Graf G70 vs. Vapor XXXX

Recommended Posts

I am currently skating in CCM Vector 130ZG skates; size 11.5 in regular width, and looking to get a new pair.

The Vectors are still very stiff, but starting to crack in different areas (mostly plastic) and the top of the skates have always dug into the bone right above the ankle.

My left foot is slightly wider than my right and the CCMs and RBKs pinch a bit. I have tried on the top skates from Nike, RBK, CCM, Mission, and Easton, and the Nike Vapor XXXX fit the best in size 11.5 EE. The toe box is actually wider than the CCM or RBK, with a good amount of wiggle room.

Before I drop good money for these, I want to make sure I've tried every top skate out there. The only 2 that left that I have a hard time finding at any LHS in my area are the Graf G70 and Kor Shift 1/2. I'm really interested in the G70 because I have a high instep, and the Vapor XXXX skates could use a little more room in that area (not a huge issue, though)

Does anyone know an LHS in northern NJ or NY Metro area, that carries either?

If not, does anyone know what the comparable sizes would be, and if there is any reason that I should stay away from any of these skates: Vapor XXXX, G70, or Shift 1/2

Thanks!
