Pleyt Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Hey, I bought my first heat moldable hockey skates, and backed them. Are there any characteristics of the shoe that I can notice I have done it correctly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podein25 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Stick a butter knife in and see if it comes out moist. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will still take several times of wearing them on the ice before they get broken in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it comes back out clean, it's fully baked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually a bit of an inside joke among Flyer fans and a previous coach who like to use baked cake metaphors. Anyway, welcome!

I'd be a lot more helpful if I knew the actual answer. I think the important question is, what's your lace count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruxpin Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Just now, Pleyt said: ?? Exactly. I'm just being playful and this is as much about entertaining the board as much as anything. Years ago in a discussion of I don't know what--wasn't relevant to lace count, just typical fan exchange of opinions--wanted to prove their knowledge and my lack of it by demanding to know my lace count on my skates. It became a running joke that actually has long ago died, but this thread seemed like a good opportunity to resurrect it. Again, sorry, really not helpful to your question but sadly I really don't know. Welcome to the board and good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
