JetSpeed FT6 Pro

# CCM Jetspeed FT6 Pro Hockey Skates


### Product Description: 


The CCM Jetspeed FT6 Pro is a high-performance hockey skate designed for players who prioritize speed and agility. It features a one-piece boot construction for a comfortable, game-ready fit and an unparalleled range of motion. The skate also comes with an ADPT comfort tongue for extra forward flexion and a great fit, and a Step Blacksteel blade for better edge life and exceptional gliding abilities.

The Jetspeed line is one of the top lines of hockey skates offered by CCM, a brand with a long and storied history in the sport. CCM was founded in 1900 and has been a leading manufacturer of hockey equipment ever since. The Jetspeed line was introduced in 2014 and has quickly become a favorite among players of all levels.


### Perfect skates for:

A player who skates 4-5+ times per week and needs the elite features of a top of the line skate. 


### Key features include:



* One-Piece boot speed featuring Game Ready Fit.
* RFM Composite and high-end core construction.
* TotalDri Pro+ Liner featuring Polygiene technology.
* Prevent lace-bite and enhance comfort with the ADPT Comfort Tongue featuring Flexmotion.
* Molded Ortholite Ultra footbed featuring ADPT memory foam.
* Easily adjust and secure your blades with the Speedblade XS holder featuring an enhanced dial.
* Flex tendon guard featuring carbon construction for better range of motion.


### Top competitors comparison: the [Bauer Vapor 3X Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/vapor-3x-pro/l165935) and the [True TF9 Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/pro-stock/l305705)

The CCM Jetspeed FT6 Pro, known for its focus on explosive acceleration and powerful strides, faces stiff competition from two rivals: the Bauer Vapor 3X Pro and the True TF9 Pro. Both share a high-performance build, but cater to slightly different styles. The Bauer Vapor 3X Pro mirrors the Jetspeed's focus on powerful skating, utilizing a stiff flex profile and a one-piece boot design for maximum energy transfer. However, the Vapor might offer a slightly more anatomical fit thanks to its Curv composite shell. On the other hand, the True TF9 Pro takes a distinct approach. While still lightweight, it prioritizes a heat-moldable shell for a personalized fit and a slightly more forgiving flex profile. This caters to players who value comfort and agility alongside some power transfer, making it a good choice for those who don't prioritize pure power like the Jetspeed and Vapor.


### Progression:

CCM's JetSpeed hockey skates have had various models and updates over the years, offering improvements in speed, performance, and fit. Here are some notable models and updates:

[JetSpeed FT1](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft1/l1305): Introduced as the first skate in the JetSpeed line, the FT1 featured a RocketFrame composite boot, SpeedCore 3 technology, and TotalDri Pro liner.

[JetSpeed FT2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft2-2/l11100): The FT2 skate introduced L1TE Frame 360 EVO technology, reducing the weight of the boot by 20 grams and improving rigidity. It also featured a wraparound tongue for enhanced fit and comfort.

[JetSpeed FT4 Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft4-pro-2/l165798): This model showcased the Hyperglide runner, which had a lighter blade design. The skate also boasted an asymmetrical toe cap for improved customization and fit.

[JetSpeed FT6 Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft6-pro-5/l330947): The FT6 Pro is part of the 2023 skate lineup, featuring top-of-the-line performance and technology including the new SuperSkin insert which protects the exterior and the ADPT comfort tongue with Flex motion. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* These skates offer a lot of bang for your buck! The one-piece boot is stiff and responsive, providing excellent power transfer for strong strides. They come with the top-of-the-line SpeedBlade XS runners which offer great edge control. For the price point, they feel like a true pro-level skate.
* The Jetspeed FT6 skates are surprisingly comfortable, even for a high-performance model. The liner is thermoformable, which allows for a customized fit around my ankle for better pressure point distribution and overall comfort.
* You get what you pay for. This high-end CCM is perfect for me. I spent about 2 hours trying to find the perfect fit for my feet; the FT6 was it for me. On the ice, this shines even more.

CONS



* They feel heavy on the feet. I have to get used to how heavy they are... I came from wearing the super light Mach supremes every day, so it’s a big difference.
* While the Game Ready Fit helps, there is a break-in period of a few weeks due to the stiffness of the boot. I’m still having some minor discomfort around the ankles.
* Before you purchase make sure the holders are straight!


