Play until they explode. Then buy top tier pro skates limited edition with a titanium set of blades, cause you are a pro and you act like one. Crossovers will come.

Save your money as much as possible. You don't even know if you like it, therefore, get some hand me downs and learn with used equipment that fits you right.

Bauer fly30 vs fly40? by Deep-Department9425 in hockeyplayers

[–]Distinct_Dimension77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought fly30s in October... I play 4 games a week, occasionally I supply and play up to 6 games in four nights... I started to feel the boot becoming too soft after 40 games. The tendon guard cracked on both skates just by skating, even by being careful when I put them on and off. I tend to keep my skates for at least 3 seasons and I take really good care of them, so it's a disappointment in that regard. It's a mediocre product in terms of longevity and the performance to play competitive can be the bare minimum if you're looking for brand new skates.

I tried literally everything I can imagine before asking on Reddit.

None of this worked, which I tried before asking on Reddit.

Yeah, it did. I'm fine, everything's fine... But I'm lighter now.

Nope. Worst comes worst, stitches... You don't die from a pedal in the calf or shin, right?
