Rbk skates

[jazz4all 9]

After trying on my friend's 7k 07 as some people suggested, i like its comfort, and especially its arch. Its lower than bauer and wider boot too..

But, when i saw a topic in roller hockey, i got an info that arch on 08 and 09 is higher than 07 version..

So, i'd like to know from all Rbk users here about..well if there's any specific changes on Rbk skates. Thank you..

For what it's worth, I have the latest 5K and the arch is pretty low, which is one of the reasons I bought them because my feet have pretty low arches. I've never tried the 07 though so I can't compare, but I can't see them being much flatter. They're also flatter than the Bauer One55 that I tried.

I too have a pair of the 2009 5K skates (I have Fred Flinstone feet: wide and flat) and they fit perfect; good width and a very low arch. When I tried skates on at my LHS, I tried on some CCM's in EE and they were killing my feet. I almost did not try on the 5K's because they only had them in a D width, but I figured that I was already there and why not? So glad, that I did. Probably the best thing to do is to head down to your LHS to check out the 2009 5K's for yourself to see how they fit. Good luck to you!
