Hockey Giant. Got my xxx's for something like... 450ish maybe lower? Plus they are the nicest skates on the market for sure. <p>-TWM22</p><i></i>

My favorite goalie skates are Grafs, but I have never used the new Vapor 30's, so I don't know. <p></p><i></i>

A goalie friend of mine said and I quote, "The XXX's for goalies are f***ed up!" So they are supposably bad, according to him when you go down in the butterfly, the blade of the skate is too long and it screws everything up and ultimately uncomfortable. Just what he said, not a goalie so I don't know. <p>-TWM22</p><i></i>

Sweet skates, but why pay so much when you can get basically the same skate with the XXX's. If you have the money I guess that's that, but if you don't then just go with the XXX's, I felt little difference. <p>-TWM22</p><i></i>

the one90's happen to just be a little bit lighter then the XXX's. the 90's will go for around 500 - 550 no tax. The XXX's you can get for 400 in somerset wisconson at tredmill sports - just 10 minutes from stillwater <p></p><i></i>
