Bauer Supreme S190, (Regular width), Size 3 (US Shoe size 4) Used Goalie Skates

This is a pair of used BAUER SUPREME S190 GOALIE SKATES - Size 3 (shoe size 4.5) . The S190 Goalie Skates are a top performance line skate, that is cowling-free with a Vertexx Edge Holder. These innovations gives the wearer a performance advantage over traditional goalie skates by raising the overall skate height, giving them the ability to establish a push edge from a sharper angle. Per Bauer, this affords the wearer an incredible 10% increase in attack angle. This reduces how high the goalie has to raise their knee to push laterally from the butterfly, making them faster on ice, and better able to quickly close the gap under the pads. The Goalie Specific Toe Cap provides improved protection through added stiffness and thickness. By eliminating the cowling, these goalie skates drop considerably in weight, and these skates come with the "Lundqvist loop", which refers to a loop on the back of the skate that Henrik Lundqvist created for his own use. The loop is for goalies who wish to try a different strapping set up around their ankle can feed their pad's the boot strap through the ankle (instead of under it), which also mimics the feel used by Carey Price, given his tendency to remove the boot strap of his pad. This strapping technique allows the foot to more freely move in the pad and push off the ice, and reducing blowouts while still allowing the pad to follow your foot (eliminating a drawback of completely removing the bootstrap). If you get these skates, have your young goalie try the Lundqvist loop and see if they notice the difference! These skates were bought new and used only one season and are in great condition with lots of life left. At this price you are getting one of the best goalie skate brands available at a fraction of their new price. Please view the photos for a better depiction of the skates, which are sold as-is.
