can u even do that?

@@connormcdavidss1345 Yea Frank Nazar on the hawks does it.

Highly mistaken😅

Hi! Thanks for letting me know. I’ve seen a few T6Ps out there but I never got to try one. I hope you get to try the T8P soon! 😊

Thank you!! 😊

Hi! Great question. So first it depends on how you like to feel the puck on your blade. The blade on the sync feels slightly harder than on the T8P. The sync has the connect tech to “dampen any vibrations” but it’s still very responsive. The T8P has the “dual feel” dampening foam in the “heel” but you still feel it throughout the blade not just in the heel. Both are responsive but I prefer the blade on the sync just a bit more. I do find myself using the T8P over the sync because the release is quicker and while I don’t mind the 5 sided shaft.. I prefer the more rounded corners of the trigger and I’m in favor of using a quick release stick for the time being. Hope this helps 😊

Which pair did you get? I’m currently trying out custom hyperlites

@@Chrissy1011 Hello!! I got the Ultrasonic I'm honestly not a 100% why. The guy just suggested it because I have a wider foot. The hyperlyte 2 is a killer skate too. If you go custom I think you will be happy either way. Good Luck ✌✌

Thanks for the review - good stuff. Do you feel like the custom hyperlites tipped you more toward bauer? I just tried the hyp2rlites but felt sloppy. I’m coming from custom trues so I don’t know if that’s a fair comparison. I’d be interested in trying a custom ft6 but don’t know if I’d still get that same “sloppy” feeling coming from trues.

@@rockybrowder5302 Funny because I went from custom VH before Van Horn sold to True. I felt the custom Bauer Ultrasonic fit great. The foot wrap on the True is definitely more then you get with Bauer. The CCM is a 1 piece boot so its more similar to the VH/True. Pro tip, when you bake your new skate, custom or stock doesn't matter, take an Ace bandage or something like it and quickly after you tie the skate wrap the bandage super super tight everywhere around the boot. It will insure a better wrap around your foot. :)

Great analysis! Yes. I noticed the neutral pitch of FT6P with the XS holder compared to the Tuuk/PowerFly. I noticed the stiffer post in the PowerFly holder on my first skate and I loved it. I’d switch my tuuk holders but it’s not worth the hassle. I have tons of LS steel and there is a way to make that steel fit the PF holder but ofc the work is going to have to be put in and it’ll void the warranty lol. But also, I’m in favor of the XS holder because of the STEP steel that comes with it and the quality. It’s just unmatched. Ever since Bauer released their black steel (LS5 at least) they mentioned not going so deep on hollow since the edge is so great. I never felt that was true 😂 at least not until I tried STEP. I’ve been slowing trying to move to a 1/2 hollow. I’m most comfortable at 7/16. When I skated that hollow in STEP, I felt like I could have gone to 1/2.. amazing bite. Now that I’m back in hyperlites (og), I skated 7/16.. and I was slipping. So I resharpened it to 3/8.. I’m still slipping 😂 so I’ll be going 5/16. This could be happening bc it’s the carbonlite steel. If I try the regular pulse with some extra weight it might feel “normal.” Any thoughts?

@@Chrissy1011 Hi Chrissy! All of your feedback is valid and I’ve noticed much of the same. If you’re asking my humble opinion, I believe that BladeTech is the best steel on the market currently. And this is coming from a guy who thought Step Steel BlackSteel was the best for years. And Step is definitely better than those other options you mentioned. Here’s why BladeTech is the best. It’s tall steel but not as tall as Step. This keeps the turning radius that you like but reduces the wobbly feeling you get with new Step Steel because of how tall it is. The toe and heel of BladeTech is more radiused and requires less effort to profile and allows you to just skate. It has a spring system in the toe area. BladeTech says it makes you faster but really the main benefit is that it take pressure off feet, ankles, knees and hips which is important to me because I have two replaced hips. Lol. Lastly, the actual steel is much harder than that of Step or anyone else. This just means that the edge sticks around a lot longer. The price is also the same as Step Steel BlackSteel. It’s $160 with the black DLC finish. If you want more info, I have a guy in Pennsylvania who I could put you in touch with. He’s one of my channel sponsors.

