Join us online: Instagram and Twitter @howtohockey It's common for hockey players to get pain in their feet after buying new hockey skates. Bauer sent me a brand new pair so I thought I'd do a series of videos on how to get new skates fitting properly and eliminate as much pain as possible. In this video I visit a local hockey shop and talk to Glen Sharpley who has fitted and sharpened thousands of pairs of skates. In the next video we will talk about foot beds and in the last video we will cover profiling hockey skates.

Hey Coach Jeremy, I just bought my first pair of skates for the first time since high school and I just got them baked today and sharpened. I want to thank you for your channel and sharing your knowledge and passion for the game which allowed me to repursue my passion from half a lifetime ago. I'm currently in the process of losing weight so I can get fit and join an adult league next year. I appreciate all your videos and advice. Cheers!
Bought Bauer Supreme NS 2018. I didn’t bake them, but I moulded them by using a hairdryer to push down on the lace treads. Tied them as tight as possible, waited for a bit, blew them again, tightened the laces. They fit perfectly.
Hello fellow hockey enthusiasts!! I would just like to say thank you to Jeremy for all his help and videos, I know they have really helped me!! I started out as a beginner skater, shooter, and stick handler, and in just a week, I have improved SOO much!!! Thank you so much for putting in your time to help people like me!

Update? How are you doing now?
I love when I get new skates and bake them the heat feels so nice lol.
New Jersey sucks
Walks into a CCM shop with Bauer skates xD
Ramster if you look in the back ground they are selling bauer skates
@@kenandbeck1 Can't really tell from the distance, so I don't know if those are Bauer.
@@Ramsters They are. I'm in here daily.
you blind pal, lots of Bauer skates in the background
I was thinking that too xD. There was everything CCM the man has a jacket ccm.
Thanks for this good video, ive been watching videos and ready all day about baking my new skates at home, i live so far from a pro shop its really not an option for me, so this helped. Also im really looking forward to the next video, ive been looking at Speed Plates for a while but have yet to try them!
Keep up the good work Jeremy! Love the channel!
1:45 he looks like an old Gordon Ramsay
I was thinking thatttt
He also has the same, “can’t be fucked” demeanour, as Gordon Ramsey.

I just can't believe how useful these videos are...life changing.
Regards to Glen Sharpley who played his junior hockey with the Hull Festivals in the province of Québec. Great player, swift and smooth skater Glen was. Brings back lots of memories. Cheers and be weep all!
Awesome. Thanks for the info and the video Jeremy.
I just got new skate and the first time I used them they were very uncomfortable but they were backed, but I had to get use to them cause I’ve always used already used skates before and this video was very helpful thank you!
I agree because it helps the skate mold to your foot right after you bake it.
I just got new skates and this is really helpful
I just got some new skates that are a little loose so thanks, I think this video helped.
Great delivery of relevant content. Thank you.
I am trying to switch to hockey from figure skating and the baking part sounds awesome! I remember my figure skating trainer saying "it your feet don't hurt they aren't laced right" and baking wasn't a thing with full leather skates either so this seems so amazing to me
Eyyyy I too am a figure skater turned hockey player. Until I got my first pair of hockey skates and completely forgot the uncomfortable process of breaking in new skates 😂 I prefer to do it the old fashioned way and break em in even though it’s uncomfortable lol. It won’t be uncomfortable forever.
ahhhh this brings me back to the days of baking skates and wearing them around the house all the time to get them broken in before camp or the next season.
After playing semi-pro and retiring 20 years ago I am getting back into skating since my son has started hockey. I just got the Bauer 2S...for $699. I Had them baked once and just a normal sharpening. I was going to profile them to try and match my old skate blades but decided not to after skating a couple of times. They came from the factory as a '9' so profiling wasn't necessary for me...They feel like I'm wearing sneakers. No pain at all. Great skate...
i Just started skating and picked up a set of Bauer"s from a box store. I have a fairly good background in mechanics and general ability to hack and experiment until I find what works. The skates were not very pliable and I could tell they were not allowing for the best support. So I used a heat gun to soften them up and laced them tight. This helped out quite a bit. A poor man's oven. I just stumbled on this video and see I wasn't to far off from the oven technique. My other thought was, why in the world we are still using laces on skates instead of a more secure clamp style system such as what's found on ski boots.
damn i wish i lived near a shop like that!!!
great video, super informative! thank you...
