    Picked them up yesterday after fitting multiple boots. Glad I came because I almost bought a different boot online that hurt so bad when I tried them in their shop. Thanks for the help.

    I don't agree with the statement that you can replace the 45° buckle with tighter lacing. The tighter you lace, the more you flatten the arch of your foot, which leads to several problems. With the 45° buckle you achieve stability without these problems.

      He didnt say to replace the buckle with laces, he said he recommends to remove the toe strap cause its utterly useless even if its a feature on every slalom skates, and to replace the laces with waxed laces (I would 100% change those laces) and finished by saying you can remove the buckle and only rely on good laces (a bit like the themskate 909). But I would keep the buckle because I like my skates thight !

      If you use the special lacing technique he mentions, a hockey lacing technique, it helps for foot placement (heel lock) and tightening without flattening the arch. Worth looking up and using, even if you like the 45 buckle because it is more focused and more adjustable than the buckle.

    Anybody out there who gutted the evo's?
    I did with CJ and it got tighter... I tried with the Kaze (never try 🥲) and can't even put my foot in anymore at a size bigger than my other skates...
    So I don't dare on my tight Evo's, even though the lining on one boot is torn in heel area (after very few sessions 😑) already

    You didn't say much about differences. For instance, the liner of the Sam model seems different, especially in the front part under the laces. It seems thicker and better shaped. I've already got an hc evo and my experience is that the liner gets thinner time by time and could hurt, because you start feeling the hard structure of the boot/caff touching your ankles... I would suggest doing a more specific review of those models. By the way, I heard the full customizable hc evo (not mentioned here) has gotten a thicker, hence more comfortable, liner. Is that true? This is something I would like to learn from a review. Thanks and keep working on 💪🏼

    either you use the straps and the laces are just decorative, or you use the laces and the straps are useless.. you should recommend both options.. personally Ive tried both ways and I think the straps are quicker, but laces are more comfortable

    I would really love to hear some other shops divide softboot and hard boot like you do it. Every other page sorts skates into soft and hard depending on their shell material....
    And if you would go with powerslides own naming, they say hybrid boot because it has soft material outside but still harder components for more stability inbetween thode soft materials....
    Like my powerslide kaze is nearly as stiff and hard as my powerslide next no mater the outside material. Thats why they call it hybrid.

    • @Thisissoul
      @Thisissoul  11 місяців тому

      The term hardboot and softboot are a bit misleading because of the words hard/soft in the definition. In its base it just meand that it has a replacable liner and or that it has an integrated liner. Instead people fockus more on the hard/soft words in the definition. If you go by that then any carbon skate would be the hardest boots and they are not because of the integrated liner.
      In the end of the day it best to avoid the terms hardboots / softboots at all because they are so misleading. More about it here: www.thisissoul.com/blogs/buyers-guide/hardboot-vs-softboot

      Use the type of antifungal spray bowling alleys use. Only thing you can do. It's a natural trade-off of having a built-in liner. Just like with hockey skates you get the lightest possible construction along with the stiffest possible construction, but that has the trade-off of a non-removable liner that is impossible to wash.

  • @pit9623
    @pit9623 5 місяців тому

    the top and bottom buckles are so annoying. You can't get out at the bottom and it just gets in the way at the top when you put it on and take it off. My Sebas have great buckles that don't break as quickly (or at all) as the Powerslide trash. The buckles also rattle. I can only recommend the FR Spin to everyone if they want to buy a great skate for comparatively little money.

    • @Thisissoul
      @Thisissoul  5 місяців тому

      for sure, I would take the ankle buckle off and just use the laces
      also the front velcro strap is useless.
