i dont think there is exact numbers on which skate is the most skated on due to every thing always changing and obviously there is experimentation with quite a few players, but i know ive seen a thread on here a while ago that had general percentages as for how many people wear what skate. if you use the search feature im sure you would beable to find the exact thread.

Search is your friend.

JR gave a breakdown....NBH on top.

Vapor XXX is by far most used skate.

Why is the Vapor XXX the most popular skate? Is it THAT well marketed or is

it the best skate out there technology and performance wise?

Marketing doesn't really get a skate on a pro's foot. Fit and player preferences are what will get a particular skate on a person's foot. For example, Graf does not have player sponsors or any good marketing, but you certainly see plenty of pros wearing the skate.

However, there are far less players wearing Graf than there used to be.

True...but not related to marketing...more related to quality, fit, weight, etc. Time will tell on the acceptance of the new Graf Ultra G3, G5, G70 lines with weight reduction and synthetic materials.
