I don't know if the Vibe is an SMU, I got a Vibe stick too, so they seem to be available in more than one outlet

i wasn't sure if they were SMU's either but i though that was the best way to describe them.

vector control is the V08

vector vibe is the V06

vector shock is the V04

im positive about the control and vibe, not the shock though

The control isn't a low quality skate because it's an SMU though... it's a pretty good price if you want the RR's on a Vector skate

SMU's are usually better quality products than the catalogue versions

how do you figure?

it MAY be the case sometimes, but "usually" is hardly the word i'd use.

the ones that ive seen always have a feature from the boot a price point above it

tongue, liner, outsole, etc

I believe I have read on this forum that SMUs can have had problems with misaligned holders.

I think you're talking about "Seconds". Those are the skates (or other items) that don't pass through Quality Control. Some of the manufacturers have been selling these items on the cheap to the big dealers.

SMU means Special Make Up. It's a slightly altered version of a stock product, made specifically for certain stores.

Of course, ALL brands and models of skates have had problems with misaligned holders, SMU or not.
