flyweightphantom 1 Report post Posted November 7, 2013 Justin do we have an actual date for the skates yet or is it still up in the air with a mid-late november launch? I see inlinewarehouse states nov 25? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted November 7, 2013 The skates are on the water right now. A few models are here right now, and we are expecting them to arrive in our warehouse around the 15th. We will ship them right out to the dealers as soon as we receive them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjs0433 15 Report post Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) I'm hoping my local store gets them in. They had a small selection of the previous generation. By the sounds of it I think the boots would work well for my foot.Also, will your movement chassis be available separately?

mmm2893 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 Just about to order some new Alkalis! unfortunately no local shops around me have them in stock so ill be picking them up online.Currently wearing 9.5 in tour bx pros... Just wondering if id still be a 9.5 in a pair of ca9 rpds or would it be safer to order a 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjs0433 15 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 In regards to fit of the heel....would you say your skates are more like the Bauer Vapor line or Supreme line? My foot just can't do the Vapor boots but the Supremes are just about perfect. I'm probably going to grab some new skates next year and I'm looking at the RPD shift right now.

Just wondering if id still be a 9.5 in a pair of ca9 rpds or would it be safer to order a 9If you are a 9.5 in tours I would say you will need a 10 in Alkali. However it does depend on how you fit in your Tours, if your toe is brushing the toe cap then you are a 10 in Alkali, if you have some space then you might get away with a 9.5. Unless you are swimming in them you definitely will not fit into a 9. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darmin 2 Report post Posted November 11, 2013 I'm a supreme fit guy and my Alkalis fit perfectly after the bake! :)Hey where in Brisbane did you get the skates baked? I have a pair of the Ca7's and I find the tounge doesn't cover my foot compared to when I wear my supreme's. As a result hardly used them in the past year and a half as they are just too uncomfortable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ob2rescue 1 Report post Posted November 15, 2013 Have worn a size 7 CCM skate my whole life. Would that translate to a 7 in an Alkali skate as well? The CCM size 7 fits me perfectly. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hkfury 2 Report post Posted November 15, 2013 They just released the price of the skates here in Europe. Comp are $310, Team are $430... Quite a price increase... I can't imagine what they are going to pay in Australia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We plan on long nights to get all the orders shipped out.im sure everyone anxiously awaiting the new skates appreciate the work in designing and getting them out. I for sure do. max's are pre ordered and feet are waiting. Hopefully they can get in before the holiday week since open skate and league are off at that time. If not it'll be old wheels and garage hockey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted November 19, 2013 We are trying to get orders out as fast as possible. Most dealers should have the product before the holiday weekend. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Souldriver 64 Report post Posted November 21, 2013 I'm still highly anticipating the new TEAM pants as they look very nice at hopefully a comprable price range. I'm hoping for a good holiday bonus this year to pick up the new pants and maybe a new compression undershirt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
