Its nice to see that Bauer finally adopted 1990's roller blade technology
exactly what they feel like, 90's rollerblades
"Oh look, the TRS Lightnings are back" - me

Exactly what I thought when I saw them at first :).
ya, my son started eishockey...and i dont get this oldschool skates. wtf are those?!
The skate of the future looks remarkably like the roller blades of the ‘90s.
Looks like a reinvented Bauer Turbo i had as a kid...
Old is the new New.

@@james82182 That's the way with LPs and records today too.
Pretty cool
Pretty cool, looks like they took the technology available for ski boots and transferred it to skates. Had pretty much the same heating and molding process done to my ski boots when I first bought them

It’s weird to walk in ski boots. They’re completely rigid and don’t flex. Now compare that to skates that “feel like wearing a pair of tennis shoes. The racket binding straps aren’t the highlight here lol.
The hinge goes back a long way. I'm 55, I used Lange skates in pee wee in the 70s. Someone else mentioned Microns, I also used them back in minor hockey. All molded skates with liners. They were pretty good as I recall. I've been using "normal" skates for many years now. Interesting to see the updated version with, as someone mentioned, a roller blade style way of securing them on your feet.
These remind me , as far as their appearance, of my late 1970s microns which I wore for over twenty years and kept hanging on the wall for another twenty. Cold stuff .
Like the video. Skates have come so far since the days of tube skates being the new big thing. We used to get "baked" at the skate shop in the '80s, but it was a totally different thing. Subscribed!
I haven't purchased ice hockey skates in many years. But my favorite were CCM that had Reebok air pumps built into the skate tongue and ankles. I didn't have to worry about tightening my skate laces too tight. With the Reebok pump, it made it quick /easy to tighten the skates during games (wish I had them years ago when I was a kid, when my skates got loose and I didn't time to tighten properly on the bench, it had a impact on my skating / playing ability.
The 652s
i just typed about em. Something about how the tounge felt when lacing em up . Felt so good with the extra tightness at top or bottom . Loved that skate and then went back to graf lol
I had those with the little Instapump doohickey you put a CO2 cartridge in. Loved those damn skates and ended up converting them to roller. Wore them for YEARS.
My favourite part was this is not scripted, followed by thank my friends at Bauer 😂

I wore a pair of Lange skates in college when they first came out in 1974, they had the same type of hinge as these Bauer. Everyone thought I was crazy but they were the comfortable pair of skates you could get at that time and on top of that they gave you great protection.
reminds me of my old pair of microns I used to have!
Back to the Future!
1985 Microns! 🤣

I would imagine it will help with lowering the stress on the ankles and knees….maybe even the hips in the long run? It’s time that the gear catch up to help with goalies being able to stay in the game longer as they age. Good vid KVG, interesting to see how they hold up through the years/s.

My Bauer Custom Form Fit 3000 skates also had a heat molding process and that was 30 years ago.
I see the 90's are coming back strong. Had a pair of K2's with the buckle and all it takes is one hit to that buckle! Let me know when Bauer brings back the classic Supreme 3000's with the leather boot and i'll buy a pair.
Looks like just pure gold to kvg mat black
roller blade boot with blades ... I still have my old school CCM 652's with the reebok pump system on the tounge and loved em and then I went back to graf and eventually the first ever vapor 10 skate and been a bauer vapor skater for yrs now

During the cooling/icing process I would stand for those eleven minutes, and maybe even walk around. Your feet change shape as soon as you stand, flattening your arch, widening your foot print etc. When I heat form new snowboard boots I’ll slip on the same sox I ride with, lace/clamp them up to my riding tightness and walk/stand around in them for 10-15 minutes
When baking in general it’s recommended you sit upright and still
@@GlookieKilla I would be curious to try both methods and then spend the day riding and see which felt better.
You will ruin the skates, don't wanna mess with them while hot.
We do the same for ski boots. Same technology and idea. Even put your toes on a 2x4 but that’s not needed for hockey
what? it sounds like you've only "played" hockey by browsing reddit hockey threads about playing hockey lmao
Love mine. I do get minor discomfort in my low arches but I think that’s just my feet. I also have superfeet comfort in mine and Tydan SAM profiled steel. I have the top buckle as tight as possible and the bottom buckle micro adjustment all the way tight and then on first notch.
Most people testing Konekts online complain about pain in the feet. Common problem with ski boots.

