Coach Jeremy any update on this?
I wish I had a "skate guy" as knowledgeable as yours around where I live.....not even close.......
Whereabouts are you from. In canada you should be able to find a skate guru somewhere nearby
I have a few guys in NC that are pretty good. The guys at Skaters Edge in Greensboro are really good, then five hole sports. This dude seems next level though.
Same... the skating journey is an arduous one down in South Texas.
I'm in Texas and can't even find someone to tell me about baking skates and there are hockey rinks but it's mostly figure skating....
I've got low arches, and therefore have really bad pronation. I got a set of the CCM low arch inserts and a lot of my shin splints and arch pain has gone away. Easily worth the $50 they cost.
same here! love em !
Thanks! I’ll have to check it out
oh wow, really? I'm cramping so badly on the skates. I thought it might be I have low arch as well. I gotta check them out. Thanks!
Just a heads up for anyone looking into Superfeet: You don't have to get the yellow ones! Those are for people with really high arches, but people consistently think those are the only ones you can use in hockey skates... WRONG! I have flat wide feet. Someone recommended me those yellow ones and I was in so much pain it was unbearable. I researched and found that Superfeet come in all shapes and sizes. I picked up a pair of black ones (for flat feet) and I've been using them ever since. Make sure you look into which one fits your feet best. I think all of their footbeds would work in hockey skates. You just have to cut down the toe part to size 👍🏻
Thank you! I too have flat feet, so I recently picked up a pair of the yellow Superfeet, thinking that it would help maintain my arch or something like that. They are painful at times... Needless to say that I'll soon be getting the black ones.
FGFsMo Is there a specific black one made just for skates or are they generic. Because my feet are super flat. And I just don't know what insoles to get.
No I think the only one made specifically for hockey skates is the yellow one which is weird because it's for such a specific kind of foot. All the other colors and types are made for shoes, but they work perfectly in my skates. I've had no problem. You'll just need to take the stock inserts that come with your skates, pull them out, and then cut the superfeets to the same size so they fit properly.
FGFsMo I appreciate the reply. I'll pick some up next week at my local hockey shop!
Superfeet's website doesn't seem to indicate which insoles are best for low-mid-high arches....how did you find the black to be best for you? I'm in the low-mid arch range myself.
These are black but also padded if you want extra padding in your skate.....ever try these?

keep up the great work. I'm learning so much about the sport. my 8 year old son and I watch your videos every week. thanks!
Those CCM custom support med arch insoles with Powerfoot inserts = biggest gamechanger to date. So much more power in my stride
I have a bony protrusion in my instep on each foot (similar to accessory navicular syndrome,) the little bit of pronating while skating in stock foot bed would rub that protrusion against the sidewalls of the skate boot, and after 2 hours, I'd be in considerable pain and with a nasty blister over the protrusion. Got the yellow Superfeet and the arch support (I have medium/average arches) supinated my natural stance in the skates just a little bit and I never had a problem with protrusion digging into the sidewalls ever again. Once went back and used an old pair of skates with stock footbeds for 45 minutes and I had blisters so bad I couldn't skate for a week. Superfeet have made me a believer (and damn things last forever, I've had the same pair for 5+ years).
Giampaolo Fini i would just like to back this up, exactly same problem as you. As far as my feet shape is concerned, i still get a small bump after using superfeet but superfeet definitely alleviates the pain from accessory navicular
I love my carbon fiber Speed Plate 2 footbeds. The most important thing I noticed from the regular Vapor 1X footbeds and Supreme 2SPro footbeds is that the Speed Plate took away a lot of negative space around the arch. The heat moldable footbeds are great. I had one footbeds out of the four speedplates that was wedged and created a stabbing feeling in my left arch but I heat molded just the footbeds because my boots were molded and all is well now. No negative space and I feel efficient on the ice
I've got high arches and even on brand new S29 Bauer skates my feet were hurting on the arches. I saw the Bauer speed plates on sale and grabbed a pair, just popped them in without baking them and they feel 1000x better. If you have high arches and your feet hurt at the arch definitely consider these to aleviate that pain.
