Wonder if he was an Outkast fan.

Side note - I know maybe 2 songs by Outkast but they had Big Boi do the halftime show at the Ravens-Bengals I went to last year. He was super entertaining. He did a cover of Spanish Bombs*.

*Narrator - he did not do a cover of Spanish Bombs

It is finally time to let my old Nike Bauer Vapor XVIs go. What do you guys wear?

My local shop has 100 bucks off CCM Tacks 580s. I like the look of the Jetspeeds as well. I tried a pair of Bauer Supreme 150s but they felt too flimsy to me. My current Bauers lasted me 10 years. I assume whatever the current model equivalent is will feel roughly the same, just probably a lot lighter.

I have wide feet, so currently Bauer Nexus.
Feet still hurt like a somebitch.

Bauer has just changed their sizing system, and I tried on a pair of Bauer Hyperlite 2 a couple of weeks ago.
It was the first time I can remember having on skates that were actually comfortable.
Problem... They are $1,100 before you put the blades on.

So now I am scouring the stores to find anything cheaper in my size with a fit 3.
No luck so far, hoping to find a set of Bauer M4 in my size at some point. $500 for complete skates is a bit more reasonable.

My feet are so fucked up, I wouldn't dare buying a pair online though. Need to try them in person.

remember those ones you bought from me? how were those? did they last long after we got the blade replaced? I cant remember if we did replace them?

Yeah, def not going to buy online for a few reasons. I need to know I get good achilles support so I have to try on. Plus my local shop will bake them for free if you buy from them. Never done that before, but hear it really helps.

Matty also knows a guy that sells used tires...

Narrator: Do not buy used tires from Matty's guy.
