Brilliant video Just started skating with the kids and ended up loving it myself so looking to get my own skates so I don’t have to hire those plastic welly boot ones with chipped blades Thanks a lot 👍🏻 Comment from : thetranceengineer |

Thank you for the amazingly informative video! I have a question about distance from the ice type of skate I was told by a friend that CCMs tend to be closer to the ice/ground than Bauers Is this true? Furthermore, which skate brand/model would give you the closest clearance (which I am looking for) to the ice/ground? brbrMany thanks! Comment from : sundance19 |
|
You are helping me alot, I wish you'd have a buying guide category on your channel, it would make searching much easier 😃😄 Comment from : Jonathan |

How is someone supposed to know which skate fits their skating style, where I'm from you can't try before you buy You get a pair fit and hope for the best unfortunately Comment from : Adam17 |

Woah! I didn't know there was a new fit system, I always squeezed my feet in vapors cuz supremes were ugly 🤣 Comment from : Erik Siddons |

|
Regarding College Level Player brbrThe skate category breakdown was terrific How can you feel and determine the your best performance skate between manufactures You mention fit and blade runners brbrOther than your local hockey sporting chain store, Is there a facility in the states that can truly determine the right manufacturer for fit, compare performance, blade runner feel, etc brbrAny suggestions would be greatly appreciated brbrThank you Comment from : Christopher Zito |

Just upgraded from my 20 year old Easton zAirs this vid is so on point I'm a 6'1" 225 lb defenseman and I wanted to fall in love with the Vapor 2X Pros but in 2 sessions, I couldn't stop thinking about the skates the whole time and the feel was wildly different I noticed the benefits of the skate when I would breakout a puck or back check, but also that I was struggling to do the things that I did normally in my old ones Maybe not so much struggle, but it seemed like I needed to pay more attention to it than normal? It's hard to explian Regardless, I moved to the Ultra Sonics and they felt just like the old Easton's did and it didn't take long to acclimatebrbrA friend of mine once said "A good new pair of skates should feel about 80-85 like a good old pair of skates" and that helped me realize the Vapor line just wasn't for me Comment from : Komrade Klutch |
|
Subbed geez 💯 been helping me alot last month, taken up ice skating just for public sessions, and your videos best ones on YouTube tbh 💯🔥 thankyou Comment from : Tex |
|
Okay, but if I'm looking for my first pair so I can learn to skate how do I pick which line to get from? Just by looks? ( I love the Jetspeeds with all the red, because it's my favorite color lol) Comment from : Brooke Elayna |
|
I really appreciate these skate videos I now realize I should be using the Supremes I'm 200 lbs and and play defense I have always used the vapors and the cheaper ones Gonna pay the extra money for the stiffer boot that will stop the lace bite I get too Gotta make a change Anyways great videos New subscriber!

|
Thanks bro! Comment from : Eric Garcia |
|
Great info! loved the vid! Just out of curiosity, what was the big differences between the hyperlites and ultrasonics that made you prefer the Ultrasonic skates? Thanks! Comment from : Aaron Stonelake |

I'm located in Canada Pacific Northwest, I've skates 30+ years , in CCM, Bauer, and currently, use the Top tier, the True Brand custom made skates, my latest pair The True Skates are 1100 Cad, and are custom- based on 3d scan of your foot My former CCM Uplus + 8years ago- heat moldable , had to be punched in the arch to accommodate a calcium growth caused by pressure on inside of the foot- the navicular bone in the arch area "Bauer bump" I decided to use True, and addressed the fit issue for difficulty in find a proper fit I would say it is the Tesla of skates, that don't have the marketing budget to provide the "Reviewer a pair to use that Bauer, and CCM have FYI Pavel Barber uses True skates, for those with difficulty in finding comfortable fitted skates, not mentioning True as an alternative to CCM or Bauer is an oversightTrue also offers two more affordable versions for those that can fit "off the self" Comment from : F Pop |

|
Hi! I used to play loads when younger and now I want to skate and play I am super confused about all the choices etc Nice channel that clarifies the whole thing Comment from : Wojciech Siuda |
|
Why do you not recomend True? Or the custom price of True compared to the price of the top line of bauer and CCM? I'm a bauer guy since I started Been playing for thirty years But I might take a plung of the True customer for a same price I would get for the top line bauer or CCM that are not custom Thoughts?

|
I always feel too flat-footed with most skates What are the best choices for a forward angled, aggressive skate? Like a 15 or 20 degree forward lean? Or would this be more of a blade profile issue?? Comment from : IIISWILIII |

|
Awsome video,I'm not into baeur i can't get in with them so I go with CCM Comment from : kenneth |
|
This is all great information if you are able to test different skates, otherwise you're just trying to make an educated guess You really need to test the skates on ice to choose which ones work and feel the best like you did with the Vapors and Supremes but unless you're a pro or influencer you most likely won't have that option Comment from : JJM |

I manage 2 pro shops, one in a low-middle income area and the other in a wealthy area I treat both shops the same and try to get people the best skates for them specifically People often tell me "so and so down the street said I needed $800 skates" and I'm always like absolutely not In my opinion if everyone simply bought the most expensive skate they can afford they'd be throwing money away and possibly holding themselves back Everyone is different and needs a different skate, the highschool team I work with 99 of the time should not be using CCM Tacks AS3 Pro's even if you can afford it Some of the pro team players I work with I don't even recommend them I feel like the CCM Tacks AS line was like the default shops recommended when that skate is not good for most people Maybe it's just my area, but I swear the CCM Tacks Pro skates were the one everyone knew by name and pushed Comment from : TheGreatChrisB |
|
Halo friend I want some ski shoes Comment from : Tsewang Galtson |

Fantastic breakdown as always, especially helpful was the breakdown on blades and the bladetech recommendation, those are great steel My fav part of the video was "the looks - let's not pretend like that's not a real thing" lols Comment from : Conway Banks |
|
This actually is a amazing video for the hockey parents new to the sport Comment from : Tray Pogg |
|
I have the Reebok pumps Comment from : Brock Shaw |
|
i know this is probably not common at all, but personally for some reason i just got new skates and they are 2 and a half sizes smaller than my everyday shoes and both shoes and the skates fit perfectly I don’t know if anyone has had a similar situation, i don’t think any of my teammates have I’be played hockey now for about 7+ years and am 15, and i’m not sure but i think it’s been a similar situation for that entire time Comment from : Soren |
|
Ah mate just what I needed! I kept commenting on your old videos about buying skates hahahah Hell yeah! Comment from : JonelaRen |
|
Thanks for not uploaded this a week ago before I bought my first pair of skates 😭 Comment from : Nate Preston |
|
@Hockey Tutorial when you tried the Hyperlite and Ultrasonic skates, did you use the exact same pair of blades in both of them? I found that my Hyperlited felt a little awkward at times when using blades right out of the package (with the standard 10ft radius of the Pulse series) But once I used blades with the appropriate Quad profile on them, they actually felt pretty naturalbrbrIt could definitely be that the Supreme is better for your skating style But I figured I would ask if it was a fully apples to apples skating test between the two styles Comment from : Alex Hickman |
|
If you've got baby feet like me, you'll save at least $100 on intermediate vs senior skates Comment from : Shawn Thompson |
|
I think you forgot the 4th category for players who get top-end skates: hockey shop employee who like having nice things! 🤣 I fall into that category big time, but I'm very happy with my Hyperlites! Comment from : Alex Hickman |
