Tubesteak

I can't notice a 4mm difference in runner can I?

My go to skates are Graf 703 with Cobra 254's. Profiled to 9' instead of the standard 11 and added a minor forward pitch. I skated on a pair of 707's today...old model with Tuuk custom but new out of box. Anyway as I'm in warmup doing backwards crossovers it felt like I "ran out of blade" on my outside edge (inside foot) near the end of my stride. Whatever...adjusted and played fine in them. I noticed the Tuuks are 250's instead of 254's. I'm thinking it's probably a pitch issue but curious as to what you think. Both skates are size 6.

Thanks Rubo! I actually have an extra set of cobras in 254 I plan on having thrown on. The Tuuks are actually mounted with cobra screws so I'll stick with those. I know all the holes won't line up but is it a big deal for me to replace the runner or should I take them to my LHS?

Just drill holes if needed in the Cobra holder and mount with the RMS screws. Been swapping holders on my Graf for years just using the RMS screws and never a problem. Way cheaper and easier than drilling the boot and you can always switch back if you have to.
