Thats It

Bought those missions off blume, which are now for sale by the way, fuel 100Ags size 10.5D an my big toe is still hitting. Should I just up to 11Ds or go a full size. Yeah I'd just run down to my LHS but they have nothing above a 10.5 in stock and those are in the 90AGs. Had them baked, used thin socks, etc. and my toe is still like smashed when i take the skate off. I need probably 1/4" or so. Any ideas?

I might just pick up some tacks or something.

Was told by the only place around with a stretcher they can't

Players Bench in Richardson?

how much you looking for those skates?

Yeah it was players bench. I'd like to get around $200 shipped for mine, give or take, I'm willing to work with you.

I have that pair saved under my ebay watching them. I may switch back over to bauers, I've been looking at the XXIIs and XXVs. I'm on the ice about twice a week max so the XXIIs might be fine for me. Not sure yet.

The missions were great for cornering, hence AG, but for acceleration they were just sub par. I was looking for some tacks in my size but couldn't find anything so I may swap back toi bauers. Maybe a shim in the back and I'll be good to go on the bauers.

Pretty much when I take the skates off, my toe looks like a square and will continue to hurt the next day.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thought I told you to avoid that place at all costs ;)

only place in DFW that has a stretcher, Patrick said no, the hockey shop in lewisville didn't have one either.

Peranis does if you want to make the hike.

Are you getting your heel locked in? It could be a case of your foot slipping forward in the skate that is crushing your toe.

[big ben 0]

yeah its definately locked, i have a blister to prove it.

A blister is caused by rubbing which would mean your foot isn't entirely locked in and there is movement of your foot against the skate.

I've tried every which way to make them fit, you could put a toothpick behind my heel. The blister is more towards the very bottom of my heel. Anyway, i have some bauer XXIIs on the way so I'll give those a whirl.
