm more on my toes and i get that explosiveness i feel from the xxx's

DO you mean the one90 fits very differently from the xxx or maybe its too stiff?
