Last game my wicked light chassi broke. It cracked at the very front wheel axle hole. I noticed Mission does not put out any more carbon fiber frames. Have there been problems with this frame? It kind of sucks. I took a long time off from hockey, so Ive played fewer than 40 times in these skates. BTW, it was from a puck hit, I know this cause there is a little puck still in the crack. Im looking for new chassis now, I kinda like the TUUK pro comp rocker chassis. Can anyone recommend anything?

I replaced my vibe chassis with a labeda sensor and I have been quite pleased with it. Its lightweight and durable, here is a link for it:

Yep - same thing happened to my son's skates about a year after he bought them. He sent them back to Mission and Mission replaced the frame with an Aluminum Generator frame for $40. No problem since.
From what I have heard, the carbon frame was a disaster along the lines of the Tour Fishbone skate.
