# Bauer Vapor 2X Pro Hockey Skates


### Product Description: 


The Bauer Vapor 2X Pro hockey skates are designed for elite players who prioritize performance and top-of-the-line features. Known for their lightweight build and focus on agility, these skates are ideal for players who value quickness and responsiveness on the ice. The 2X Pro incorporates Bauer's DYNAFLEX system, which includes an asymmetrical toe cap for a low-volume fit and enhanced mobility. Additionally, the skates boast features like a carbon composite quarter package for stiffness and energy transfer, a memory foam liner for comfort, and a vented outsole for breathability. As part of Bauer's Vapor line, the 2X Pro represents the brand's continued commitment to innovation and responsiveness in the fast-paced world of hockey.


### Perfect skates for:

### Key features include:

- Enhanced fit with the low-profile design.

- Ultimate performance with the DYNAFLEX System.

### Top competitors comparison: the [CCM Ribcor 80K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/ribcor-80k/l12074) and the [True Pro Custom](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/pro-custom-4/l10558)

The CCM Ribcor 80K skates offer a similar level of performance and customization. They feature a lightweight, carbon composite boot for maximum responsiveness and a customizable fit with heat moldable technology. The Ribcor 80K skates also utilize the SpeedBlade XS holder system for quick blade changes. On the other hand, the True Pro Custom Hockey Skates are known for their customizability, as the name suggests. They offer a fully customizable fit and are handcrafted to the player's exact specifications. The True Pro Custom skates also feature a lightweight construction and premium materials for optimal performance. 


### Progression:

Key improvements in the 2X Pro over the 1X Pro:




* **Weight:** The 2X Pro is lighter than the 1X Pro due to advancements in materials and construction.
* **Performance:** The 2X Pro features improvements in energy transfer, edge control, and overall responsiveness compared to the 1X Pro.

 
It's important to note that while the 2X Pro is generally considered an upgrade over the 1X Pro, the specific choice between the two models will depend on individual player preferences, budget, and skating style.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* These skates are awesome. The DynaFlex system with the asymmetrical toe cap provides a super close, locked-in fit. The boot is stiff and responsive, perfect for powerful skating.
* The Lock Fit Pro liner is the most comfortable liner I've ever experienced in a skate. It feels like a custom mold of my foot, and there were no major break-in issues.
* The holder provides a solid platform for the blade, and the steel offers some of the best edge control I've ever had. Turns feel effortless.

CONS:



* These skates are definitely on the expensive side.
* With their high-performance focus, these skates are very stiff.  While that's great for powerful strides, it might be too much for beginner players. A stiffer boot can be harder to control and maneuver.
* I had a hard time finding these skates in my size.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79))

One of the things that makes the 2X Pro great is how light it feels. It's an extremely lightweight boot that is also really durable. It's a predecessor to what you see in the HyperLite these days. Very durable but also very light. So the 2X Pro is perfect for agility, cutting back and forth across the ice. And, it still has good power. At the professional level, some NHL players use the 2X Pro and have no issues. It’s a skate that will last you. Mine are still fine to play in even after years. It's a skate built to last.

### Top competitors comparison: the [Supreme 2S Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/supreme-2s-pro/l7798) and the [CCM JetSpeed FT2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft2-2/l11100)

The Bauer Supreme 2S Pro skates offer a comparable level of customization as the True Pro Custom skates, with a focus on power and stability. They feature a lightweight, anatomically fitting design for maximum power transfer and a customizable fit with their patented Flex Edge technology. The Supreme 2S Pro skates also utilize the Tuuk Lightspeed Edge holder for quick blade changes. In comparison, the CCM JetSpeed FT2 skates provide a customizable fit with a one-piece boot design for improved responsiveness and control. They feature an ultra-lightweight construction and a Rocketframe composite material for enhanced stiffness and agility. The JetSpeed FT2 skates also feature the Speedblade Xchange system for easy and quick blade changes.


### Progression:

True Hockey, a relatively younger brand compared to established giants like Bauer, has offered a more streamlined approach to its skate lineup, particularly with its flagship True Pro Custom skate. This translates to fewer model variations and a clearer focus on refinement over major overhauls. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* These skates are like an extension of my feet. The custom-fitting process means almost no break-in period. The comfort level is incredible, and I can skate for hours without any pain or discomfort.
* The boot is super responsive and allows for maximum energy transfer in my strides.  The heat-moldable option lets you customize the flex profile to your liking, which is a game-changer.
* The skates feel incredibly lightweight, which helps with agility and maneuverability.  Despite the lightweight build, the materials seem very durable. I've been using them for a season now, and they're still holding up great.

CONS:



* These skates are definitely an investment. The custom fitting process adds to the cost, which might not be feasible for everyone.
* The custom fitting process takes time, and there can be a waitlist to get your skates made.  If you need skates right away, this might not be the best option.
* While the custom fitting is great in theory, it might not be perfect for everyone.  Some users with very complex foot shapes might still experience some fit issues.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79))

The True Pro Custom are the skates I currently use. They're fantastic. The durability on these is just otherworldly. I've used my Pro Customs for over two years, and they still hold up great. In being custom, a lot of the holders (what keeps the steel in) can be swapped out. They will feature the quick-release Bauer version, or you'll see these skates with the quick-release CCM version. When you're looking for these skates, you can pretty much find whatever you desire.

### Top competitors comparison: the [CCM Jetspeed FT4](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft4-7/l174346) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956)

The Jetspeed FT4 Pro skates offer a lightweight, one-piece Rocketframe composite boot and the SpeedBlade XS holder system for quick blade changes. The True TF9 skates provide a customizable fit with heat moldable technology, and feature a carbon fiber-built boot for responsiveness. Both alternatives offer competitive features in terms of performance and technology, allowing players to choose based on their preferences for fit, customization options, and design.


### Progression:

The [Bauer Supreme 2S Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/supreme-2s-pro/l7798) hockey skate was released in 2018 as the successor to the Bauer Supreme 1S skate. While the overall design remained similar, the 2S Pro introduced several improvements:



* Lock-Fit Pro liner 
* Custom lacing system
* Lighter memory foam ankle pads
* Upgraded to the Tuuk LS5 carbon-coated stainless steel runner


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS: 




* These skates are amazing! The boot is super stiff and supportive, which gives me a ton of power in my strides. My skating feels much faster and more efficient.
* The Lock Fit Pro liner is incredibly comfortable and provides a great heel lock. The thermoformable features allow for a truly custom fit, which makes a huge difference for my skating. No more worrying about blisters or pressure points.
* The LS5 steel blades are a game-changer. They offer some of the best edge control I've ever experienced. Turns feel effortless and I can really dig into the ice for powerful pushes.

CONS:



* The break-in period for these skates was brutal. It took a good few weeks before they started to feel comfortable. Be prepared to put in some extra ice time if you get these.
* These skates are definitely on the expensive side. While they perform great, the price might not be realistic for everyone.
* I had a hard time finding these skates in my size. It seems like they sell out quickly and aren't always readily available. 


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The 2S Pro is a higher-end skate built for professional or competitive play. It has a lot of extra comfort and will be lighter with all the space-age technology materials. The 2S Pro has excellent power and control, so you can repeatedly explode your speed. This skate does have a quick-release mechanism to switch out your blades easily. The Supreme line has a more anatomical kind of snug fit. If you want a skate with all the bells and whistles, the 2S Pro is for you.
