new skates

Recommended Posts

I am currently skating in easton s15s. i am looking for new skates as my s15s are trashed. i was originally going to get x 60s but i cannot find them anywhere in my sie (8.5D). i did find the x 50s in my size. how are these skates compared to the 60s. i was also considering the new ccm u+12s. how do the ccm u+12s compare to the 50s or 60s? also if you have any suggestions for skates let me know?

I know the Vapor 50's are an excellent skate and a great alternative to it's much more expensive cousin the Vapor 60's. I can't tell you about the U+12's because they just haven't been out long enough to get a reasonable review on them. The initial verdict on them is they aren't a bad skate but they need to be time tested for durability and quality yet. Personally I'd go with the 50's because their much more a proven skate.IMHO.

i have tried on both and liked the fit on the vapors more. i am leaning towards the vapors anyway, but just wanted to know about the ccms. does anyone know where to find x 60s in a 8.5D?

There are a lot of guys out there that don't like a fully composite skate, just too stiff. I preferr one. Love the support and protection factors. (Personal preference issue.) Easton didn't do themselves any favours either by cheaping out on the S-15 abd S-11's.