I saw Glen Sharpley play for the North Stars at the old Met Center when I was a kid. One of the games I was at a bat flew out out and it was Glen who batted it down with his stick and it fell onto the ice where a ref picked it up and who knows where it went. Fun player to watch!
Dave Winfield taking in a hockey game?
I just got the ccm jet speed 300 skates a few months ago and I got them molded and they are awesome
I have the 1S and had them heat molded at a Source For Sports as well. I still have the speed plates in, they formed pretty nicely to my feet, I like them. I had Super Feet in my Ribcores and those might just be a bit better for locking your heel in I think, I'm still contemplating going back to them but the Speed Plate doesn't really bother me enough. You should show in the next video the actual inside of your 1S after you mold it just to show people how the skate is completely shaped around your foot and your ankles structure inside compared to what a cheap skate does
Just got some CCM 6092 Tacks. After heat molding them I was amazed at how the top few eyelets wrapped to the top of my ankle or lower shin.
I wore them sitting in the recliner for a while before wearing them on the ice. After 4 skates they were totally broken in.
Changing from a skate that is 8yrs old I was amazed at how light they are, how well they heat molded, and how much effortless the stride is.
hoctorthepipedoctor I'm using $50 skates right now I've been wearing for 3 years. Does the stride noticeably differ from your old skates?
If your old skates don't have the +4.0 holder yes the stride will be considerably different. It took me about two pickup games to get used to the extra height of the holder. You have to readjust your foot placement to account for it. Once you figure it out though it makes the strides more effortless and turns much tighter.
0:52 - 1:37 is why I want to live in Canada.
Driving on ice is kinda dangerous 😬
@@percaros welcome to Russia)) There is a same nature and climate as well
That’s literally how it is in central New York too a lot of the times in winter lol
This was a great video very informative
Jeremy love the video I have watched all of your videos and learn so much from them you're a inspiration to me and why did you buy another pair of skates if you had the supertacks
What an awesome hockey store, I wish I had something like that near me especially with a pro that can give you great advice
This just reminds me how badly my skates fit me lol. I'm in so much pain when I skate. Can't wait to get new ones. Unfortunately my feet are two different sizes and I'm on my third pair already so I'm saving up for customs lol
best idea to get custom skates
Thanks for the info coach.
Always learn something thanks!
Hi there. Brilliant video and plain english!
Many thanks
Great video. Super helpful
What an amazing looking shop !
I wish Bauer sent me $900 skates
It's pretty easy
Step 1: Start youtube channel and create the best hockey videos you can
Step 2: Also start Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat and Instagram accounts and add the best hockey content you can to those too
Step 3: Keep on adding content and growing these accounts for 6 years
Step 4: Spend almost all of your time coaching hockey, teaching hockey, playing hockey, shooting hockey videos, editing hockey videos, analyzing hockey videos, or working on a hockey website
Step 5: Receive skates
The Singh if you're gonna go to a store and buy off the shelf then you'll be paying the thousand bucks but if you really want to find a deal you can. I go on forums and hooked up with a guy who could get any pair you wanted (100% legally) for $550 so I got the 1S brand new in the box and with all the warranty. Also it's good to have connections with reps, I got 3 brand new CCM Super Tacks sticks for just a little over the price of one on the shelf. Most people don't wanna be bothered looking for better deals and just walk in to a shop and buy retail but if you look in the pro stock communities online you will always be able to get the top end gear for way less.
Or you could also follow Jeremy's steps, in 6 years the new Supremes might come equipped with rockets on them lol
The Hockey Movement by How To Hockey so I should have those skates by Friday then eh? Lol great vid!
Best reply ever. Well deserved sir.
Paynan whats the name of the forums?
I was actually looking at insoles today, the superfeet carbon one was on my list just to add comfort and performance. Wasn't sold so hopefully I get some more information in your next video.
