They're really built for different players and skating strides. If you're more of a north-to-south skater that likes to beat defensmen with pure speed, the Tacks is going to be a better skate for you. For the east-to-west skater who likes to beat d-men with a quick move, the JetSpeed is a better fit. Chase at IW Hockey
What are the differences between these and the XF Pros?
Obvious question, but other than the fit, would these be better overall than the regulsr FT4s? Asking because they are on sale.

Nice review, but the tongues on your video sample skate are not the same tongues on the production skates it seems.
Thanks for the head's up! We're in the process of having those skates reshot as we speak!