2 year update. The initial Bauer speed plate v1 cracked, and so I moved on to version 2 of the speed plates. Did a proper bake with the new ones and I think they are the best insoles for high arch support. The Superfeet & CCM orthromove are a great alternative but I think the stiffness of the bauer especially in the arch gives you more solid feel.
My son loves his Bauer speed plates . They did crack twice due to a high rivet on the heal of the skate . However Bauer did warranty them through a local dealer so there was no wait time . The rivet was fixed for free also .
I personally own the Bauer Speed plates and the CCM mid Arch and high Arch insoles and my personal favorite is the CCM with the high Arches..
Now to clarify, both The Bauer and CCM insoles are really good but I lean toward the CCM because of over all comfort and being in 40+ years old I'm looking to be a bit more comfy when I'm out there.
The heal is more squishy on the CCM where the Bauer is harder and more sensitive to what's happening on the ice and is harder through out the foot print.
So if your going for feel and what's happening and not worried about comfort as much then I'd say go with the Bauer speed plate which has the advantage in the Arch of which really gives you the most connection to the skate to the inner side wall giving you the least amount of negative space for when your switching back and forth from your inner edge to your outer edge.
You just have a slight advantage in your confidence over the CCM.
I was having more of an issue being comfortable on the balls of my feet both hurt regardless but I find the CCM has a slightly more comfort in the heal and the ball and toe areas of your feet.
The heal being the part that sticks out the most with being more comfortable,your ball and toes being almost unnoticeable in difference in comfort but in skating over time slightly noticeably better.
With the CCM it's just ever so slightly noticeable in being not as connected to the side wall and for what ever reason I put them in my skates and go and they are ready,whee the speed plates you NEED to heat them up and get them right or they will put a hurting you.
I also found that I had to reheat the left one like five times and right one heated pulled out of oven put in skate put on skate tightened up stood up did skate pee pee dance and right was good to go but left had cooled to much before I could get it right and ended up using my wife's hair dryer to re-warm it and then tweet the trouble areas so in hind-site I would do them separately.
This is awesome, thank you! Gave you a heart for the "skate pee pee dance" lol
I was talking to my local pro shop here and they said I should right a review,so I jumped at the chance to put it up here! Thanks for digging it man! I love the work you do on your whole series and since I started playing Hockey last year I've been following your stuff with great results so thank you again!!
The girls love the Hockey Pee Pee Dance drives em crazy so next time your walking in front of that hotty at the the rink,show em what your working with!!
Great advice to bake one at a time. I will do that when I get to that point.
Where is this guy located? I have a plane ticket to purchase
The medium CCM ones really helped me out with my CCM 3052 Tacks.
Superfeet yellow and carbon in every pair of skates I own.
Aggressive Seba inline skates, Seba freestyle inline, Bauer Supreme ice skates and Bauer inline skates
Hey coach I brought the Cur Rex hi-support for my skates and I can honestly say in my mid 30’s I have never skated or felt so comfortable on skates in my life
Big hello to Glen Sharpley from an old North Stars fan! You had great flow, from head to toe!
This seriously is going to save my feet. THANK YOU!
Thanks for all the info, I live in Cali so there's not too many sources for hockey gear. I watch your videos to help decide what gear to buy my son 👍
I have what's called flat foot and I can tell you that fitting any skates is a pain... So I decided to use ccm footbed and according to measurement it's the Medium one. And I can tell you, that's like heaven and hell. Using ccm med footbed in ccm ribcore skates - already most comfortable skates feels a lot better. I feel more steady and stable and just a lot more comfort and this definitely has effect on performance, too.
