CURRENT WAIT TIME APPROX. 20-24 WEEKS.

 

lots of retailers have express slots with Brians that will be much faster than that.  I should have my set by mid November.

ordered this set a few days ago.  All the blue areas will be blue primo and the mesh stuff will be swapped to blue primo as well.

Wondering if anyone has any good ideas about how to best use ProLaces with the Konekts. @TheGoalNet previously posted a solution using an extra loop through the lower buckle, but I was hoping to avoid adding that extra step.

Using the ProLaces normally, it seems there is a risk that they will slip down and over the toe. Only idea I had was to stretch them to go through the rear hole of the holder and up so that the velcro tabs are between the two buckles, but then I'm a little concerned that they could accidentally flip the buckle forward during play. Any suggestions would be great.

I just tied a loop of skate lace through the fabric loop on the tongue and run my prolaces through that so it keeps them from falling down.  simple and works just fine.

the added ankle mobility is awesome.  took a few minutes to get used to just because you are so used to a certain level of pushback when trying to make certain movements.

If anyone is curious, I mounted the holders from my True custom skates and there is a tiny bit of overhang at the front of the skate(size 8 ) due to there being more plastic on the True than the Bauer has.

Got my Konekts last week and used them for 2 skates the same day I baked them.  There was some pressure in a couple of spots for sure.  I used them again yesterday after swapping the insoles back to my superfeet and they felt really good. 

that customizer is BRUTAL and full of bugs, I fought with it for hours to finally get everything to work

anyone know if sizing is the same as the Axis 1(everything runs bigger than other pads similar to the 20.1) or is it more normalized and the same as Eflex now?  will be trying to get sizing as close to a medium Hyperlite as possible.

My set is in... will get some pics going. Got them ahead of the tech explanation, so still have to keep details close to the vest.

are you able to share any info regarding when orders will open??

I love the asymmetrical graphic so much I may talk myself into dealing with speed skin pads again.  

looks like customizer isnt coming until late May still...anyone have info about what the custom options will be on the pads? curious if I will be able to get them soft enough for my liking.

when I get these skates I will likely put the True Shift Attack holders w/ 4mm steel on them.

I just got my set and i have the same problem. I was waiting 6 months and now its grey/blue and not silver i dont now what to do. It pisses me off 

Best option is to have the retailer complain to Bauer to see if they will replace them. I saw a recent set yesterday where the silver was correct so they must have fixed the issue

@Telfo New set overall looks a lot better.

Though I don't mind the colour of the original.

Yeah I actually like the grey blue color, issue was mainly it not matching the other silver areas at all

What was wrong with your first set? And what's changed?

The “silver” color was not at all silver. See the customizer compared to the final product. Luckily they replaced them and let me keep the messed up set until the new ones arrived. Apparently most early sets with silver printed on them came out this grey blue color

Finally got my replacement set in yesterday. Couldn’t be happier. Also noticed a few aesthetic changes they must have made since the early sets were made 

the red one is certainly better, still a pretty weird graphic though.

I misread your post. I thought you had Kenesky do a variation of their strap specifically for the Ultrasonics. My mistake.

I can't imagine it would break. Even if it did, I imagine it'd be like regular pads at that point. lol

OK i get what you were asking now. The kenesky professor strap usually has a wider connector that wraps around the assembly lace, I had them make it smaller so it would fit onto the stock connection points on the pads

@Telfo What exactly did you get changed?

the professor strap is completely different from the one that comes with the pads

Thought you guys might be interested in the Kenesky professor straps I had made for my Ultra Sonic pads. They altered the attachments a bit from what they usually sell to fit into the stock connection points on the pads. So much better than that flimsy complicated strap they come with.

I was told the other day that I need both hips shaved down due to bone spurs/extra bone growth causing FAI.  I’m 35 and this thread is terrifying me

Anyone else experiencing delays with the shipping of their prolaces? I ordered mine almost a month ago and they still haven’t arrived

it took about a month for mine to arrive recently.

I saw on the customizer there is a 3mm poron at the base of the palm, did you go with that?

I was trying to figure out what that is myself, I’m guessing it makes that beige poron section of the palm thicker?

Is the amount of flex in the boots pretty similar even with the slightly different angle?

man the customizer is buggy as hell.  the desktop version doesnt give you the option to change the supreme logo color and the mobile version gives you all the options for both graphics.  Also no way to change the lacing color on the welting to black, but I am pretty sure thats an option if @TheGoalNet set is any indication.
