Graf Cobra to Tuuk Custom Plus sizing help

[ngray734 0]

I have decided to change my Cobras to Custom Plus holders on my 8.5 wide 735's. My Cobra holder says 280 on it. Will the Tuuk Custom plus holder need to be a 280 also? Just want to know if they measure out the same. Figured some of you guys have done this before.

Yeah, without actually looking, 8.5 wide should be 280.

You'll need to drill new holes for rivets and coppers that line up with the Tuuks though, the Graf RMS holes and anchors won't line up.

Size 8.5 EE (wide)

Tuuk Custom+, TUUK Lightspeed 2.1 Power, TUUK Lightspeed 2 - All 280. Just thought I would give you some options besides the Custom+

Not a problem. Just ensure that you have a very good LHS that can do the swap. The composite material can be tricky at times and especially with Graf outsoles.

There is actually a LHS, which has a great reputation in Metro Detroit, that only does sharpenings and skate repairs. They dont sell anything else besides a few insoles, laces, and tape. I'm surprized a place can stay open nowadays without offering more. Must be that good.

That's what they want you to think. I know the store in question and they're ok, but not "that good."

Just means he has lower overhead.

I know a store not too far from you if you are willing to make the drive, prob an hour or so. It's off of M59. PM me and I will shoot you the info. Great LHS and always take care of everything I've needed. I drive over an hour just to go to them, even though I have a Perani's about 10 mins away.

JR, What shops in Metro Detroit would you recommend for skate work?