Did you try the holders on the same skate?

@@HYP3DSNIP3R Unfortunately, no. We only have steel for the Tuuk Edge and CCM XS holders. The pitch “should” be about the same as the Tuuk.

Thank you very much! 😊

Thank you! I hope both of you like the 8 Pro! What do you think of the 7 Pro?

@@Chrissy1011 So I actually think the trigger 7 pro is a better stick than the one I have. I keep breaking 75 flex sticks so I decided to jump up to an 85 flex. Unfortunately, I need to cut my sticks because I’m 5’10” and that pretty much turned it into a one million flex. Lol. What I’ve learned is that I need to stick with a 75 flex in low and hybrid kick point sticks, but can jump up to 80 flex in the supertacks line. With all of that said, I really like the potential that the 7pro has. I’m typically a supertacks guy but I might transition to the trigger 8 pro if it feels good. I’m having trouble with the shaft dimensions on the ASV pro.

Hello! Thank you for your comment😊 I’m sorry the Hyperlite 2 didn’t work for you. I know what it’s like to want a skate and it just doesn’t fit/ feel comfortable the way you want to. I had a positive experience with the Mach but I’m leaning toward the FT6 Pro. More comfort, more padding, better performance and better steel quality. The only things the Mach has going for it is that it’s lighter and blacked out if you like that look. Idk who said the Mach was very stiff.. I get it’s the top of the line boot but I always thought the ultrasonic and Mach lost some stiffness from the 2s Pro.. if they were stiffer I’d have liked them more. Keep me posted on your decision. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your opinion

So I went today to the shop and tried the mach in 6.5 fit2 and the ft6 pro in 6.5 tapered. they both felt great. I couldn't make my mind up, the mach in all black look incredible but so does the ft6 pro! I initially went for the ft6 pro as I wanted to try something new ( I never had ccm before) and ask the shop to warm the Oven until I pulled my scale out! 798g for the mach and 890g for the ft6 pro. The hyperlite 2 came at 820g in 6.5. 90g on one foot this is a big difference! maybe wrongly I changed my mind and went for the mach!

Wow, crazy experience there. Are you going to keep both the hyperlite and Hzrdus 9 or keep one/return the other? Yes, all skates with the stock insole feel flat footed until I put in the Speedplates or superfeet. I agree with you, too much flex on the FT6P tendon guard. At least for skates where agility and quickness are the priority, the tendon should have little flex. Just enough so the tendon doesn’t tear (used 1x skates). I felt the FT6 Pro was too stiff for me before I broke them in 😂 also both of my pairs are the same height, though the back of the ccm dips down a bit. I’m glad you found skates that you enjoy! 👏

I agree with you! But people will find something to hate on or find as a deal breaker, y’know? It’s kind of funny. When I first got these, I did a shorts video and my friends texted me as soon as they saw it. They asked why I got the skates and complained about the weight. The added weight, in some ways, is for the skater’s benefit. Bauer hasn’t matched this kind of fit.. who knows if they will 🤷‍♀️ thanks for your comment, I enjoyed reading your thoughts! 😊

@@Chrissy1011 ;)

Extra protection comes with extra 63 grams weight in her case. Nothing wonderful

Hi 😊 Thank you very much!

Hello!! Yes, I’ve seen your videos and Justin’s as well! Thank you for your comment and reaching. I’d be honored to collab or share ideas with you and the group! The content for this channel will be about skates and sticks for now. I’ve got a Hyp vs Hyp2 skate video in the works, as well as a T7P vs T8P. Can’t wait to get those out!! 😁👍

