between the first 2

Answer 1

None of them are very good... If you're willing to spend more, look here:

Lots of better stuff. I don't know specific products since I play ice, but that's just a better selection with higher end products then the low end gear of each brand.

Answer 2

Mission has been in the rollerblade business the longest. I do tuneups and the Missions seem to hold up well. Onr minor thing I don't like is that they all ship with low durometer (soft) wheels. There should be an option to order with outdoor wheels.

Next to Mission, Tour also makes a very good skate. Remember, both of these companies are primarily roller blade companies first. Nike Bauer and RBK/CCM are ice hockey companies.

Answer 3

Mission BSX is better. I own the Nike Bauer ones and the sides often get wrinkled as I put them on and they bite into my leg. That hurts! The BSX are more durrable too. The Nike Bauer come with better wheels though.

Answer 4

i think the 2nd

Answer 5

the 2nd 1

Answer 6

I've not put either on my own feet but have had the same pair of hockey rollerblades for many years + they're Mission so that's what I'd go with. Incidentally for ice I wear CCM

Good link Jeff .. inlinewarehouse has IMO the most complete selection of roller hockey gear nationwide. (in the US that is)
