Jbear 113 Report post Posted November 14, 2020 ...and...I'm swapping back. I got the regular thickness D30 tounge and unfortunately, it's cut a tiny bit different, and unfortunately it doesn't seem to cover/ pad the same arc at the boot top. There's a spot where the collar is digging into the inner upper ankle. I didn't have that issue with the original Metatomic tongue. The other observation is that they seem to shift outward as the game progresses and I have to keep pulling them back into position...annoying. That's another issue I didn't have with the original. I suppose I can play with heating...bending...molding...ect. or I can use the silicone collar that I use with my AS1's. They felt perfect before...maybe I just go back and take my lumps if I get hit in the instep. Or...maybe I'll give it one more game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BesToss 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2020 I've used the 7mm D3O tongue and swapped back to the stock one as well. The D3O tongue doesn't wrap the top of my foot as good as the stock one, even after I've skated with them quite some time. Maybe it's because they have never baked with the skates before so the materials haven't softened up. Nevertheless, I'll keep using the stock tongues until they break down in the future Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
