Scythe Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) Hey guys.. i bought the CCM 6092's from GMonkey at the clearance price.. 66% off.. hoping they will fit better that the Bauer 4000's I'm using now that never felt right. Anyway is it best to bake before using them? I searched. Thanks in advance. Edited March 21, 2021 by Scythe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creasecollector Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Yep, bake them before using. Depending on who bakes the skates, you may need 1 more after to get them juuust right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of topic and there is always ten different answers and most of answers you should just pass. If you don't know what to do, go to real pro shop.

Scythe Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 I hate to say hoping they fit better then what I have now .. unless i fly yo a superstore i can't try things on. Only shop here in Atlanta has such a small selection.. i think they have maybe 2 models on display.. if they don't feel right when I get them I'll have to send them back.

Guessing here, but skate convection ovens aren't preheated either. You don't want the wire racks to be super hot when you put your skates on them as it'll melt the plastic/carbon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't want the wire racks to be super hot when you put your skates on them as it'll melt the plastic/carbon Skate ovens warm up very quickly and the maximum temperature is only circa 100C/210F. When I bake pro level skates, it takes 5min with a cold skate oven and if the oven is warm 30-60 seconds less. You have too much heat if you bake skates home with preheated oven and you have to turn it off. Skates wont melt if you have right temperature and time.

johncho Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Has anyone tried using a sous vide machine for their skates? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scythe Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 had the skates sharpened 1/2" and baked Tuesday afternoon and used them today at a pickup game. Wow! what a difference .. they feel incredibly good. It felt weird skating for about 5 minutes .. almost took a tumble off an outside edge but once we started the game they felt so good.. couldn't believe how much easier it was to get an edge to bite doing butterfly slides.. literally couldn't do them in the Bauer's. These skates are lighter than the Bauer's too. No aches or pains afterward.. very happy with these. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
