I need to get new skates. There’s nowhere around here where I can go and try on any of the skates I want: ccm v10.0, bauer one90 and one95, nike flexlite, and easton s15. I realize that great skate and every shop is at the end of their product year, but I know there’s gotta be some store in canada not too far from here or some shop in a small town in the states that is bigger than great skate (more volume maybe) that may still have stuff. The guy from Reid’s was very nice and I’d go to him at a different time in the season, but right now they don’t have much. anyone know about a good shop? ---

you could check out Reid’s Hockey Store right over the boarder … I wouldn’t recommend the S15’s … they are a light skate, but many people are having the boots crack once they get hit with a puck … ---

They’re skate sharpening is the best however imo. ---

Not sure if he still has them but sports replay had a pair of rebelions left (new) they are out of business but they are the best skate i have ever had. Honestly i dont even wear socks some times and from day one i have zero blisters. Not to mention they were 450 and now 129. ---
