The Bauer Vapor X900 goal skate is truly setting the standard for the mid range goal skate. The X900 features the same boot construction as its pro counterpart, the 1X, in the form of a 3D anaformable Curv Composite. Curv composite is a strong material that will hold the foot in a locked-in position, for more consistent strides on the ice, and protects the foot from any contact. The X900 boot is designed X-Wrap extended facing, to allow for more boot depth; the deeper boot design allows for the goalie to sit in their stance with less lace-tension and lace-bite. The most noticeable feature of the X900 goal skate is the all new VERTEXX EDGE holder, which closesly resembles that of a player holder, but, of course, it has a flat design to cater to the flat steel that goalies use. This new holder increases the overall skate height by 5mm, which then increases the goalie's attack angle by 10% from the original VERTEXX cowling and 38% from any traditional cowling. The X900s feature Bauer's 3mm LS1G stainless steel runner, which is removable with the trigger release system. ERGOTOE is a reinforced toe cap that protects the foot from any pucks that hit the toe box.
