Hello everyone,
I am looking at getting into some, more serious hockey, and with that, I'm thinking of upgrading my equipment. But I don't exactly want to pay top prices. I don't really have money in the budget for the top top.
Example: I have seen a set of skates, CCM Tacks 9080, which apparently were the top of line skates for 2018? It seemed to be a good skate, from what I've read.
But now with the CCM Tacks 9090 skates out (which I think are this year's top of line skate?) the 9080 is much cheaper. I can't imagine there being a huge difference between the 9080 and the 9090 skates. Does anyone have an insight on this, like how they market this and if there's really a difference in the product?
Thanks
*Mods, sorry if this belongs somewhere else, or already exists!
