Re: Oven Baking Skates?

Anyways I went to Sportschek and bought CCM Vector 6.0 Skates and got them heated in the oven and did the stuff, They feel nice.

Re: Oven Baking Skates?

good buy

Yes, only some skate can be heated properly. And when they're heated, skates lose their rigidity, making them a bit less effective.

However, if you don't play at a high level, it's a good thing to heat them, confort-wise.

Re: Oven Baking Skates?

Why not just take it to a hockey store and have them do it right?

Re: Oven Baking Skates?

Because the only hockey store I know around me trys to rip me off, He was going to sell me CCM Vector 4.0 Skates for $200 and heat them.

Instead I bought CCM Vector 6.0, Got them heated and sharpened all at Sportschek for only $180 or so.

Re: Oven Baking Skates?

so you baked them already?! Isn't it a bit too late to worry if it is ok to bake them?