I need insoles with arch support as I have dicky knees. I had yellow Superfeet but they gave me lace bite. The problem is that they raise the heel, and pull back the toes, thereby changing the fit of the skate. I now have Bauer speed plates and they really support the arches. I also feel my feet are more in touch with the ice. And since they do not raise the heel, the skate still fits well. I think they are excellent. But as the chap in the video says, unless you need arch support, stick with the stock insoles.
WalksWithTurkeys I got lacebite then bought super feet and it helped with heat mold and lace bite gel
Speed plate helped my a lot with my accessory navicular bones
my two cent: the superfeet does enhance performance. It has a stabilising cup which helps locking your heel and the cup noticeably put you in a higher position for better angle of attack on the ice
Great video Jeremy, I have used the CCM mid arch in my last skates and found them to be brilliant. Very comfortable and really felt a difference. I've got Supremes now and got the speed plate I did try it initially with CCM bed but swapped over to the speedplate and definitely see a difference in comfort and performance and foot fatigue. I love the speedplate and the ccm footbeds but feel they are different in terms of what they offer you as a player. The speedplate looking to up performance and the ccm comfort.
I use the bauer speed plates that came in the 1x and I love them. I have been interested in trying those ccms but until I need new skates I'll stick to the speed plates. They really make your skate feel solid on your foot with no negative space. Definitely worth the money. Also I'm not sure if I'd want any gel pad or soft material under my feet. Seems like it might decrease energy transfer but idk thats just my two cents. Are we still going to see a radius profiling video?
when i bought my supertacks they recommended that i get the med ccm ones and they are the most comfortable skates
Personally, I didn't see a lot of help from the Superfeet, but I've absolutely loved the Bauer Speedplates in my Nexus skates.
An unrelated side note, they can be a little tough to work out of your skates when you're drying them. They like to wedge themselves in tight.
I have high arches, I always put inserts into my shoes. I wonder how hard it'll be to find an arch support that'll fit my tiny size 5 skates lol
This is so important. Thank You!
I have achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis in both feet from working on concrete floors. This info will keep me coaching, I hope
I have very flat and wide feet. Superfeet yellow helped my edge control and alleviated knee pain. I have also tried the CCM medium arch insoles all in my RBZ and while they are OK, I like the more firm "locked in" feeling I get from my Superfeet. The CCM custom insoles are too spongy and the stock ones do not provide the right level of alignment correction that I require.
I have flat wide feet too. Did you try other skates before settling on the RBZ's?
I am getting close to pain free skating after trying Bauer Nexus D's & Speedplates....though the inner arch is still kinda high/annoying.
i use superfeet, its perfect
I use the superfeet and they work fine :)
I've always had trouble with the Bauer arch digging into my foot. Got the speed plate and no more pain.
Man I have the same problem. Maybe I should get some speed plates
NEEDED THIS
I've been to 4 different hockey stores that sell the various insoles and the one thing they universally agree on is the speed plates are trash. i enjoy my super feet, there are many options not just the one style as shown here.
Man just go superfeet for most people. They offer comfort plus support and they have been doing it for years. Only get those Bauer and CCM insoles in the night end product. I played for years and without them and I’m a severe pronator and it changed how I felt at the end of a game. Plus put them in my shoes because like skates the insoles only protect my feet from the stitching and shoes
should i get a footbed, or get my boot punched out, i have one spot in my left foot, on the outside middle part of my foot, which after 10 minutes of skating it starts to hurt
I have high arches and got speed plates, my problem now is more that it hurts on top around midfoot, instep? Don´t know how to fix this issue.
Warm the skates again with something ontop there so it doesnt make preassure like it does today?
What about the toes rubbing on the boots causing pain?
Are your super feet insoles the newer ones or the older ones? I was just wondering if they felt any different from each other.
What insoles are the blue bauers from? Not the speedplates
Hey Jeremy, can you bake skates with the CCM insoles installed, or do you need to put them in after you bake but before you put them on thanks?
