6 Months later! CCM FT6 Pro RETAIL skates review - First impression of CCM FT6 Pro CUSTOM! 

I'm going month 4 on my FT6 Pro's and love them. Only getting better. Been playing with the STEP Blacksteel, Bladetech DLC, and Flare Blades. Flare by far favourite but love the other two as well. All different feels!

Can you make best stick of 2023 😁

I appreciate the insight but want to hear comparisons between customs, not comparing the custom to the stock. How does the different manufacturing hold up compared to True’s hand-made process? What happened to your Trues Tommy? The CCMs are more expensive but are they worth the extra money or is it just the name? Can’t wait for Chris’ video!

I'd love to see a custom vs custom. Seems like that would probably be True vs CCM. I haven't seen you guys talk about custom Bauer skates... but maybe I missed that. I have an older pair True Customs, and when I put those on the first time it was mind blowing how well they fit compared to my ancient Graf's. But since then they've softened up a bit.. I just don't know when it's worth the ridiculous price tag.

what happened to your pair of True SVH Custom?

I'm a Graf G7 fan can't wait to see what Graf is going to come out this year

I couldn’t agree with Tommy more, I’m skating atleast 12 hours a week on top of playing high level hockey been playing 13 years. was changing skates at start of every season due to soft boot, got my ccm custom plus skates about a month ago and omg the best purchase I’ve made! the fit it unreal, first time in 5 years I’ve not had any foot pain coming off the ice, they fit like fluffy socks no issues whatsoever. I also got stiffened forefoot and eyelets and you can defo tell the difference to retail it’s great

FT6 Pro custom VS True SVH!?

How about them wrapped CCM customs in the FT-4 colour scheme Tommy?

Hello, this video and a lot of your other videos mention baking skates for a better fit. Can you please do a video (or at least comment here) with your recommended process to bake skates at home? I know that True Hockey did a video on how to do this at home but I cannot find anything related to CCM or Bauer skates. I think the process for non-carbon fiber skates must be different. Thank you. Tom

When are you gonna release Tommy's camo jersey for sale?

Man when I was a in ha i had a pair of Bauer vapor 8s they lasted about 8 years of playing alot then the final did what what you said I always thought Bauer were the best best skates

ft6 pro or hyp2rlite??

where can i get some costume ft6 pro skates?

How do you go through top of the line skates in 6 months? What in the world are you doing in them lol.

Completely unrelated question, for anyone who wants to pipe in: I just got a pair of Vapor X4s, long time inline roller hockey player, first time in ice skates in years. I've skated them once, public session at my local rink. They fit just absolutely perfectly, my foot didn't move a fraction of an inch in an hour of skating, but circulation was fine, no hotspots, etc. I weigh 190 to 200 lbs, so I thought a slightly less aggressive sharpen would be good, so I went 5/8". The runners they came with are have a 10' radius - which I believe is pretty aggressive. Will I likely need a grippier sharpen to compensate for the relatively small area of contact with the ice? I'm going to put in a good few hours before I change anything up, but any thoughts on the situation? Thanks in advance.

Staybabilaty?

Custom CCM vs custom True

Too heavy. Pass.

Donut foam around the ankle bones - interesting! I have several "donut footsies" made marketed by Powerslide for inline skating - they help me to skate a few kilometers more without pain. Comfy, snug fit, better power transfer. 😃🤩

Are you guys going to do a review on custom bauer hyperlite 2 / shadow skates?

I wish the ft6 pro skate was just blacked out at retail…the red just doesn’t go good with a lot of uni’s out there. If that red was blacked out I would have copped a pair, but I went with Machs instead. Also when I tried the ft6 pro’s on I could feel where the toe cap connects with the rest of the boot, like I could feel it almost pinching on the outside of my big toe and pinky toe.

I’ve moved from the FT4 Pro and FT1 to then AS-V Pro the the same reason Tommy was saying, about skates going soft. He’s right about how the boot likes to cave in on those more explosive moves… I like the stiffness of the ASV pro, which is retained

I went through all the reviews on RU-vid about this skates and they looked perfect, so I bought them (luckily for 1/3 of the full price). Yesterday I've took them to hockey training for first time and I felt really terrible. They are heavy as hell, at least my feelings was like that. Training before I was in my Grafs PK7900P and I've felt as bird. And I was not even able to do turns properly - skates was just sharpened, not profiled (my friend forgot on me), maybe that's why, but my non-profiled Bauers are pretty OK. I would like to hear if someone of you guys had same feeling as me. Let see after blade profiling. By the way, here are weights of all my skates w/o blades (Bauer Supreme M4 size 10 Fit 2 - 750g, Graf PeakSpeed 7900P size 10,5 R - 714g, CCM JetSpeed FT6 Pro size 10 R - 895g).

I had Bauer customs, they cost me most of a grand. Then I moved to True TF9 at a fraction of the price and the improvement in my edgework was night and day. A grand for a pair of skates is a huge sum of money, and customs don’t have a 30 day return warranty. Plus not many shops in the UK do CCM. Puckstop are now Bauer only, HockeyStation have limited stock, The Ice Barn are True only.

I have those skates