Also looking into powerfoot inserts...your opinion on them?
Cool! Can't wait to see next video, because I am about to buy a new pair of skates (CCM Ribcor 48K in my mind). I tried in shop high-end skates from Bauer, they hurt out of the box. But I had a question - is it possible to punch up and mold skate to any kind of crazy foot pattern (for example I have Flatfooted feet)?
I am already subscriber for two years now, but decided to turn on notifications to not to miss next video! :)
Brilliant Jeremy! Looking forward to the next few with interest. I've just started using S190's from Vapor X800's and the difference is night and day, I feel quicker with the better fitting skate and yeah about 4 skates before they feel good.
I will be interested in the profiling video, I use 5"8 at the moment as I'm a tall fellow.
Keep up the good work.
That store is heaven!
If you want to see heaven for real go on the net ...sport rousseau in Canada
Wish there were awesome hockey stores like that here in So Cal.
I got some good skates baked at uhh.. Hockey Giant or whatever in Anaheim. They baked them. I bought them at the Christmas time a few years ago and got a good deal. They hurt for a few skates but this past Christmas I spent four hours a day in them on an ODR in Alberta Canada and had ZERO pain.
I just got my Supreme S2’s re-baked today at my local pro hockey life, quick in and out.. the pain from wear and tear is now in the past.
I'm extremely new to skating and this video was a great instructional tour of what to expect with my skates once I've spent some time with them and had them properly heat-treated. The questions were exactly what I was hoping to have answered, like how long after heat-molding should I expect a break-in period to be, and the levels of discomfort I should expect from modern technology. Thank you! PS I wear size 16 shoe and was able to find size 15 Bauer Vapor X700s at Strauss in Minnesota, great shop!
Size 16!!! Are you Grizzly Adams?
Grrr!! Just got some really nice True cat7's today. I was not told to sit still. I stood up and did some minimal feeling around / flexing after having the hot skates heelbone tied. Hope I didn't hurt anything. The comfort and support of the different True skates felt head and shoulders above the rest of the $500-$1100 skates I tried. I can't believe the most comfortable thing I've ever put on my foot is a freaking hockey skate.
Great Video Jeremy..
Any idea when you are going to drop that profiling vid? About to pick up some new jets and would like to have that info. Thanks.
i have a plate on my ankle that hurts like hell..i have the bauer s35 maybe 200 pair...im gonna try this..thanks for the tips coach
Would it be helpful for me to bake a new pair of vapor x600s? They are kind of in that midrange where I am not sure.
I NEED this guy to help me with skates because I have these problems
The past 2 or 3 pairs of skates I've had I didn't need to bake. Ccms jetspeed controls were fine out of the box and so were the ft1s
I yesterday got new Skates :D What a timing.
Hey Jeremy! Nice video but i have a question. I have Supreme 190 skates but i havent baked them because it felt soo good out of the box. Should i bake them if i want a true custom fit or it will form anyway if i just skate?
How should you choose a new (lower end) skate? I have no idea how you go about it and I usually have arch pain in the skates Ive worn before
amazing content
hope you keep update :)
I have the Bauer Viper X:60, will baking them widen them. My feet are are crunched on the width
thank you for this video! There's literally nothing on UA-cam for a good explanation for baking skates. I would like to know more detail about the actually baking process and all the details with it. how long? how hot? how to do it at home with a normal oven?
CodiTC I have an article with that info. From this video I didn't explicitly say it but I believe Glen says 200 degrees and 5 minutes for a preheated oven.
Super videos -thanks
We walk,run,skate heel to toe. ball and socket and hinge joints. the profile must match the circumference of the individual player. The skate will support the arch and compression of the foot so profiling to circumference will optimize the body's rotation.
I’ve had the vapor xxx’s for several seasons and think it’s time for a new pair. I wear a 9.5 size shoe and the skates are a size 8. I went to a store and tried on a size a pair of 6.5 and they said those are size you want. Had to test them out and hurt my feet. Need some pointers
Jeez, Beautiful shop he has there. I'm jealous!
