I have a pair of Bauer X60 skates with the XXXX graphic package Would it be ok to show pics?

Recommended Posts

my only option with these skates is to get them online if i want them

I assume he doesn't have a LHS or he bought the Flexlites before realizing what type of skate they are.

I don't have a good lhs, so now my only option is online. I don't like this since I have to pay an extra 100$ shipping plus 19% of the package's value when it enters the country. At that point they were my best option, plus I was really hyped about getting skates. About the costs, if you guys know a really good deal on the price tag or shipping, let me know, please.

Just saying, you could plan an April trip to a not-so-local-hockey shop. Get a couple of buddies and take a weekend day trip. Then you could make sure you have a good fit, a first sharpening and probably baking.

Unless you are seriously in the middle of nowhere, or if you can't drive yet...

I'm not in the middle of nowhere, I'm in the middle of Europe :P. My other option is a guy that imports on demand and is about a 3-4 hour drive, I'm going to give him a call and see what is what. So unless any of you guys know a cheaper way (on shipping or product, I heard at one point that someone knew a place to buy the one95 at a much lower price) I'm stuck with the import guy or hockeymonkey/icewarehouse. cheers

Are you sure your Flexlite foot is going to fit into a Vapor boot?

yes, because I have a skinny foot, I bought the flexlites because back then I didn't knew so much (like I do now, thank you www.modsquadhockey.com :D )and they seemed ok. ohhh.... and they're size 8.5EE, I think I can put a hamster with my foot in a skate and he would still have room to run around :P

How long have you used them?

I could be interested

Edit: nvm your in Europe

Anyone ever hear of a skate called "Tribal"?

It is supposed to have special memory type foam in the liner that makes the boot form to your feet every time you lace it up, and when you take off the skate it returns to its original form.

Sounds to me like the X60 is going with the same concept?

I'd sure as heck like that in a Supreme fit boot.

Anyone know what the HydroMax liner is? Sounds like the new X60 wont be clarino. I saw one of the product books today at a local shop when ordering a slew of P92 blades

I'm sure this has been discussed and posted already, but here is a decent pic of Richards' X60's, or at least the back of them

The only problem is that the only people who know about it are the shop workers (less than 5%) and they're not willing to divulge, which is perfectly fine with me. Let's just wait until they come out. Knowing earlier isn't going to make it any better.

The last time I saw the X:60 was the first week of October! It looked great then. The fit stock I tried on was awesome but other than that October was a long time ago in my world!! Just wait a few more weeks. Time flies when you're waiting for Vapor.

This is truly idiotic - you guys are going apeshit over an image in which someone photoshopped colors onto.

The downward slide continues

I'm a Supreme guy, so I really dont even care too much at this point. I guess if you've blown thru your pair of Vapor XXXXs already, I suppose I can see why someone would be excited...it is obvious that the true external graphics are not out there for the public to see, so I'm not sure why people are going apeshit over modified pictures either. I'd be more interested if there is a new Supreme line coming out this summer.

What happened to my question about substantive discussion of the skate? Are we not allowed to talk about the technical aspects of the skate?

No one has used the skate in game or testing conditions. How could we reasonally discuss the skate without using it? Whoops, that's all we've been trying to do since October.

I assumed those of you who had tried it on are not under NDA. We can't show pictures but no one said anything about the construction/materials.

Agreed. As much as I love new gear, I love my one95's and have very little desire to get these skates. Its fun to get excited, but if this keeps up I'll have to colour my own pair of x:60s and paste them on PHEW as "OMG unheard of x:65. AMAZING CRAZY LIGHT BETTER THEN one95's!!!11!!!" just to stir up some more fun.

Not sure what the rules are but I found this on youtube so I just took a screen shot. If they look anything like this then I am in love. I've been using the Vapor 40's for almost a year now and love them.

So rather than try and figure out what the rules are you just post the pic? And people wonder why I get annoyed.

EDIT:

Folks, let us handle the moderation duties. let one (or all) of us know if something needs to be removed and include a link.
