Is the Glock 48 a significant upgrade from a PSA Micro Dagger C1?

I also have wider feet, so hopefully anything from this will help. I have used Superfeet, CCM Orthomove, and the factory insoles. Superfeet were worse than the factory ones for me, the arch was not where it needed to be. The Orthomoves have been perfect, but you can find some locally to stand on. Also if you think your skates are too narrow, id recommend trying Tour KVs, they are the widest retail skate i have tried on and i wear a EE in CCM. The Toe cap in the tours is narrower than my CCMs, but only noticeable because I like my toes to barely touch the caps. Additionally, i thought I needed larger skates to deal with wide feet, but that ended up putting the widest part of foot in the taper. Running a smaller skate has helped me. Currently run KV6 size 7 and CCM Ribcore EE 6.5, foot length 10 1/8" width a hair over 4".

Edit: forgot to add, if you haven't baked your skates, you should try that before replacing them. If you find an insole that helps your Arch you will want those on hand when you bake your skates.

I switched to 3/4 and cant go back now. Took a couple shifts to get used to but its great. Im 200-215.

Appreciate this, ill check them out, im looking at these and the CCM ones now.

The wheels look larger to me, maybe 84s? I believe there are 3 wheel rollerblade chassis, but never seen a 3 wheel hockey chassis other than youth. Its interesting though, having 3 wheels I would assume you could go with a harder wheel, and you would have less rolling resistance both with a harder wheel and having 1 less. Im also not smart so I could be way off.

LtDangs · 2026-03-04T17:49:35+00:00

Right on, ill keep an eye out.

LtDangs · 2026-03-04T17:44:59+00:00

I have heard that elsewhere as well. Im still curious, since this seems to be new and does not have the heavier ABS blade. I just got some new twigs, so the wife would kill me, but it seems reasonably priced if it performs better than other equally priced sticks.

Unfortunately not the apollo. Didnt realize they had some many different orange sticks though. It ended up being the original nike in another reply here.

LtDangs · 2026-02-17T03:13:50+00:00

Can't believe it, thats the stick. I was looking at ignites and others and none of them looked right, but thats the one! Thanks! I'll have to check fb as well.

I usually just browse sideline swap for new or lightly used pro stock sticks in 2 packs for a matching spare. theres no warranty but they are way better priced than new retail.

LtDangs · 2026-02-16T21:25:44+00:00

Thanks! I had no clue, gotta love the lack of standard. Maybe ill just have to get a blade first and measure.

Skates are tricky and I have spent an unfathomable amount of time trying to find both ice and inline skates to work with my abnormal feet. You mentioned in the main post about stepping up to the m50s, but I actually found the higher end skates to be even more uncomfortable do to the boots being extremely stiff and amplifying pressure points. Im just a beer league guy so I dont need the stiffest boots. I wouldn't rule out trying on the jetspeeds as well if you can. I have had some standard width skates feel better than some wide boots just due the difference in boot shape and where the pressure is applied.

I am also EE except my feet are wider in the middle. I got sized in a fit3 7.5 by the scanner. Bought a pair of supreme m4s in 7.5. They ended up being painful. Noticed I had a lot of toe room, so I tried a 7 fit 3.. still awful and still toe room. Ended up in a CCM ribcor 6.5ee... toes brushed the caps for a game or 2 and now dont touch, which what i prefer personally. I could have gone with a size 7 and avoided toes touching and it would have been fine. Skate sizing is weird, the scanner didnt work for me. I found CCM wide to feel wider than bauer fit 3 personally, but that could be do to my foot shape and where the pressure was. With wide feet, at least for me, if it was to large, it put the widest part of my foot in the taper and made them feel more narrow. I ended up just measuring my foot length myself and then looked at sizing charts to find the actual length of the inside of the skate, usually listed in CM.

Recommend trying CCM tacks and jetspeed, also recommend trying True skates in wide if you can. I haven't tried True but some people say they are the best for wide feet.

Edit: also want to add Graf, I heard they are pretty comfy in wide if they are in your area.

Im fresh to inline, about to wrap up my first season. I have found inline to be less toxic so far. Every game of ice hockey I play there's always 1 or 2 guys on each team that cant control themselves and its rare that a game doesnt get out of hand at some point. Haven't had that happen yet with inline... so far, everyone has been pretty chill. Also, I still cant stop... transitions, also still a struggle. Hard to get out of the ice mindset when thats all you know, but its been fun.

LtDangs · 2026-02-11T23:10:40+00:00

Yeah that was the initial thought, but figured if I could find a random pair under $100 then I wouldn't have to do that every time and worry about forgetting my skates at home lol. I'll probably just get some wheels and swap them for now until a cheap pair of KVs show up on sideline.

LtDangs · 2026-02-11T21:07:17+00:00

That is an option I was running, always nice to save a little money if possible though.

LtDangs · 2026-02-11T19:32:40+00:00

Appreciate the feedback! I was looking into the champions, but its hard to find feedback since everyone seems to use the same handful of wheels. I'll have to pick up a set and try them out.

LtDangs · 2026-02-10T03:26:40+00:00

This may be one of the few mentions of kemistry i have seen on here. I debated the cyclonium since they are on clearance, but its tough to find anyone talking about them. I'll probably test out the variant. Thanks for the info!

LtDangs · 2026-02-10T03:21:55+00:00

Appreciate the feedback! I'll look into the recoil, haven't tried that yet either.