Go see sport rousseau ....... this is à hockey Shop in Canada
Worst part of hockey is that new skate pain 😖
And helmet pain
And then there's the Bergevin pain :D
New jock pain
@@gbstitanshockey Not as bad for me being a goalie but still. its a bitch
And HIV
I got Bauer 800 skates a couple months ago. I have worn them about once a week. They tend to hurt in the arch area quite a bit. Baking helped a little but pain is still an issue. Would an insert help?
Did someone break the plastic eyelets? the eyletes broke on both of my 1X... first broke after 3-4weeks, 2nd pair broke after 3-4 months... hope i still get warranty on them. i love the comfort they have but i start hating them cause they dont last!!! thinking about getting the x900 or a different brand with regular eyelets next if they keep breaking! my x100 were awesome and last 2 years without problems
Good vid thanks
Got a pair of Bauer one s and had them fitted and baked at a national sport. It's been two full seasons since I got them. (Just play shinny at local outdoor rink) I still experience pain in both of my feet pretty much the whole time I'm in my skates. I've had this problem my whole life, but I always had the wrong size skates, and I figured when I finally got the right size (10 EE) I figured my pain wouldn't be a problem any more. I'm very disappointed cause they were $500 skates, got them for $250 tho during the off season. But as Im probably done growing I figured I had gotten my last pair of skates for a very long time.
My local store offers vacuum fitting for skates. Does that work too and what are the differences between heatmolding and vacuum fitting?
Hi, I'm planning to get Bauer S150 and I'm not too sure if I should bake it as it is a Recreational Skate
What are the tips I should take note of?
I just skate recreationally once a week or so. Have a 12.5 A dress shoe, bought expensive pair of CCMs painful for 5 years, hard to stop. Bought new pair, lighter weight, about 70% better, trying different inserts including high arch CCM. Baked skates once, perhaps try again. Best, Ken
Jeremy so I just got the mx3 skates are those good skates
What temperature and for how long do you bake a top end skate, say Bauer 1X's in a standard oven? Thanks.
I just bought S170 Goalie skates and am wondering what I can do to get used to the low ankle/stiffer boot?
Thank you coach Jeremy!!! I’m new to hockey and in junior sizes bc I have v small feet now bc of medical reasons I’m hopefully going to the family owned hockey store an hour north to go get fitted for skates in a few weeks but I don’t know if you have to buy skates right when you get fitted I just want to know my size so I can save money for new skates when my tax refund hits!! And I need new marsblade off ice training skates bc of my small feet from going down 2 shoe sizes in 4 months.
Do you have a video on the top of the line models ?
Hey Jeremy ! I just received my pair of CCM Ribcor 48Ks in 9.5D. The length is perfect, but when I tie them up super tight, I've got a couple of painful pressure points halfway through the midfoot and the heel. Since the toe box and the forefoot feel super good width wise and I've got a relatively narrow foot, I didn't want to go with a EE, but I'm afraid those two pressure points could cause me discomfort in the future. Do you think baking the skates will diminish the pressure and the pain ? Since it's a brand new skate and still pretty stiff, I'm sure it should do but I'd like to be sure before I bake them, just so I can send them back in case. Your help would be greatly appreciated !
I got the True custom. Fits great now but at first squeezed my foot and blood not escape
Does the Bauer supreme m1 mold well? I was feeling it, and I did feel some gel.
I know this video is old but what temp was that oven at? I live in Kentucky where going to a hockey pro shop is waaaay out of the question and I'll be ordering bake able skates soon and don't want to mess them up.
You were at the Huntsville source. Want to come to my lake and play some pond some time
I play roller hockey and got new skates like a week ago, can you bake them too?
Hey Jeremy I just bought my son a Bauer supreme s27 2018 for 180.00 should I bake them or not but the insole inside says Bauer Form fit so should I bake Them?
I supenate alot on my left foot. I wonder if heating a new pair of skates with my foot bent in the skate in a nonsupenation position. I wonder if that would work
I got bauer x100 few years ago, and they fit in at the first ride.
