Where should I take my Pure Fly's for new holders?

[jeffw 1]

I took a slapper off the toe and it cracked the holder. I live in South central Pennsylvania and need a reputable shop to swap out the holders. i don't want a hack job! I'll mail 'em somewhere if I have to! I just want it done right.

I'm also looking for recommendations on which holder to put on 'em. Pitch? Lightspeeds?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Take them to Chadd's shop. I'm not sure exactly where it is, but I'm sure someone on here does.

I'd personally go with Pitches.

Mail them to RDV SportsPlex in Orlando and have JR do the work for you.

When I bought mine, I got them from www.cupolosports.com and they did it right there. They did a REALLY nice job too. I dunno how JR could be any better, but from what I've heard he's a champ at it. I'd personally go with JR if you want to mail it, otherwise see if Chadd could do it.

EDIT - BTW I got Lightspeeds on them from Cupolo.

Chadd's shop is in Lancaster. The PITCH Holders are nice. I have them on my Graf G35's.

Chadd's shop is in Lancaster.

Prolly too far to drive (2 hours at least) After some thought I realized that I like the F-Pro holders just fine. Wonder if they're available?

Jeff - I can take care of you.

One day turnaround, Priority Mail. You'll get your skates in a couple of days after I do them.

Let me know -

I highly recommend JR for any holder change/repair. I also absolutely love the PITCH holders.

Where are you, Gettysburg or farther west?

Hey Chadd, off the hockey topic but do you ever go the B&B Amish discount grocery store in Quarryville? I miss that place, groceries 10 cents on the dollar.

Never been there. I grew up in Williamsport and tend to stick to the more populated areas now. Good thing there's not much traffic or it would take more than my normal 45 minutes to get here every day.

I'm a good half hour west of Gettysburg. My sons team is playing near DC today so I think I'll take them to a shop I know in Rockville. We'll be back down there next weekend so I can pick them up then. Till then I have my old Nike arch-busters to use. Hope I don't get plantar fascitis again, tho. :(

Thanks for all the help, guys.

Hockey Stop?

[jeffw 1]

Yep

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

I've been there. They're expensive. Dunno about their riveting quality though.

[jeffw 1]

They're expensive.

I'm not surprised. There's not many options around here. They do holder replacement at the rink in Frederick (1/2 hour drive) but those butchers will never touch another pair of my skates! (long story)

If the Hockey Stop turns out to be more $$$ than I wanna spend then I'll ship 'em to you. Thanks again for the help/info.

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

I was just talking about their store. I don't know how much they do skate work for.

[jeffw 1]

welp, I called the Hockey Stop and they'd have to order anything I need so I'm thinking send 'em to JR. Could you please email me with your address/contact info and a price on a)replacing both F-Pro holders with the same b)relacing with Lightspeeds w/non-perf steel and sharpening to 3/8". Size is 288. Thanks, Jeff W