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79))

The FT6 Pro is basically the FT4 Pro on steroids. It offers really, really good speed and a bit better comfort than the FT4 Pro. It also has more flexibility and memory foam to prevent lace bite, and it addresses range-of-motion issues. This skate offers speed, power, and a good range of motion. You can really dig in and get that power and still go with the angles.

Supreme Mach

Vapor 3X

# 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.


### Top competitors comparison: the [CCM Super Tacks AS3 Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/super-tacks-as3/pro-stock/l251934) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/super-tacks-as3/pro-stock/l251934) 

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.


### Progression:

[Vapor 1X](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/vapor-1x-2/l1368)



* Speed Plate Technology
* LS4 Steel
* 37.5 Liner
* An updated version of the X-Rib Curv Composite Boot, which has been aluminized. 
* TUUK Lightspeed Edge Holder.

[Vapor 2X](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/vapor-2x-pro-3/l59547)



* New technologies in the Vapor 2X include an asymmetrical toe cap and quarter construction
* A new three-piece, 48-oz felt tongue includes an exposed injected metatarsal guard for added protection
* Tuuk Lightspeed EDGE holder for a locked-in feel
* Tuuk LS3 runner for long-lasting edge life.

[Vapor 3X](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/vapor-3x-3/l165936)



* Significant weight reduction of approximately 6.5% lighter
* Asymmetrical toe cap for better overall fit
* 40oz Felt tongue with comfort lining 
* Hydrophobic liner with great grip to secure the foot in place
* Full composite boot


### 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.

Supreme 3S

# Bauer Supreme 3S Hockey Skates


###  Product Description:


The Bauer Supreme 3S hockey skates are designed for skilled players seeking a comfortable and powerful stride. They feature a lightweight and flexible 3D-lasted flex composite boot that provides support and stability, while the Power Profile blade helps players maintain speed and explosiveness. Additionally, the Supreme 3S comes in three different fit options to accommodate players with varying foot shapes.

Within the Bauer lineup, the Supreme 3S falls into the "performance" category, which sits between the top-of-the-line "Vapor" skates designed for elite players and the "Nexus" skates geared towards recreational players. This positioning reflects the 3S's blend of features that cater to both performance and comfort.


### Perfect skates for:

the skilled player who wants added comfort


### Key features include:



* Superior support with the 3D lasted flex composite quarter package.
* Hydrophobic microfiber lining.
* Enhanced comfort with Aerofoam ankle padding.
* 48oz felt tongue featuring an exposed Inj metatarsal guard.
* Personalized comfort with the For Fit+ footbed featuring memory foam.
* Pro TPU outsole (TPU Intermediate Only).
* Quick and easy blade changes with the TUUK Lightspeed edge holder.
* Powerful strides with the LS1 Power profile runner.
* Regular toe cap for added durability.


### Top competitors comparison: the [CCM Tacks 9090](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/tacks-9090-2/l10103) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956) 

The CCM Tacks 9090 skates offer an anatomical fit with a one-piece boot construction that enhances stability and responsiveness. They also provide custom memory foam ankle padding for added comfort and a lightweight composite outsole for optimal energy transfer. On the other hand, the True TF9 skates prioritize a customizable fit, as they are handcrafted to each player's unique foot measurements for a personalized experience. With a carbon fiber one-piece construction, the TF9 skates offer lightweight durability and excellent power transfer. Both alternatives provide players with high-quality options comparable to the Bauer Supreme 3S, allowing them to choose based on individual preferences and requirements.


### Progression:

The Bauer Supreme 3S hockey skate, released in 2020, currently doesn't have a direct predecessor within the Supreme line with a distinct model name like "1S" or "2S." Bauer sometimes introduces minor improvements to existing skate lines throughout their production cycle without necessarily introducing a new numbered model.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* The 3D-lasted flex composite boot provides a good amount of stiffness while still maintaining some flexibility for maneuverability. The skate feels very responsive.
* The fit on the Supreme 3S is a major improvement over my previous skates. The Performance Fit System with the hydrophobic microfiber liner feels super comfortable. The break-in period was reasonable, and there weren't any major pressure points.
* I had no issues with them. There was no lace bite like in my Vapors, and there was no rubbing in the toe cap. They literally feel like slippers on my feet.

