Step vs. Mission Pitch steel

[sickwilly 37]

Can anyone compare the quality of the steel in Mission Pitch holder to Step Steel? I'm considering mounting Pitch holders on some new skates. Thanks in advance for any input!

Pitch steel is some of the best ever made. Your problem will be finding replacements should they break or wear down. If I were you I'd just go with STEPS which are a good quality steel which will be around for a long time.

Thanks for the feedback. Do you consider the Pitch steel to be superior to Step Steel? I was actually considering getting a few sets of the Pitch holders/steel so that I would be all set for a while.

So if you have a Mission Pitch holder, you can just buy the corresponding size Step Steel & it will fit on the Pitch holder?

The reason I ask is I mounted the Mission Rush holder off of my NME on to a pair of APX after the holders cracked.

Would I be able to replace the Mission Rush Steel with the corresponding size Step Steel?

Yes Mission Pitch3 steel is better. I don't believe STEP makes runners for old Missions. If you can find a few sets, good luck.

There are still sets of Pitch3 on ebay pretty frequently.

What's the cost difference between pitch steel and step steel?

Set of Pitch3 holders/steel on eBay = $25-$30 (less if you ask for a deal on multiple sets, which the guys who are selling them off are always happy to do)

So, less than half the cost of one set of Step, steel only.

Does the Pitch3 holder mounting holes match up to either Custom+, LS2, or LSEdge rivet holes of the equivalent size?

[McDugan 89]

I don't recall for sure, but I'm pretty sure it lines up with Custom +.

I can confirm McDugan and tell you that the pitch holders line up with the custom + and the Easton rbz/rbz ii holders since I've had this done before.