I had my skates baked one time with a standard footbed then switched to super feet then they got baked again with the super feet inside
If I'm getting pain in my inner arches, should I really just look into spot heating/molding there? Maybe pushing that area down/out to make room for my wide feet there?
I use Dr Sholls gell inserts they work great and they are way cheaper
I wannnaaa see a footbed review viddd
so I haven't noticed an updated vid, whats your thoughts on footbeds now?
I got those ccm med with my ccm tacks attackframes
I just got a pair of hockey roller skates. My foot is hurting bad! The bottom of my feet almost feel like cramping after 20 minutes on the skates. I'm pretty sure the boot fits me fine. Maybe it's just I'm not used to skating in general, but the area around the ball of my feet is very sore. Maybe I need to just tough it out for a few weeks to see if it goes away?
I swear by superfeet. They are awesome and well worth the $50!!!
My friend had the speed plate and they cracked right before a big game
Do you need to bake ur skates again when you insert new footbeds?
Trying the high arch blue CCM, better than others tried, challenge is having a 12.5A shoe size. Skates hurt first couple of minutes, then better after a retie. This is for recreational skating. Any thoughts appreciated. Ken
My skates are painful because they are too narrow, I have really skinny feet so I can't understand why they are made so narrow. So would baking help make them wider?
Or maybe it's the footbed thats really narrow, it squeezes my heel from the sides, it feels like there are 2 pencils in my skate. They are top of the line Alkali skates so this really surprises me
If you have foot problems or pain get custom sport orthotics for your skates.
I haven't been able to skate because I experienced foot pain every time. Later on, I realised it was because of my being flat-footed. What would be an ideal footbed when there's no hockey shop in my country?
i have always used Graf skates but now after my knee surgery i have pain on the bottom of my foot when i skate
just found this video after searching foot pain in skates, any advice for dealing with foot pain in just one foot? my left foot feels like its in a vice! pain from side of my big toe to side of my pinky toe and its awful.
hey Jeremy, I've done heat molding for my skates twice now and I sometimes get pain in the insole/instep of my foot. Would any of these footbeds help with that you think?
Did you ever figure out your insole/instep pain? Thats where I hurt too....thinking about spot heating/molding but havent tried out all the insoles yet....just Speedplates & Superfeet.
So i brought it to my skate shop (just a random Sportchek), and you can actually SEE the hole where my bone is pushing up against the leather so hard it makes me get blisters and pains. (See medial cuneiform) So all they did was punch it out a little further and it feels GREAT now!
My skates have bumps in them above the side of the ankles and they are stiff as hell, and the right foot it's hitting a pressure point or something. Feels like a bruise but it's not and I've never had any problems until I felt this after skating on them just once. Do most skates have this stiff bump???
I have a serious accessory navicular bone pain and it’s killing me
great video! I almost require an aftermarket insole due to the size of my skate being a 13-14 and wearing a size 15-16 in sneakers. Hope to see a review on which is the best for you.
did you do the test video?
I was searching for it. 2017 come on man.
I have flat feet and mt skates always seem to hurt in practices no matter how long i've worn the skates. Its annoying because I cant enjoy skating cause feel hurt so bad that I literally can barely stand in them. Ive tried super feet before and they really only made it hurt worse and I had to get off and take them out. What might make my feet not hurt?
I don't have pain from my skates because they're baked, but I have a foot disease that makes my arch really bad and I don't know if I should get one should I?
Could you make a vid about profiling blades?
Ryan Schillinger it's the 3rd video in this series
Any news yet regarding what you though gave the most comfortable arch support?
I have supination issue with both feet. Which should I get?
Jeremy i have flat feet which insole should i get. For my skates that i currently use i take the insole out to help with my flat feet
Super helpful video
Nice video as always man, I had a question my feet are completely flat any idea what kind of skate and bed I should use
Superfeet insoles - black. See above.
i have speedplates in my skates but i feel like they rock slighty in the boot (came standard with 1s), also want my heel to sit slighty higher to give a more agressive stance would any of these do that?
