Just leave it to Justin, when the time is right, he'll post up some pics. no point in hounding him to do it, especially when you know you have to get approval before releasing this kinda thing.

I just go to a local shop pick up a pair a Tour code 2 for a friends. I compare the weight with a wiked 3 => the code-2 are very lighter :( I didn't think that was so significant. What about the new Mission line with no carbon in the boot?????

Where the Tour skate are made??? I also compare the quality of manufacture. I was suprise, Mission has made really big progress. But there're still some bad assembly, sometime the top of the chassis does not even touch the outsole...(=still made in china <_< )

Concerning the inside of the boot, Tour are made more effort the inside is "more worked".

See ya :ph34r:

Laced them up tonight and skated around the rink lobby - I may actually muster up the courage and wear them out on the floor tomorrow morning. I think you guys will definitely like this skate. The liner is different from the prototype I saw earlier this year , with a bit more padding in the ankle. Feels very comfortable.

The gloves are well done as well. Thumb was a bit short for me, but it's like nothing that's on the market now.

Looks like the pictures expired. I asked Justin about it tonight - I'll try to get my pictures up tomorrow night to replace his - the email is on my work computer.

i got to skate in a boss prototype skate yesterday, really liked the skate. for comparison sake, i wear a 9E Rbk 9k ice which fits me perfect legnth wise, and the 10D in the boss skate felt nearly identical legnth wise, if i purchased the skate, i would have to definalty find the E width. very light skate, but the prototype i wore did not have the magnesium chassis on it so i believe the retail will be even lighter. very comfortable out of the box besides my personal width issues. the indy foam in the the ankles is a great improvment over the composite ankles from the wicked line. first time skating on the vanguard, and i could definatly feel the differece. im a life long hilo user, but ill definaltly make the switch to the vanguard. i had greater grip and greater top speed, but i feel that i lost A LITTLE agility. personally im a big fan of the hyper trinity flex wheels, and i think it was a good idea to use thoes over the rink rat wheels. i saw the full line and every thing looks very well done. the boss gloves have the 3 piece fingers besides the pinky which provides a very broken in feel, but the thumb seems to be a bit short. any questions on any of the product ask, and im sure me, jr, or justin could help you out. big thanks to justin and his crew for bringing out the product and letting us be the first people to try it out.

There was something wrong with the 12EE skate they had - one of our store managers skated in them and I did afterwards. We both agreed there was a problem - it seemed like the wheels were locking up. However, I really like the fit of the boot - what was weird was that I had zero pain in my feet/arch, and that NEVER happens to me with skates.

if you want a closer look at some of the new mission skates http://www.narch.com/gallery/index.html?ac...fornia_-_Irvine gerry ostercamp has a pair on (Boss) and a couple others..

i love the picture that says "a good skater can skate on anything". Its a great picture of the skate. Too bad you're not allowed to play with less than 4 wheels.

as long as you start the game with 4.

Wow dude #77 is skating on 3 wheels and isn't lacing the top two eyelets. Those skates must be stiff as hell, I've never seen anyone go down two eyelets.

Jerry has done that on every skate he has worn (Mission, Bauer, etc.)

Justin, just out of curiosity, have you decided what color the after market chassis will be, and will it be MG? I'm eagerly awaiting this to toss on a new pair of s500's sitting in my closet.

The 7000 Series Chassis will be Silver/Chrome for the Regular Chassis, and Black for the Magnessium with Red Graphic....The samples on the road trip are not 100% Correct...
