[thinkhit 0]

i am getting back into hockey after 10 years. I need new skates i have a wide foot in the front thiner in the ankle.I like a skate with good support one ankle turns in little. Have narrowed the choices to ccm u light,bauer x60 or 11k pump any help or advice would appreciate

did you narrow them down by trying them on?

Just curious as to why the bauer supreme line is not among your choices?

I have tried on the x60. From what i have read you can not tell anything about the ccm unless you bake them will be trying on the 11k this week

The U+ really needs to be baked, but it still has a really big heel pocket. Worth trying your LHS for it though. Best of luck.

Get the skate that fits you the best, regardless of brand name. Don't buy a skate without trying them on first. IMHO.

It's my understanding that those skates all fit differently (ie, the X60's run true to width while the U+CL and 11K run wide). You'll have to try them all on and take it from there.

Thanks was just wondering if any one that uses those skates how they find the support after having used them the feel once they have broken in. When there new in the store i found that its hard to tell what they will preform like until you actually skate on them if i could get any feed back on that. I am a cut and slash skater more east west than north south