....that boot design has been around for awhile, but I can't believe it took so long to take it to the ice. Pretty cool, I like them ...
Watching how your pads get kinda pushed towards the ice when flexing, it makes me think that ideally they'd probably develop a new boot design on the pad to compliment the konekt.
Warrior leg pads have the flattest boot channel. I doubt he will switch though.
Hey KVG…love the channel, love the insights.
Fun question, hopefully with no judgement. I am a beer league goalie, started in my 30’s and love it. I’ve never used anything but entry level goal skates…started with Bauer Supreme One60…switched up to S27’s…finally GSX’s. I’m finally deciding to put some money on my feet. I’m not prepared to go full custom, but if you had the choice between a pair of Ultrasonics at a good price Bauer Pro or a pair of Konekt skates at full pop…what are you taking and why?
love ur vids
They had Lange skates 40 years ago . They were molded plastic with a liner in them . I still have a pair .

I didn't think anyone would remember them, I am a old timer and remember Lange. They didn't take off at first, but their was a kid who moved to our town, and he had molded skates. He was an incredible skater/player, so it drew interest.

Me too. I had a pair of plastic molded skates with removable liners and a hinged heel joint. Theres really nothing new here, history just repeats itself lol
I love your videos
My skates are like 20 years old. I would to try these babies. So cool
I wished that they existed in my time (pre 2015). It was a huge pain with those darn laces. Same thing with those current almost strapless leg pads! I remember that it was almost "obligatory" in 90's for a leg pad to having 11 straps! Some teammates even got furious at me when I didn't used those 2 first upper straps, because I saw Hasek doing it. None pro goalies today had survived with those terrible equipments of 90's, wooden goalie sticks weighted like 10x more than composite goalie sticks!
i remember when i got my first brand new set of Brown Elites, i ended up just using the bottom 2 straps lol. my goalie days are long gone. 2 hip replacements . I got to say I am so jealous of the leg pads these days. paper thin and designed to the new style of goaltending which would have suited my style back in the day perfectly.
These look pretty good. I still use my Lange Goalers from 1978,and these would be a good upgrade,except for maybe the steel of the blades. The steel on the Lange Goalers is premium stuff,and my skate sharpening guys always loved to work on them.
I also have the Lange, and thought these look like the Lange, even with the footbed insert.

Worked in a sporting goods shop in the 80’s. I watched Bauer do this with a skate to a high school hockey player in 1986. They custom molded the skates to his foot. Not new, just redone.
Took this long for someone to put a ice chassis on a rollerblade boot lol
Ski boot
As they say, sometimes there's a reason things haven't been done.
Nah not a ski boot, definitely more of a rollerblade boot. It's all for the greater good of ice hockey though I guess, everyone will be doing them soon enough and then the technology of having a cuff will just get better and better 👍👍👍

I always take my laces out of the top two loops to get the ankle mobility while still having tight skates. these look so nice, probably will be my next pair
your skates are engineered for maximum energy transfer from your feet to the ice. Use all your eyelets they are there for a reason. when players dont lace their skates correctly they are losing agility speed and safety.
Lol you trying to break your ankles?

I bought probably the one of the first pair of Lang hockey skates that were all plastic while everybody else had super tack hockey skates I found a pair on eBay for $265 what a great looking pair of skates
I just bought a pair and its insane how it helps level up my game.

Ski boots do hinge like that in the back. They also mold them just like that. To me it looks like they put a skate on the bottom of ski boots.

Lot of comments here about 1990s roller hockey skates. I remember back in the early 90s when the CCM Kevlar Taks actually came out....at the time those things were so badass. This kind of reminds me of that but they also look like Mission skates a little bit to me.
Those were the days man, too bad roller hockey is pretty much dead here on the East Coast.
Best skates I ever had were Lange with the hard boot and soft inner boot my dad bought me in 1974 or 75 and they lasted for decades.
Amen. Ist generation Langes were great. Used them through the 70's until they disappeared (ripped off) at rink. It will be interesting to see what the forward/defenseman version will be like if they continue with the development/design process.
So it's been almost a year, how do you still feel a bout them? Holding up good? Buckle issues? What sz skate were you using and now what sz in these are you wearing? I'm a 7.5 normally.
“are there any beers in the… connect… fridge? no? oh it’s cool…” had me cracking up
Old Bauer turbos coming back I see. Full circle
I picked up a pair. Sure I am a beer league plugger that plays for fun but i gotta say, when the league needs help to fill in spots on a night where ppl cant make the game, playing three in a row, its amazing to click, click. out of the skates, fresh socks, click, click and ready to rock again. worth every peny to stay fresh and dry LOL
lol cf logo under that thicc ice. I recognize that rink.
I love not needing waxed laces, any word on these skates for d-men or forwards?
They brought the lange skates back from the 70’s😂
So true!!

