Hello guys! I'm Alex from Denmark, I like going around the ice just for fun and a play a bit hockey with my friends. I just recently bought my first pair of skates, Bauer Vapor x200. I do see my self as a complete beginner, and I'm used to just rent a couple of cheap plastic skates for the friend games at night.
The rental ones are those with 3 clamps in pure plastic, they are really uncomfortable. So i decided to drive around 80km to a real hockey shop.
The clerk showed me some pretty okay skates to a nice beginner price, Bauer vapor x30 i think. He only had size 9 left though, and they simply felt too big.
In shoes I'm usually a size 9, but those skates just felt too big. The clerk recommended an online shop which had the x200 in size 8. I went a bought them. Couple days ago i received them. I have been on the ice a couple times for some hours. It seems that my right foot keeps falling in on the ankle, and it hurts, cramp feeling. Very annoying.
I'm right "footed". So it seems kinda weird its my "strong" ankle/foot that's falling in. I do like the narrow heel fit in the vapor though. Do you guys have any suggestions to what is causing the inward bend?
I can link some pics of the sole and fit of the skate if that helps? For me it just seems weird its only 1 foot, but i dunno I'm just a "noob". I hope you guys can help me.
Kind Regards Alex