CONS:



* This skate is not meant for a wide foot! After 45 minutes, I wanted to get off the ice; it took me up to 2 hours to walk normally. They put so much pressure on the outside of my feet. Super uncomfortable. 
* The Supreme 3S offers some heat-molding capabilities, but only on certain areas of the liner.
* My son is having a hard time with these skates. They are not comfortable even after 2 sessions of molding and spending an extra $40 on special inserts. 


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The 3S will give you a lot of power, more power than you would get with some of the older models. It features the Pro TPU outsole, which has additional stiffness in the lower portion of the skate, delivering more speed. It's lightweight, and the upgraded foam also adds comfort. The 3S has the stainless steal runner and the trigger release system, allowing you to quickly swap out the blade. It's a skate you could play multiple seasons with.

Supreme Shadow

Supreme 3S Pro

# Bauer Supreme 3S Pro Hockey Skates


### Product Description: 


The Bauer Supreme 3S Pro hockey skates are designed for skilled players who want a skate that offers a good balance of comfort and performance. The skates feature a 3D Curv composite boot that is lightweight and thermoformable for a custom fit. The boot has a power-cut design that helps to improve ankle stability and power transfer. The skates also have a 13-foot radius blade that is designed for good edge control and maneuverability. Overall, the Bauer Supreme 3S Pro skates are a good option for hockey players who are looking for a comfortable and high-performance skate.

The Bauer Supreme line has been a popular choice for hockey players for many years, and the 3S Pro skates are the latest addition to the line. The skates are designed to be more comfortable and forgiving than previous models in the line, while still offering good performance. 


### Perfect skates for:

A skilled player who wants added comfort.


### Key features include:



* The Flex Tendon Guard enables an expanded range of motion with each stride
* A symmetrical taper provides support for straight-line speed
* Power Cut enhances foot stability with increased wrap
* Improved forward flex range of motion, facilitating smoother strides.
* The integrated outsole delivers heightened energy transfer for greater push-off power.
* Increased ice contact and seamless transitions from back to front, with a balance point towards the back for a more neutral take-off feel.


### Top competitors comparison: The [CCM Jetspeed FT2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft2-2/l11100) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956) 

The Bauer Supreme 3S Pro emphasizes power and stability with its anatomical fit and a versatile Tuuk LS Pulse TI blade, providing excellent energy transfer. On the other hand, the CCM Jetspeed FT2 focuses on agility and acceleration, boasting the RocketFrame Composite quarter package and SpeedBlade XS holder for quick turns and explosive strides. Meanwhile, the True TF9 combines lightweight construction with a thermoformable boot, ensuring a personalized fit and heightened responsiveness. 


### Progression:

The Bauer Supreme 2S Pro was a top-of-the-line skate in the Supreme line before the 3S Pro. Key improvements in the 3S Pro over the 2S Pro are:



* **Fit:** The Performance Fit System allows for a more personalized fit compared to the three-width option system in the 2S Pro.
* **Performance:** The 3S Pro features advancements in energy transfer, edge control, and overall responsiveness.
* **Weight:** The 3S Pro is slightly lighter due to material and construction refinements.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* Thanks to the Tuuk LS Pulse TI blade and the skate's rigid construction, I have exceptional power transfer. I can go really fast, and my strides feel really powerful.
* Super comfortable. The thermoformable Curv Composite boot is awesome. The skate molded to my foot over time, providing a snug fit with no pressure points.
* Best skates I have ever used. The fit is perfect no lace bite at all.

CONS:



* These skates are not wide enough. I thought the tight pressure in my toe would go away, but it's actually worse. I should have gone with custom skates.
* They feel heavy… almost clunky when I’m on the ice.
* These skates are narrower than I like, and I will likely have to have them punched out. I am unimpressed with the profiled blade; I like the black series blades better.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

Similar to the 3S, the Pro version has even more bells and whistles. It features the classic pro tongue with molded inserts for a customized fit. It still has the classic Supreme composite boot and higher-level comfort foam. The higher the level of skate, the more comfort in the foam, and usually, the less time it takes to break in. You still see the 3S Pro in the NHL, and they hold up well. You can also quickly change out the blades and keep going. Players use them for years without any kind of loss in performance in terms of power.

