Ive got Tuuk Lightspeed on my skates and they are really light and good to skate on. Ive had skates with Tuuk Custom+ on them and they are quite good aswell, but not as light as Lightspeeds. The only thing though with lightspeeds is that the blades snap quite easilly, and not all the blades are put on right when they are made, and some of them bend in the middle.

Lightspeeds are nice agree, however if you look now most professional players have fitted their skates with Tuuk customs+

Very true as long as you like them we can't make you buy them can we. We can tell you our experience's but its all down to personal preferences. I went into the shop today and they quoted me around £81 fitted for lightspeeds. My mate who's not that good at hockey want to get some on his white grafs!!

However 81 is the wrong price as after you left she asked the other woman who said that they are going to stop selling the perferated ones. They are £100 fitted including hockey discount. However they wil not fit them on Graf 700 series!! Shame looks like you will keep your cobras!

I'm not that bothered about getting lightspeeds put on. It would have been nice but my cobras seem to be holding up alright. Not like t-blades.

I like Tuuk customs, but i have recently seen a picture of some black ones fitted to some Graf skates. Now that looked horrible and whoever did it should be ashamed.

I have lightspeed on my 8090's. The blade broke within the first game! BUT, i believe Bauer put a cheaper blade on them to start with, as the replacement ones i bought seemed a lot stronger and slightly thicker. You have to make sure you tighten the blade properly aswel, if they are lose and you take a puck on it, it has more chance of breaking.
As for T Blades, i had them on my old skates, Graf 709s. They are good if you only skate on public sessions, but are useless for hockey. They are weak, i never felt comfortable on my edges as the whole holder felt like it was going to snap. they also made me skate a lot slower. as soon as i got my 8090s i noticed i was skating a fair bit faster.

I really like my lightspeeds, i'd never have T-blades, they seem far to weak IMO!
As luke said, there fine if you go general skating but i personally wouldnt wear them for hockey!
