2020 True TF Pro Custom Hockey Skates
Exciting news from True Hockey – available August 14, the 2020 TF Pro Custom Skates are the latest custom iteration from this top-end Canadian ice skate maker. Launching alongside the TF9 and TF7 retail/stock skates (details below), the TF Pro’s feature the same True build, but feature an updated, new look. Continue reading this post for more details! :-D
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE TF PRO'S:
- BLADE: now a standard height of ¾” (19mm) – one set of STEP Stainless Steel will be included with each custom skate order.
-
HOLDER/STEEL SIZING: stainless steel and Blacksteel are now available in all sizes excluding 1, 1.5, 2 and 13+.
- If you require any of the listed sizes above, you will receive Bauer Lightspeed Edge Holders and LS3 steel.
-
COLOUR OPTIONS: choose from either “Blackout” (stock) or “Blue Stripe” (+$25.00 CAD upgrade).
- Colour upgrade options (red, True blue, white, and silver) are no longer available for player skates. Sorry for any inconvenience!
- GOALIE SKATES: at this time, there are no changes to the 1-piece or 2-piece skate options (including the side panel colour options).
- HOW DO I GET SCANNED? Our True Custom Skate-Fit Centre is located at our Vancouver Store (1-604-266-3316) – we have been 3D-scanning/fitting elite ice hockey players in True skates at this location since July 2017! Ask for the manager, John :-)
SAME BUILD, NEW LOOK:
- The TF Pro’s are purely a cosmetic upgrade (same core performance features/benefits as the 2019 True custom skate). As always, True custom skates are made in Canada!
- Clarino HydroFoam moisture-wicking liner has been added as an option (improved antimicrobial, wicking, and comfort properties).
- TF Pro Anatomical Fit updated tongue has been added as an option (lightweight, stiffer/more contoured design, anatomical/comfortable fit, modified T-Guard to protect against impacts and lace bite).
- The Tendon Guard is still removable/replaceable but will now feature an embedded screw (instead of a rivet).