Just a thought. Since the foot changes shape when you are standing up and since ice hockey is not played while seated, shouldn’t the process have been done while standing?
Is the baking a night & day difference? I tried a pair of these on at the store a while back and they were uncomfortable as hell. Do you put superfeet in them as well?
You absolutely need to bake them. The volume of the skate is much smaller on purpose, the molding process will make the liner conform to your feet 1:1. The liner become like a marshmallow out of the oven. The shell is also extremely soft out of the oven.

They need to have binding extensions for wide ankles. We tried them on but the binding couldn't even connect around the ankles. Just like skiing boots, there should be binding extensions.
The metal toothy section that is on that strap can removed by two screws and adjusted wider or narrower. See 9:54 on this video th-cam.com/video/FKAAx1jPtM8/w-d-xo.html

Wonder how long my pads will.last with the rigid buckles?
Use to wear Langs, same concept
YES
KVG....are these actually worth it? I'm in need of new skates, but cannot find the bauers I actually want(Ultrasonics), in my size...
Been a goalie for years and I am pretty sure when I say, those player blades will not hold up to puck shots. I get the molded boot. It's like the white goal skate boot, but I can't see the blade holing up.
How does the quality feel? Having a single point that clips across the foot held with a small metal pin seems like a fail point. How do they hold up over the course of a season?

I've been looking for non-shoestring ice skates ⛸️ and hocky skates for decades. Where do I buy a pair of size 13?
ive been wearing these my whole life
Oh and now they need to come out with 3 different blade replacement profiles.
1-round toes. gets rid of the point and lets you go down quicker. with a center 10 foot profile
2. 1-round toes. gets rid of the point and lets you go down quicker. with a rear lean profile.
3-round toes. gets rid of the point and lets you go down quicker. with a forward lean profile
you guys wont believe the difference
once you do it you will never go back tot
Current tech for the 80’s Orbit/Micron hockey boots. Lol.

My Powerslide Evos are like this too. I mean, they're comfy, but I just hate the look of buckles, and they rattle ( but I guess that's the surfaces I skate on )
I was a Tacks fan, back in the 70s when the blade was a solid piece of steel, and remember those Langs which were the first ski boot type. At $900, I don't trust those Chinese made clips to last, and is they are super light, how good is the arch protection?
The clips have already started breaking for people. Heard a few goalies have swapped out in the insoles because they weren't comfortable. Sorry, but if you're dropping $900 on skates few things should break and nothing should have to be swapped out due to comfort.

Do goalie skates get profiled?
@@Islanders83 absolutely. Even after all the years I've been sharpening skates the results and differences between "out of the box" profiles or the lack off and one for the person proper profiled goalie skate is astounding.
The latest and hottest is the ellipse goalie. But Goalie Sam and even Zuperior are very popular amongst Swedish goalies.

Reminds me of the Microns that Mark "Harpo" Hardy used to wear..
So are these types of skates only for goalies, or for outfield players as well?
The hot molding technique has been used on in line skates for years. For athletes, a complete mold of the foot is made, and the boot is constructed per foot as we know our feet are not exactly the same.
I used to do in line marathons, and I have a pair of those molded to my feet skates. I don't think the ice skates require that technique. The lacing is still best for comfort. I maybe wrong, we will see as the time goes by.

U said they were light but they weight more than normal skates, yes there great i have a pair but they hurt like hell the first 2-3 ice times but after that they are really comfortable. For a real review thats not paid off they are great but are noticeably heavier.
It's about f#$king time!!! I'm a Canadian man in my 50s. I've been on skates 4 times in my life and it's all because skates are hands down the most uncomfortable things ever. These skates look like I may want to rethink things... thanks
