# Bauer Vapor 3X Hockey Skates


### Product Description: 


The Bauer Vapor 3X hockey skates are designed for performance-oriented players who skate multiple times a week and seek a balance of comfort, performance, and value. They are a good option for players who have outgrown their beginner skates and are looking for a skate that can help them improve their game. The 3X features a lightweight composite boot that provides good support and thermoforming capabilities for a custom fit. It also has a 40-ounce felt tongue for comfort and protection, and a Lightspeed Edge holder with LS+ stainless steel blades for durability and performance. The Vapor line has been a staple in Bauer's lineup for many years, known for its focus on quickness, agility, and responsiveness. The 3X sits as a more affordable option within the Vapor line, offering many of the same features and technologies as the higher-end models at a more accessible price point.


### Perfect skates for:

Players who skate 2-3+ times per week  


### Key features include:



* Significant weight reduction of approximately 6.5%
* Better overall fit with the asymmetrical toe cap.
* Comfort and protection with the 40oz Felt tongue featuring a comfort lining.
* Hydrophobic liner which provides an excellent grip.
* Full composite boot for durability and performance.
* Junior Skate features Motion-Flex and a LS Balance runner with a 13ft radius, facilitating easier bending of the knees and promoting good skating strides for kids.

The CCM Super Tacks AS3 Pro skates offer competition with a focus on power and stability. These skates feature a one-piece MonoFrame boot for enhanced energy transfer and responsiveness, as well as CCM's SpeedBlade XS holder for quick blade changes. On the other hand, the True TF9 Hockey Skates prioritize a customized fit and comfort, utilizing True Hockey's custom-fit system based on individual foot measurements. The TF9 skates provide a tailored fit for optimal performance and feature True's SHIFT holder for improved turning radius. Players can choose between the Super Tacks AS3 Pro and the TF9 based on their preferences for power, fit, and overall performance.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* These skates offer a significant jump in performance over entry-level skates. The Flex Composite boot provides a good balance of stiffness for powerful strides and some flex for maneuverability. They're perfect for skaters who want to improve their game without breaking the bank.
* The Vapor 3X fits true to size and feels comfortable right out of the box. The 40-ounce felt tongue with comfort lining offers good support and reduces pressure points. The asymmetrical toe cap also seems to help with a snug fit around the toes.
* Skate has a good amount of higher end features and has good interior support. We upgraded the foot beds to super feet since the include ones are typical unsupported foam. All in all a very good middle of the line skate for not a lot of money.

CONS:



* Skilled players who are used to top-of-the-line skates might find the Vapor 3X a bit too flexible. The flex profile is geared towards balance and maneuverability, which can sacrifice some energy transfer for powerful strides. 
* Blade holder cracked after a deflection during a game, and the material of the boot is already falling apart. Had these for about 4 months before having to buy Hyperlites because of the poor construction.
* The Vapor 3X doesn't offer any heat-molding capabilities and while the liner is comfortable…I have some wicked pressure points and am disappointed with the customization options.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The 3X was released close to the HyperLite, which was a revolutionary skate at the time, so it kinda got lost in the mix. It's still a good skate and very similar to the 3X Pro model but without as much comfort. It's a mid- to upper-level fully composite skate with a felt tongue and a hydrophobic liner with a great grip.

The Reflex Pro tongue and lacing system create a customizable, locked-in feel. This model builds upon the legacy of the Supreme line, known for its powerful feel on the ice, continuing Bauer's commitment to providing cutting-edge technology to help players elevate their game.


### Perfect skates for:

An elite level skater


### Key features include:

* Custom comfort and forward flex with the Reflex Pro tongue.
* Personalized fit with the Thermoformable Speed Plate 2.0.
* Quick steel replacement with the Tuuk Lightspeed Edge holder.
* Enhanced power with a carbon composite outsole.


### 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.
