Nice Lightspeeds on your Stealths (and Grafs). Did they have to drill new holes in your Eastons?

[A2rhino 62]

Nope just drill them a bit bigger. With that being said I didnt do it myself but thats what I was told. I also put Superfeet insoles in with the little heel lift you get with the S15 then baked them. When they say that you can wear these out of the box they arent kidding. But now they fit like a custom skate. At least to my foot. I suprisingly like the tongue as well.

A2rhino, do the S15s fit anything like skates you've had previously, or do they feel different?

They feel SSSSOOOOOOOOOOO Different!!! I would give any skate I have ever worn or tryed on for these. This is a skate like no other. I cant believe that this skate will not take over the NHL. It is so light that you cant help but think that it will break after your first skate. Kinda like the first time you picked up a composit stick and were affraid to take a slap shot because you dropped $150.00 on it which was comparable to around $250 back then. But the skate is as I said; the closest thing to a custom fit skate that you'll ever get. The ankle pads (pad lock) is awesome. There is no seam between the toe cap and outsole. The tongue is moldable as well with a great lacebite system. FYI, I bought a pair of felt tongues to put in these skates thinking I would need them. Now I'm sitting on a pair of $50.00 tongues because I wont need them. At least not with these skates. As a senior member here said; Easton got this skate right!!! I should also add that I'm 5'11 218lbs. and these take my weight and actually use it to my advantage.

Sure wish I had $529 laying around...guess my 10.0's will do though.

If your skates fit and perform well for you dont worry about it.

Those XX's are gorgeous!

[EBondo 233]

At least I'm not the only one that likes them. They're different, I love em.

I started buying back some of the stuff i got stolen a couples weeks back.

i bought 2 warrior nipple grip shaft 85 flex,1 mac daddy 85 flex robitaille,new easton 1500c,My old MIA (only thing that did not got stolen) over 150 games on them and 1 smyth blade.I am still waiting for 2 other blades and mission v-hex2 shaft.I think i might go the one90 way for my ice hockey stuff but still not sure.And i got my bucket mission intake with blue oakley straight visor.

And i might go with blue holder on my easton (been out of the loop on ice hockey skate "been 8 year since my last game") if i can find them somewhere online.

Nice collection Havok. It's nice to see you're getting this stuff back. If you ever think about selling one of your nipple grip shafts, i'm interested.

[Havok19 0]

Ok i will keep that in mind.

How'd your stuff get stolen? If I ever had gear stolen, and I saw an opponent on the ice rocking it, that'd give me an excuse to pull a Jeff Kugel.

I just scored myself 2 pairs of Vector's at my LHS. I bought myself the last pair of Vector Pro's, and the last pair of Vector ZG130's, from their old stock. For the two pairs I payed under 250$, it was a steal of a deal.

New Pair of Vectors

My Vector Pro's came with blades, I just took them off so i can walk around the house with them lol.

I had LSP'S put on my Graf G3 GW that i got off a pair of One90s.. I know these look ugly, they're not THAT bad, but i won't lie i think they're ugly quite a bit.. They're my back up skate so i don't mind..

It looks like the tongues are pretty chewed up on those Grafs. They're not that bad, it's just the tongues that make them look pretty shoddy, otherwise they're okay.

[Archangel#16 1]

They're not the greatest but they're not the worst. I do have to agree with sabre here. The tongues really do make the skate look worse than it really is.
