Someone in another thread mentioned second-hand. Anyone ever go that route? It is kind of distasteful, thinking of someone else's dirty dogs in there, but they must go through some sort of restoration/de-stinkifying process. It'd be nice to get high-end skates for cheap. I've got small feet so if some teenager outgrew his size 9s after 2 months, I'd be in great shape.

yeah for rec hockey, i would definitly suggest second hand. You can get a good pair of second hand skates to fit you properly for a better price. Skates depreciate alot! But if our just using them for rec or shinny hockey someone at TUXEDO SPORTS will be able 2 do a great job finding a skate that fits and feels the best for you and at a much better cost.
As jake was saying abuot Synergys, not worth it pal. trust me ive used them since i was 15 when they first came out and were going for a $350 a peice! If my team didnt supply them for me theres no way i would EVER spend money on them. They are the best sticks on the market when there new, but they simply just dont last long enough. I would suggest a Graphite shaft preferbly the z bubble or Ultra Lite from Easton and a carbon blade, the carbob blades are the next best thing 2 the actual One peice blade and they last much longer. Cant go wrong the that set up
