The new Bauer Vapor X2.9R roller hockey skates are performance level inline skates designed for players looking for elite level features at a lower price. These skates are a great choice of high performing skates for players playing 1-2 times a week in mid-high level hockey games.
Boot Construction These X2.9R hockey skates are built with Bauer's new PERFORM Flex System. The skates are engineered with a pro level, 3D Lasted Tech Mesh boot construction with X-rib technology, which is usually reserved for their top of the line models. This quarter package offers maximum ankle and heel support with their Comfort Edge padding and Abrasion guard. The X-rib technology increases acceleration and stability with the use of extra stiffness in the heel.
Tongue The soft 48-ounce, two piece felt tongue is another pro level feature added to the performance level X2.9R inline skates. This skate tongue keeps the top of the foot protected and comfortable throughout the game.
Liner/Internal Padding The Hydrophobic Microfiber liner, alongside the Plush Foam ankle padding, provide a comfortable and dry skate that is secured in place. The thicker plush foam also provides a snug ankle wrap for the Vapor fit profile. The protective ankle foam delivers premium performance, enhanced comfort and improved fit.
Chassis/Wheel The Bauer performance inline skates feature a Hi-Lo Aluminum chassis, a versatile and lightweight frame designed to help propel players to their full potential with their aggressive angle of attack and low center of gravity. These roller hockey skates use Labeda Union 74A (X-Soft) wheels and Hi-Lo Abec-9 608 bearings to offer increased agility, impressive speed and responsive grip to keep you VAPORQuick.
Fit/Sizing The Bauer Vapor skate is a low-volume skate and is designed to fit a narrower foot. The Vapor skates feature a tapered fit with a standard toe box, slightly narrow forefoot, and a narrow fit in the ankle and heel area.
