flexlite 4.0 vs. x40 vs. stealth s12

I am trying to decide which skates to get out of the three of these. I have flat feet and are pretty wide in the toe area. Which of these three skates (or any other ones around the $300 price range) would be best for me?

Are you going to at least try them on before you buy them?

i would like to but theres not a pro shop within an hours drive from where i live so probably not.

If I were you I would give them a call, see what they have in stock and head out there. You might be a different size from one to the other, they might have all three in stock. Who knows? You'll either find one that fits or eliminate ones that definitely don't belong on your foot. Would you have any place to sharpen/bake them if you don't go there?

I know its very important to try on skates before buying them and i would really lik to make a trip to the shop, but my tryouts are later this week and i was planning on ordering them today or tomorrow and i probably wouldnt have time to make a trip.

And yes my friends dad has a sharpener and im sure i could get them baked at the pro shop after i get them.

by ordering them you take a chance of them not arriving on time if your tryouts are this week unless you plan on paying extra for faster shipping

I'd drive two hours to get properly fitted for skates.. Where are you located??

quick question guys, so I don't start another topic, what exactly is flexposite? a friend of mine riped the weave from a small part of the heel and there was plastic. is this what flexposite is? just plastic (better plastic, whatever). sry for highjacking the topic
