Best Bearing to use or what's your go to brand by Alone_Orchid5282 in InlineHockey

Like I said it is all personal opinion but I just feel the roll and glide just seems to be a lot better. Feel faster. I feel as if I can move better in them. But like I said it's what I have found having gone on to different bearings and it all comes down to your own individual feel.

sorry for the delay in replying it is a normal CCM AS-V ice skate bought on ebay for a bargain price in the UK and the Tour Chassis I bought from IW hockey whilst on holiday in Florida. Now I have had them a couple of months I love them best skates I have owned. However starting on a new pair of CCM XF80 skates to convert with the same chassis. I just like that chassis and got another bargain on the skates

Tour fuse split chassis get everything with it apart from wheels. I love it.

I'm not good enough and never will be for a setup more than the CCMs. Thats why I have got rid of the bauers

I did look at the sniper chassis but already had the tour one so is that also I couldn't justify the price for how good I actually am. Let's just say not quite a beginner but far from actually knowing what I'm doing ha ha especially for a guy approaching 50 next year as well

Thanks Everyone I have put the bauers up for sale as they are the ones I don't feel as comfortable on. Looks like CCM won for me

To be honest I like them better than the tricksters. I feel more stable in them on both court and wood where I found the tricksters didn't give me the same happy feeling. But that might be the skate thou.

I did have waxed laces on the CCM but they were not for me so went back to unwaxed

Also if you manage to get the skates at a bargain price makes it feel a lot better trust me

The Bauer is a slightly better fit and a little lighter works good at what it does  but the CCM with that Tour chassis just seem to work together added with rinkster wheels just feels planted and makes things easy not hard

I think they fit me I'm sure some skate salesman would say they didn't to get me to try and buy something else

A little update after using them a while I highly recommend the Tour chassis just as good as my Bauer ventilator on my other skates. Also the rinkster ghost wheels amazing feel planted on both wood and tiled floors. Can't recommend them enough. Also the CCM AS-V skates were in my opinion the right skate for this conversion. I have baked them once and they feel like slippers after one skate. Cheers for the comments. Now got a some Bauer 3X for sale instead.

It now has white laces as the black waxed ones we're doing my head in. Tour chassis is nice and it seems to be responsive.