Power foot is a life saver
i think i also need a chat with glen ,
Is there a difference in player soles vs goalie soles?
Hey Coach Jeremy,
What's the order of customization? I just bought new skates and was wondering what steps to take. Do I heat up and fit the skates first and then the foot beds, or foot beds and then skates? Or can the skates and foot beds be heated together and fit at the same time?
That's an awesome question. I was wondering the exact same thing. I hope to hear an answer soon.
I have pain in the ball of my left foot behind the big toe...was told it could be metatarsalgia and to roll out my arch. Anyone else have this problem?
Custom orthotics from the doctor is the way to go. Cast a mold of your feet and make them custom in about a month. 600 for 2 pairs and my insurance covers 500 lol
Any options for people with different size feet? I broke my left foot and it's permanently about a half size larger than my right
Josh Nemitz custom skates
Any update to this experiment?
Do you remove the base footbed out of the Bauer 2X or do you remove it and put the moldable footbed right on top of the rivets?
Yes, you absolutely do! That is a lesson I learned the hard way.
is it the same with goalie skates?
Great stuff.
Would this work in shoes
My issue is arch pain after a long warm up. Never when I just throw the skates on, only after. As if my feet were to swell after the body gets going. Superfeet and/or punching my skates had no effect. Bought new skates a bit wider with little change but now I just deal with it. Any suggestions?
Which one is best for over pronation?
thehomez Anything with good arch support, I have high arches and I use the mk.2 speed plates which are a huge improvement on the mk.1’s. They give great support and a nice custom fit too
Should goalie get insoles for goalie skates?
do they fit a youth size 13?
Where is his shop located?

Any one have any red hot tips to stop foot numbness? I got a pair of vapor x500s (my first pair of skates ever) and whether I really crank them tight or just tight enough so I feel supported my feet always go numb after about half an hour of skating. I've tried lots of different variations of lace tightening to see if anything helps but I always get numb feet. The boot feels like a perfect fit in the sense that my toes are just brushing the toe cap and my feet aren't squished but also have very little room to move. Do you think aftermarket inner soles would help me much? Cheers, any help is appreciated
Sounds like you may be lacing up wrong, make sure the lace go in from the outside in, thus pulling boot eyelets in more without the inside out which pulls the foot in but not the eyelets, check out some vids on how to lace up properly, it's meant to make a big difference
I have speed plates
sick vid
if you got a new insole would it be best to get your skates rebaked?
No, as far as I know the only insoles that require baking are the bauer speed plates. In which you just bake them by themselves then take them out and put them in your skates and lace em up and let them set for a few minutes then you're good to go.
I think he's referring to....if you're foot is aligned differently due to a new foot insert, should you rebake your skates due to your new foot positioning.
Good question....I think it's worth it, though some say not to bake your skates too many times.
I have the speed plats and the super feet lol
Hey jeremy, The thing hanging behind you in this video with The goal on, how can i get one of those?
It's a SportScreen. I made a video on me installing it ua-cam.com/video/bT_TN2mMguA/v-deo.html
This is so cool
Nice!
I have superfeet
I just bought the super feet like 2 hours ago lol
would ccm footbeds fit inside bauer skates?
hawkeye 951 I would assume so but they may require slight trimming in some cases just because they’re not designed with Bauer skates in mind. If you’re looking for new beds tho I’d have a look at the mk.2 Speed Plate from Bauer, I use them and they’re super supportive and you can bake them at home
@@joewhitehouse9714 thanks and does the mk.2 come in different size arches because i have really flat feet
hawkeye 951 I believe they’re just one one size, I have high arches so I’m not sure how much the arch will flatten out, but I’d probably recommend just going with a footbed designed for flat feet rather than counting on high arch beds to flatten out if you get what I mean
