Recommendation for replacement tongues for mako skates

[iceman8310 105]

Can anyone recommend replacement tongues for mako skates and where to get them installed?  My mako tongues are worn out

You could use CCM tongues and just drill two holes to accommodate the attachment clips. That would be the easiest and gives you multiple thickness options. You could also (or have it done) Speedy Stitch a set of Nash Super Sniper replacements or a set from a pair of donor skates of your choosing. Another option would be to remove the existing tongues, stitch or epoxy a tab of loop Velcro to the underside of the toe box and use True tongues.

Can you recommend a place?   Might use true tongues and take off the velcro.

I second this idea

You live in Mass? Any good pro shop in your area and or a shoe repair shop can do the work. However it was described above as a simple diy.

Ive done this on a pair of TRUE and Bauer skates recently. It works well.

Good point.  Can bring them to tsr.  Was just wondering what tongue would work since the mako was disconnected