Hi Coach, just realized this store is in Huntsville. Do you know any store similar (with fitting) in Etobicoke/Mississauga? Thanks!
I have a pair of 2017 model pretty similar to the most recent. After a bad concussion, the first time I hit the ice again with a newly molded $800 pair of supremes. An alert sports shop worker noticed I was wearing a size too large after all these years. I needed a wider but smaller size fit so I did just that. However, although my balance isn't quite as steady after the concussion(police officer and I got pulled under a car by a drunk and was concussed) I am having problems adjusting to the smaller skate blades. I've played hockey all my life but never had this issue before. Is it out of the question to add a longer blade to the smaller sized skates I just bought? Advice would be very much appreciated,,,,,thanks, Rob
Hey man I just got the 1s upgrading from the s170. I developed a corn or a bone spur on my ankle. When I bake the 1s will that help with the pain I get do you think? Especially with all the added cushion in the 1s? Thanks!
Hey boss, i have some vapor x350’s and They are super stiff but the fit is awesome, little pain but just super stiff. Would they benefit from a bake?
I just got Bauer X400 skates and they're really comfortable except for the inside of my ankle bones, even though I'm wearing wool socks over my combat socks. I've hit the ice for about two hours with them so far and they're my first pair of personal skates, is there a way to fix that pain I'm having or is this a result of needing to break them in.
Hey that hockey tape is made in my town renfrew ontario
haha thats my dads home town he used to get tons of free tape from them
Hey Jeremy (or anyone else who has good advice). I recently bought a pair of skates and I didn't know that I wasn't supposed to move after the baking; I purchased my previous pair over 10 years ago, so I didn't remember the molding process. With my new pair, I started walking around the store after 5 minutes of staying still. What are the consequences of doing so?
.
waitin 4 profiling movie. ive read some bout it even profiled my skates already but im interested in ur opinion
Jeremy should I mould my Bauer s180's
I learned awhile back to stand after lacing up. This allows your standing foot profile to mold the boot. The shape of a foot seated vs. standing is different due to the pressure difference.
This sounds like a good idea, but don’t do this, after you bake skates the foot bed plastic becomes soft. Standing up in the skate will cause the footbed to warp you will also stress the materials and deform the skate.
@@xXBeastinGringoXxWell, it’s not recommended to do it in most case but I still did it to mine yesterday and they are in good shape and mold to my foot no problem, it’s for me better in my case cause it’s the position the most susceptible to be and I even retried my skates 24h after I baked them (this afternoon) and it’s super close to my feet anyway. Like I say, do it at your own risk ✨😳
Hey jeremy just trying to figure out how many sizes down people actually go...what shoe size are you and then skate size? Thanks
Hi Jeremy. Can non heat-moldable skates be punched out?
That’s a nice shop
hey Jeremy what do you do if a player is in between skate sizes? Like me for example I have Bauer supremes and one is a size 6 and the other is a 6.5. In my 6.5 I have a little more room and my toes just barely touch the top. In the size 6 my toes touch the top but I have extreme pain in my arch and it feels like the ball of my foot is getting squeezed. Some would say that the size 6.5 is about a half size two big but I know for a fact that a size 6 is two small.
Jeremy, I bought the new CCM 4092 tacks... Unfortunately, they say that the material is not heat moldable. Do you have any suggestions on what you would do? Besides go out and spend another $500 on better skates lol... Would punching out the hot spots be my best bet?
Is it better to have a tight fit or loose fit before you bake. A standard width I feel pressure on ball and pinky toe. The wide width felt loose. In vapor x 600s. Would I be better buying tight or the looser. Does baking tighten the skate or loosen the skate?
Jeremy I'm using vapor line skates and got them in the widest size and had to get my right skate punched out and still get pain. Would the supreme line be a better option without getting them punched out. Just want to have no pain on my right foot.
I bought some Bauer S160LE 2 years ago. I let them bake in the shop and they fitted like a second skin. They were so comfortable. Last year I only skated twice. This year I use them very often - but I have so much pain. Is it possible that they have lost their shape? Is it possible to bake them a second time or will it harm the skate?
