Don't know what skates I should choose...

don't want XXX..too expensive for me..

because my XN10 cracked [look at other Topic]

and now I need new Skates and a new stick..

sooo..

just looking at the performance..not what they fit like!! :|

and whats would be your choice?

thanks!

well, they do fit completely different... The 8090 is a lighter skate than the XX and the general opinions is that it is quite a bit more durable as well. If I were choosing, I would by the 8090 for durability and fit reasons.

since all the durability problems with the XX im gonna say 8090 but only if they fit your feet.

8090s I have them and there great, comfortable and light. Depends what fits your foot tho.

Personally, I like the Vapor XX's. I still can't believe they can make a skate this light. I have heard that there were some problems with the outsole and blade cracking, etc.... but I haven't had any problems. The only thing I would change about my XX's is they aren't as comfortable as my Prostock Nike Ignite 1's. Vapor XXX's are sweet, but more $$$. If I knew they were more comfortable than my XX's, I would break down and get a pair. Can't go wrong with either one I think.

8090, because of the durability, better liner, lighter (though both are so light it makes no difference) and i think it looks better.

If one fits, the other doesn't, but everything outside of fit id give the nod to the 8090.

8090 now with LSII's?

I read that on Bauer.com ?!

Aside from the obvious answer of which fit your feet, I would say Vapor XX, but I haven't been able to try out 8090's..