Pro Custom

# True Pro Custom Hockey Skates


###  Product Description: 


True Custom Hockey Skates are built with a focus on individual foot anatomy, using a 3D scanning process to create personalized shells for optimal fit and performance. This customization is a significant departure from traditional, off-the-shelf skates, and represents a continued commitment to innovation within the True brand. True was founded by Scott Van Horne, a figure with over 30 years of experience in the custom skate industry, and their focus on individualized performance reflects this heritage.


### Perfect skates for:

every player who values a customized fit


### Key features include:



* Leverages a 3D Anatomical Foot Scan
* Thermoformable material to enhance fit and neuromuscular connection with the ice
* Redesigned CARV toecap features a sleek design aesthetic in an even lighter package 
* Antimicrobial liner compliments the multi-layered construction with improved moisture-wicking
* Pro-level stell and holder offer improved durability and enhanced blade security
* GENETIX insole offers two different fit systems to accommodate low/mid and high arches. 


### 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.

Vapor X3.7

# Bauer Vapor X3.7 Hockey Skates


### Product Description: 


The Bauer Vapor X3.7 hockey skates are a good option for recreational and intermediate players who prioritize a balance between comfort and performance. They are designed to be comfortable and lightweight, with a 3D injected composite boot that is 4% lighter than comparable models. The skate also features a microfiber liner and memory foam ankle padding for added comfort. Additionally, the Bauer Vapor X3.7 has a traditional fit that is designed for players with narrower feet.

The Bauer Vapor X3.7 falls into the Bauer Vapor line, which was established in 2010 alongside the Supreme line. The Vapor line is known for its focus on performance and weight reduction, while the Supreme line emphasizes comfort and a wider fit. The X3.7 is a mid-tier offering within the Vapor line, making it a good option for players who are looking for a skate that offers good performance without breaking the bank.


### Perfect skates for:

The competitive weekly player


### Key features include:



* Experience optimal comfort with the soft microfiber liner.
* Enhanced cushioning and prevention of rubbing with memory foam ankle padding.
* Support and flexibility provided by the 3D injected composite material.
* Lightweight design, being 4% lighter than any comparable model.
* Excellent support and feel with the Form Fit footbed.


### Top competitors comparison: the [CCM Tacks 9060](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/tacks-9060-2/l10518) and the [True TF7](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf7/l164202)

The CCM Tacks 9060 skates offer a balance of performance and value. They incorporate a synthetic composite quarter package for lightweight support and a durable construction. These skates also feature a two-piece tongue for improved comfort and a Speedblade Stainless steel holder for solid energy transfer. On the other hand, the True TF7 skates prioritize comfort and customization with True Hockey's custom-fit system based on individual foot measurements. These skates provide a personalized fit for optimal performance and include True's SHIFT holder for better turning radius. 


### Progression:

The Vapor X3.7 is an upgrade from the 2019 Vapor X2.7 model. The X3.7 uses digital printing technology to amplify the visual richness of the skate. Along with an updated skate liner from the X2.7 model to a microfiber liner with memory foam padding, the X3.7 model extends the liner material though the inside of the 40 oz two-piece tongue. Bauer also made the X3.7 4% lighter.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* 
* These skates are a perfect option for recreational players or those new to hockey. They're very comfortable, with a good amount of ankle support. The liner is soft and keeps my feet warm. 
* I was impressed by how lightweight these skates are. They feel much more agile than my old pair. The memory foam ankle padding is super comfortable and there's no break-in period needed.
* Holds up well for weekly play. I've been using these skates for a few months now, playing 1-2 times a week, and they're holding up great. The LS1 blades are durable and haven't needed sharpening yet.

CONS:



* These skates are definitely not for competitive players who need top-of-the-line performance. They lack some of the stiffness and responsiveness of more expensive models.
* Not the best for wide feet. I found the fit to be a bit narrow, especially in the toe box. If you have wider feet, these might not be the most comfortable option.
* The tongue on these skates is a little on the thin side. I would have preferred a thicker tongue for more protection against lace bite.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79))

The X3.7 is a middle-tier skate. It's the skate a player would use after a introductory level skate or a lower level like x 2.7. This skate is flexible and agile and has a good amount of comfort, enough that it will last you quite a while as long as you're not skating seven times a week. The X3.7 has a quick release for exchanging blades, so it's meant to be worn for quite a while, longer than the lifespan of a single blade.

