hockeyguy2925 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 i'm looking at getting new skates as my 3 year old vapor xx's are falling apart. what would be the better skate for me to get the supreme 70's or the xxv's. i'm going to try them both on this week just seeing if you guys have any feed back.also when are the new model skates coming out? would it be worth waiting for these to come out either to get one of these or get the skates i'm looking at now for less? or is it not going to be for a while.

quasi 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 New skates come out next Spring (probably around April). There will not be any new skates in the Vapor line, so if the XXV's fit better, there's really no reason to wait. There will be an update to the Supreme 70 (called to ONE75) which will have NBH's new thermoformable foam.They're both good skates. You should buy whichever fits better.

Dubious 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 yah, theyre both really good skates that fit differently. i got the supreme 70's, and the only thing i didnt like was the tongue which gave me pretty bad lace bite so i switched it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leafsrok 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 these are two excellent pairs of skates that fit extremely different. go try them both on and see which fits better. since youre coming from XXs, the XXVs will probably fit you best out of th two, but you never really know till you try them on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know a couple people that went from XX's to XXV's, and they are extremely happy with the skate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know a couple people that went from XX's to XXV's, and they are extremely happy with the skate.that being said, you are taking a bit of a step down from the XX to the XXV(regardless of their roman numerals), but you should be happy with the skate either way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
