Jbear 113 Report post Posted November 23, 2019 I'm in AS1's and love them, but being 168-ish...they're a little tough to flex forward at lower speeds. Full speed is spectacular, but I'm wondering if I should consider Ribcors. When I bought these, I tried on 2s Pros. If I recall, they were a little more flexible. Should I consider those? Asking here because I may buy used online and don't want to take up my local shop's time trying on skates. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chikinpotpie 137 Report post Posted November 23, 2019 Try some weighted lunges those will help you flex better and maybe drop an eyelet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jbear 113 Report post Posted November 23, 2019 I appreciate the response. It's more of a comfort issue than a lack of ability to flex the boot. I guess I shouldn't have said "tough to flex." I should say they are tough on my feet around the collar of the boot. I do use a gel sleeve, which helps with that. Just always looking for improvement. I'm skating an average of five times a week between coaching and my own teams, so a second pair wouldn't be a terrible idea anyway. Thanks again!