### Top competitors comparison: the [Bauer Supreme 3S Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/supreme-3s-pro/l65212) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956)

The 3S Pro skates focus on power and precision, with features like an asymmetrical quarter package design, Form-Fit+ footbed, and Tuuk Lightspeed Edge holder. On the other hand, the TF9 skates prioritize a customized fit through True Hockey's patented fit system, featuring a two-piece composite quarter construction and SHIFT holder. Each option presents different strengths, with the 3S Pro emphasizing control and comfort, the TF9 focusing on a personalized fit, and the FT4 Pro highlighting agility and responsiveness. 


### Progression:

CCM's JetSpeed hockey skates have had various models and updates over the years, offering speed, performance, and fit improvements. Here are some notable models and updates:

[**JetSpeed FT1**](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft1/l1305): Introduced as the first skate in the JetSpeed line, the FT1 featured a RocketFrame composite boot, SpeedCore 3 technology, and TotalDri Pro liner.

[**JetSpeed FT2**](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft2-2/l11100): The FT2 skate introduced L1TE Frame 360 EVO technology, reducing the weight of the boot by 20 grams and improving rigidity. It also featured a wraparound tongue for enhanced fit and comfort.

[**JetSpeed FT4 Pro**](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft4-pro-2/l165798): This model showcased the Hyperglide runner, which had a lighter blade design. The skate also boasted an asymmetrical toe cap for improved customization and fit.

[**JetSpeed FT6 Pro**](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft6-pro-5/l330947): The FT6 Pro is part of the 2023 skate lineup, featuring top-of-the-line performance and technology including the new SuperSkin insert which protects the exterior better than ever before. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* These skates are top-of-the-line. The composite boot provides incredible stiffness and responsiveness. My strides feel powerful, and the edges hold like nobody's business.  
* The TotalFit Pro+ liner with the asymmetrical tongue offers a fantastic, locked-in fit. The liner feels supportive and comfortable from the start, and the heat-molding capabilities allowed me to get a truly custom fit around my ankles and heels.
* Despite the stiffness for power transfer, the JetSpeed FT4 feels surprisingly lightweight.  The fit allows for good mobility in the ankle, and the boot design helps with quick turns and overall agility. 

CONS:



* These skates are expensive. While the performance is good, the price tag is only realistic for serious players or those with a professional budget. There are very good skates available at lower price points.
* Unfortunately after using these for less than a season, a puck from a shot hit the interior of the skate and created a huge crack in the "one piece boot". I was shocked at how easily these skates split open.
* These skates needed a longer break-in period than I expected, especially compared to other JetSpeed models I’ve tried. It took them a few weeks of use before the skates felt truly comfortable.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79))

Many people compare the FT4 Pro to the HyperLite, but the FT4 has much more power. It's an incredibly powerful skate, and the fit is perfect. I would do my stride in the FT4 Pro and realized pretty quickly that I needed to watch out! I'm not used to the power. You see a lot of NHL players still using the FT4 Pro. I'll see a player going really fast and think wow, look at that. Oh yeah, they are wearing the JetSpeed FT4 Pro.

### Top competitors comparison: The [CCM Jetspeed FT2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/ccm/jetspeed-ft2-2/l11100) and [True Pro Custom](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/pro-custom-4/l10558) Hockey Skates

The Jetspeed FT2 skates offer an anatomical fit with a one-piece boot construction and a customizable fit through heat molding. They also feature the Speedblade XS holder system for quick blade changes. On the other hand, the True Pro Custom skates focus on customizability, with handcrafted construction tailored to the player's specific foot measurements. They offer premium materials and the ability to choose blade options. Both alternatives provide similar levels of performance and customization to the Bauer Vapor 2X.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* Two thumbs up for 2X’s. 5 years on my last set of skates and it was time for an upgrade, and the 2X’s do not disappoint. Very light, comfortable, and fast. 
* The fit on these skates is excellent. The new anatomical design with a wider toe box feels more comfortable than previous Vapor models, especially for players with wider feet. 
* The boot on these skates feels lighter than expected. The responsiveness of the boot is also great, allowing for good energy transfer in my strides.

