Kor Skates

[pdchockey 0]

I think I remember a discussion in the past about the new Kor hockey skates. A search turned up empty. Can anyone help me locate this thread, if it was in fact discussed? I found their web site and am curious about MSH feedback on these new skates which are coming out. Hence, my use of the search.

Thanks

Chadd, what are your fist impressions on the skate? Have you tried the skates yet? How do they compare to the synergy 1300? <_<

I tried them on at the show and they baked well. THey are low cut which is a plus. They didn't feel that great until they were baked.

It's a full eyelet taller than my S500, so I will be using them with one eyelet unlaced. The ones we got were 9s and I need 10 or 10.5 so I have not skated in them. They are slightly heavier than the 1300c but I never cared about pure weight on any skate. I also like the fact they come with a little "arch cookie" to help make sure you get the proper arch chape. Plus they're $100 or so cheaper than the 1300c and come with the pitch holder.

The little foam puck?

[Chadd 916]

no, more of a 3d triangle that goes under the footbed. I'm interested to see how it works.

the feeling of the foam puck is weird at first, but i really like it now. i tried it on a few times. im waiting for the new ones to come out.

Mike Brown wears them in Norfolk this year. He's the only guy in the AHL rocking them though. Nothing but good things to say bout them

Ive tried both the New [2005] Model, also I was lucky enough to try out 2 diffrent prototypes within the last 2 years.

Thats weird, it had the list of all 4 Kor threads on it, guess it timed out or I screwed up.

Something happened to the search. using "+" no longer works and it's back to requiring 4 letter minimum.

Just a quick question to Chadd, JR, or Tyler12. What type of foot did you feel they fit best, like compared to another skate ie: Vapors, Tacks, Vectors? Again just wondering, Thanks.

also, how does one acquire a pair of these?

[stix04 0]

The have the Kor Shift 1's at my LHS. I was looking at them, depending on how they fit I might take them into serious consideration for new skates this year. Plus's on them were they felt real nice inside, they're composite, but also bakeable, and they have Pitch holders on them, which I've been wanting to try out.

You can call the Kor Hockey company (contact info is on the korhockey.com site) and see if they have a rep in your area. I called and the rep is stopping by next week to fit me up and let me use a pair of demos for 1-2 weeks. :D I can't wait. So far I am very pleased with way the company has dealt with me. I will post a review of the skates on here once I try them.

[JR Boucicaut 3804]

1-2 weeks won't be enough time for you to submit a review for the review section. You can comment on them in a post, but don't bother doing a detailed review.
