Awesome review guys! Lots of time and effort obviously went into making it! Woukd love to see more videos like this. Also. Would be great to see on your website for the source exclusive skates (and other gear), what the base starting skate is and a list of upgrades added. Would make figuring out what to buy so much easier :). I see it on a few models like this. But not all.

hockey socks would probably help give you much more feel and actually a little more room in the skate since cotton grabs the liner and expands inside the skate

If he would have tested the True skates with proper sizing, I guarantee, that both models would be in the Top3. I've been playing for almost 4 decades and have worn about 35-40 pairs of all(!) brands. Concerning comfort and performance, nothing beats a True skate, closely followed by Grafs.

I heard that True skates have a more aggressive forward lean to them, I have been tempted but when I call around to ask shops how to change the lean, I get different answers from all of them everywhere from profiling to you need to change the holders to it's the boot it's self have you experienced the lean forward and have you corrected it?

i also heard from friends that their mid tier models are very awesome but they needs to be baked to be a true confort fit. They also over the cheapest thermoformable models. that is quite nice.

For anyone wondering, the X4's are the lightest skate other than the super flimsy sub $150 models, so with them you save a good bit of weight while keeping elite levels of protection and stiffness. 810 grams in a size men's 8. That's like 120 grams lighter than top spec $900-$1200 skates that in my opinion are entirely too heavy, like having your feet stuck in mud.

I think such a leaderboard would be only valid if you at least have a sample of 5 persons trying them. One sample, one foot shape makes the tests non conclusive.

Like the way bauers look, but their skate are always IMPOSSIBLY narrow! I do not understand how anyone could fit into bauers. Even fit 3 was crushing my foot because it was so narrow. You all must have pencils for feet. Why are hockey skates always so narrow? I never have this problem buying shoes, but finding off the shelf skates with enough width has been next to impossible. So much pain.

Guys, now I need access to the chart you created that shows your breakdown. Also, would be nice to know the guy's foot size and maybe any other parameters. Would be even one notch better if you could include which skates come with trigger release chassis, or black steel. Those are huge price bumps that I may want.

Does this tell you anything? Any skate over $100.00 has flow fit, and needs to be heated up. What do you learn except what fits this reviewer's foot for walking around? If feeling comfortable when you pull it on in the store was what mattered skates would look like Ughs. But you wouldn't be able to skate on them. A salesman told me years ago why low to mid range roller blades look so different from hockey skates. He said novice skaters want comfort above all, so those skates are made to be comfortable to stand in from day 1. And then you pay for that day one as long as you own the skates, because it's impossible to skate properly in them.