Oooh. Good question and interesting situation you have going on there. So I definitely baked these in the store when I got them. I wanted to try that game ready fit but it was too wide and I didn’t want to drive all the way back to the store for just a bake lol. The regular width felt SO wide so I hoped baking would tighten it up, have the boot form to my foot more… and it did but it wasn’t enough 😭 after a month of skating I decided to get the tapered fit, which I did get to try the game ready fit in! I wouldn’t say it feel broken in.. just that the eyelets seem closer to your ankle, like a stock ankle wrap. It felt good on the ice but I immediately thought “I want these baked, a few spots feel weird.” Ever since I baked my MX3s in 2019 I’ve been skeptical about baking.. personally I think the boot softens and cures to the shape of your foot but it may or may not retain the stiffness it had before the baking process. Because of this, I didn’t bake my skates for years until this FT6 pro. It’s definitely a good idea to do so, especially for boots with a higher level of stiffness. I’m curious how things turned out. Please, share an update 😊

I went from a size 10,5 in AS3 Pro (E, i.e. wide) to 10,0 in FT6 Pro (regular) and agree that the FT6 Pro is quite a snug boot. Don't forget that after a couple of weeks worth of breaking in the skate, the liner is expected to reduce a bit in size and thus provide a bit extra volume, especially in the width, if that's your concern. I used the AS3 Pro skates on average about 5 hours a week, each week, for about 3½ years and if it wasn't for the bottom of the carbon above the heel section of the holder getting soft, I would still have used them today - and if a replacement pair of AS3 Pro were available, I'd opt for that .. f.. amazing skates. The FT6 Pro are heavier, but also more comfortable. I attribute part of the extra weight to the STEP blades, which to me is a significant challenge to adapt to, at least with the standard curve from the factory. I'll need to get another profile on the STEPs as there's too much of a difference from the old black steel XSI blades. I'll also mention that most carbon skates require significant time to break in, even though they're "game ready" from the factory like the FT6 Pros. I'll need to have a spot on the inside of the right boot punched a bit, which was somewhat expected, and I have to be honest that I'm looking forward to the skates being completely broken in a couple of months down the road, but I'm expecting to use them for 3½ years just like the AS3 Pros and as such, it should be well worth the effort.

@@Chrissy1011 Hi Crissy. Thanks for the response. Sorry for my late reply. So I ended up baking the 7.5W and it definitely widened a bit more and felt good overall. However, the only thing I noticed (compared to my Ribcor 100k's in 8W) is that I am not getting as much upper ankle wrap from the boot. I think it is because the boot is a half size smaller so it has slightly less depth. So it makes me wonder if maybe I should just go back up to an 8 but in regular. You mentioned that when you got your skates they felt too wide so baking helped tighten them? Was this noticeable? The only reason I ask is because when I tried on the 8R, it felt good but there was slight side to side wobble, very slight. So it makes me wonder if I bake them and break them in more that it will wrap more around my foot and then "tighten up", and then having that bit of extra depth in the boot as well at the upper ankle area. Lastly, I know you've been testing the Hyperlite 2's as well. Which skate did you end up with in the end? Thanks! Happy Holidays!

Yay👏👏 congratulations, hope you love them!!

Hi! Thanks for your comment😊 OMG, yes. I thought of that as well, you are correct. I felt a boost in confidence while skating in the ft6 pro. Just well protected and grounded👏 I don’t mind at all! Lately I’ve been getting music from RUclips. Free soundtracks. Something chill. I try to choose something the viewers will hopefully enjoy but something I can bop to while editing lol

Hey! So strangle the Mach fits me better/I like the way it fits my foot more than a vapor skate. It’s very comfortable. The eyelets shouldn’t rub like the Hyperflex eyelets. It has a better wrap than the Hyp2rlite.

so overall you would prefer the mach over the hyperlite? thanks

Hi! So the step steel had great bite at 7/16, which is what I usually get. The Fly-Ti would have needed a 3/8 to get the same bite. I felt faster in FT6 Pro because I was able to dig in and push whereas I was slipping on the same cut in the hyp2rlites. On the other hand, the Hyp2 has a more forward pitch and it’s lighter so others may feel faster in that over the FT6 Pro. To directly answer your question I’m going to have to say Hyp2rlite because I always felt the weight of the Ft6 Pro. 👍😊
