what a PITA looking for new skates... online prices are great on last years models (was looking for 6k rbk) but impossible to find them at stores to try them on.

So I said forget this... My 2003 Mission DNA D1 are extrememly comfortable and I'm not ready to ditch the Hi-Lo platform just yet...

so...a major tube up.

New Wheels: Labeba Grippers Extra Soft
New bearings: Bones Swiss 608 Bearings
New Waxed laces.

Just like new and cant wait to go plan on monday!!!

Those skates don't look as though they've seen much action. Why did you think you needed new skates?:confused:

the picture is somewhat deceiving..most of the wear is on the inner part of the skates. The rubber bumper on that side is completely worn down and the leather is started to get soft. After I thought about it...they have some life left.