CONS:



* While the stiffness is good for intermediate players, some advanced skaters might find the Vapor 2X a bit too flexible.
* I question the longevity of the liner. While they seem fine for now, I worry about how they'll hold up with long-term use.
* The Vapor 2X offers some limited heat-molding capabilities, but not to the same extent as some higher-end Bauer skates. 


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The Vapor 2X is just one notch down in durability and comfort from the 2X Pro. You might not notice as much comfort right off the bat, but overall, the fit and feel are pretty much the same. The 2X will still have the asymmetrical toe cap, ankle padding, and three-piece felt tongue. If you gave someone a new pair of 2X Pros and the 2Xs, blindfolded them, and asked them to figure out which was which, they would have difficulty distinguishing between the two.

### 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.

### Top competitors comparison: the [Bauer Supreme 3S Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/supreme-3s-pro/l65212) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956)

The CCM Tacks skates are known for their advanced features and performance-driven design, offering excellent support and mobility on the ice.

The True TF9 skates prioritize a personalized fit and enhanced comfort, with True Hockey's custom-fit system based on individual foot measurements. Overall, players should consider their playing style, preferences, and fit when choosing between these high-quality options.


### Progression:

While there isn't a clearly defined predecessor with a single model name leading directly to the CCM AS-V Pro Hockey Skates (released in 2022), there's evidence suggesting it succeeds skates within the Tacks line focused on power and explosiveness. Updates include:



* The AS-V Pro’s one-piece Power boot, an upgrade from the AS3 Pro model, is engineered for explosiveness. 
* New Powerflex tendon guard with carbon, designed to improve your range of motion
* With the AS-V Pro, buyers can now choose which runner they’d like: CCM’s Step Blacksteel, Step V-Steel, or Step Steel 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* The one-piece boot and carbon construction are super stiff and really transfer energy into your strides. My slapshot has gotten noticeably harder since I switched to these skates. Plus, the Powerflex tendon allows for a full range of motion for powerful strides.
* By far the most comfortable skate/boot I've ever put my feet into...like warm melted butter.
* For a high-performance stiff boot, these skates are surprisingly lightweight and maneuverable. The Step Steel blades are sharp and give you excellent edge control. They helped me improve my agility on the ice.

CONS:



* These skates are definitely at the top end of the price range. They're a great skate, but you're paying for the premium features and performance.
* These are very stiff skates designed for powerful strides. They require a lot of leg strength to use effectively.
* The stock laces that come with the skates are just okay. I replaced them with a higher quality waxed lace for a better fit and feel. This seems like a minor detail on a high-end skate.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The AS-V Pro offers a close, professional fit, and a lot of power. I really love the quick acceleration. The number one thing with this skate is comfort. The padding really secures the ankle and foot while keeping the flexibilityity to turn and move. The tongue has a funky design, but it allows you to get a full range of motion without feeling insecure in the skate or like it's going to fall off or wobble.

AS-V

# CCM Tacks AS-V Hockey Skates

### Product Description: 


The CCM Tacks AS-V hockey skates are designed for powerful strides and explosiveness on the ice. They feature a one-piece boot for superior energy transfer and a close fit, along with a lightweight composite construction for better mobility. The skates also come with a new Powerflex tendon for increased range of motion and a customizable steel blade option. As part of the long-standing Tacks line, known for its focus on power skating, the AS-V skates offer an elite option for players seeking top-of-the-line performance without the top-of-the-line price tag.


### Perfect skates for:

player who skates 3-4 times per week and is looking for elite features at a lower price point


### Key features include:

* Customizable fit and comfort with the interchangeable tongue.
* Cushioning and support with the molded CCM Ortholite Ultralite footbed.
* Comfort with memory foam and seamless padding.
* Support and flexibility with the Powerflex Tendon Guard featuring Fiberglass construction.


