Easton SE16 Skates 2009

Recommended Posts

Can anyone help?

I really like the feel of these skates but I hate that they just come in just white in the states. The black version is only available in Europe.

Anyone know a online European dealer that might sell them in black?

looking for the 2009s

2009 = White version.

2008 = Black version.

Not including Europe. It sucks, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

09 has the Vibram toecap and like I said, Europe only. Apparently though your LHS can special order the black but it's not available for booking/stock.

Just had a session with the Easton product equipment manager and he showed a video of the S19 stick (which looked and seemed like a mix between the S17 and the SE16 technology) and the all black SE16, which is slated for a release close to the Christmas season. Funny side note, it was Heatley who was in the video.

Surely you mean the all black S17 skate.

Pretty excited to see an all black easton skate. If they hold up better then there old ones, id love to have a pair. Eastons seem to fit me fine, just need a set of tuuks.

Wow. An all black Easton s17 skate. Even the runners. As I have black laces and black holders on my s15's, and the Eastons are the only skate that fits me, I may have just found my next skate (that is if my s15's will ever die.....1 yr old and still in amazing shape)

Which Tuuks are you talking about because I made the switch from a pair of skates with Custom + to '08 SE16's with the Easton blades and found them to feel quite similar under my feet. I have the parabolic steel so the one adjustment I made was taking my usual 9 foot radius down to an 8 foot.

I went from tuuks to the Razorbladez 11 when I went to Easton skates. I just put the solid steel in them and found the RBII runners to be perfectly fine. I just dont see why people hate the RBII so much. Maybe Im missing something.

The holder's white.

Too much flex and poor hardware as well as the steel is the downfall of the RBII. Switching to their standard runner does improve things a bit.
