New skates and skate flex

Recommended Posts

I recently switched to some Bauer one75's from a VERY old pair of Vapor X's. I switched because the Vapors were worn out, and the new Vapor line x60, 40, etc... didn't fit my foot like my old Vapors, they were really uncomfortable. I tried the one75's on, and they fit like a glove, so I got those. HOWEVER, the stance is most definitely different with these than the Vapors, I feel like I have to stand upright more on these to center my balance. I am used to really bending my legs and leaning forward to accelerate. Will the one75 boot break in more to allow this over time? I bought the things so I have to get used to them somehow. Any suggestions??? Thanks for all the help...

my skate was vapor 12. and yeah, the stance is different. one75 is more upright. While vapor provide more forward stand. So, what im doin is, changing my lacing method, so i can have a good knee bend. Maybe bake it twice should be good. And also a lot of ice time. The will soften a bit by then. goodluck..this skates is great..however, the arch is too high T.T now im gonna buy a Rbk.LOL