### Top competitors comparison: the [Bauer Vapor X2.9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/vapor-x2-9/l60200) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956)

The CCM Tacks ASV skates feature an anatomical fit with the AttackFrame 2 quarter package and Speedblade XS holder for optimal performance. In comparison, the Bauer Vapor X2.9 skates prioritize speed and agility with a thermoformable boot, tapered fit design, and Tuuk Lightspeed Edge holder. On the other hand, the True TF9 skates prioritize comfort and a custom fit with the True Hockey custom-fit process, Trueform composite boot, and BRT blade holders. Players should consider their playing style, foot shape, and preferences for fit and performance when deciding between these models.


### Progression:

Since the AS-V is a recent release, specific year-over-year upgrades are uncommon. However, subtle upgrades from the previous year and previous AS3 models includes: 



* The AS-V is upgraded with its highly advanced One-Piece Boot Power technology. 
* All new level of comfort and protection due to the Asymmetrical Tritech Tongue with D30 lite foam. 
* Improved tendon guard with fiberglass to increase range of motion for fuller strides and increased skating power. 
* Improved spring-lock system that tightly secures the blade to the holder and makes swapping out blades more efficient. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* The one-piece composite boot is stiff and lightweight, providing excellent energy transfer with every push. I noticed a significant difference in my skating speed and agility after switching to the AS-V. They feel very responsive on the ice.
* The one-piece boot on these skates provides a good balance of stiffness for performance and comfort. The multi-density foam core seem to help with the break-in period, making them comfortable to wear for long practices. 
* The AS-V is out of this world for comfort in the wide. They have fixed the low volume and the toe cap so no longer rubbing on the top of the foot. I knew these were great as soon as I put them on. I’m glad I didn't settle for the other skates and waited for these to come out. 

CONS:



* For sure a longer break-in period due to the stiffness of the boot. I had some ankle soreness during the first few weeks of use.
* The AS-V skates don't offer as many customization options as some other high-end models. The liner is not fully heat-moldable like some other skates. 
* I am worried about the blade holder system. They come with plastic insert. Took out and tried to put in V-Steel. Could not get to go in.

Vapor X500

### Product Description 

Bauer X500 skates are in the middle of the pack of the Vapor line. Vapor skates offer unique builds for players who are looking for speed and balance at a competitive price. The Trueform Tech PU boot with X-Rib pattern is heat moldable and super stiff for increased support and protection. The one-piece injected heel and ankle core offer increased stability and durability, while the interior Hydrophobic Microfiber liner wicks away moisture and keeps the foot dry. Anaform foam padding protects the ankle while a two-piece felt tongue with injected high-density foam offers protection from impacts and lace bite. Tuuk LightSpeed Edge Holders and Tuuk LightSpeed Super Stainless Steel runners are lightweight and offer a tool-less removal system for quick blade changes. 

### Expert Notes

The main thing regarding the X500 is the lack of stiffness throughout the boot relative to some of the higher end vapor models. For someone skating 1-2 times per week, they work quite well and are priced on the lower end of the spectrum, which is ideal if you’re on a budget. The low level of boot stiffness does allow for greater comfort initially, and they are super easy to break in and get used to. The entire line of Vapor skates has always been a good looking line of skates as well, as they all tend to stick to the all-black boot with red detailing.

Supreme S160

JetSpeed FT4

JetSpeed Control

### Product Description

Maintaining the Jetspeed style but with significant upgrades, CCM Jetspeed Control skates offer enhanced performance with exclusive style and comfort. The heat moldable tight-heel fit increases comfort and durability, while the boot widens towards the toe to provide more wiggle room (particularly for players with wider than average feet). The skate is lined with SpeedCore2 foam, which molds to the foot. The liner also features TotalDri technology to help wick away moisture. The Tri-Tech felt tongue and Smooth Contour Comfort Pro Pads allow for maximum protection without excessive weight. Lastly, the SpeedBlade skate steel is perfectly balanced for superior edge control in composite JetSpeed390 holders, designed for enhanced stiffness and better power transfer.

### Expert Notes

These wheels have a sweet look, and are comparable to the higher end Jetspeed FT1 skates from CCM. With an all black contoured boot, complemented by low-key red and white flare along the sides and back of the tendon guard. In terms of performance, they are comfortable and are quite form-fitting. The soft tongue and narrower heel pocket helps to keep the foot steady, without any noticeable pressure points. All in all: these skates offer a lot of comfort and a sharp look at a mid-range price.
