Mission Vibe

**missionhockey21** · 09-12-2002, 09:45 PM

I have had my proto vsi's with the vibe chasiss for two years now and have tinkered around with the tighting and loosing with the axel's and I have never seem to have got in anything satisfactory of it. Does any one have any recommendation of how much to tighten/lossen the bolts, because whenever I changed them around it always made them feel awkward. So if anyone has something that works well for them please share, thanks.

You know this may sound like a knock, but it is meant seriously. In my experience there have been very few players, who really like the Vibe chassis. Some seem to tolerate it, but many have switched the chassis off their Mission skates to something more effective. Personally I am a Rocker guy, though some have switched back to Hi-Los. Either way, this may be your best option. Others may respond differently, and I am only going by what I have read, and conversations with other players I know. I have read speculation that Mission will not be using the Vibe at all on future skates, which should signal, their impression of how the Vibe has been received.

i really dont see the fuss over the vibe's either, i am going to keep with them till i get the tour g90's. But since i got them the 1st day they came out and paid more money for them to have the vibe i am just trying to get the most i can get out of them.

I love the Vibe. I have mine set on five wich is the maximum turns.

Thanks, I am going to try that setting out tommorow and see if the turning and stopping feel better.

first of all that guy(95 sniper or something) said he loves the vibe and has it on 5 turns. well let me tell you something, 5 turns locks out the vibe which means you have regular hi lo with plastic pieces sticking out of the side of the shocks. listen buddy i bout the missions type m and used them for about a week. the skate itself was pretty good but the vibe was terrible and i couldnt bear to use it because it was useless and just got in the way of my hard turns and stops.i sold them to some kid for a little bit of a loss, then i bought the tour g90s the first week them came out and let me tell you how sick these skates are. they are awesome, stiff on outside and soft like a diaper on inside. and that labeda sensor chasis is pretty fast once you get used to it in like a week or to of playing almost everyday.

I feel am starting to feel the same way about the vibes, the only reason I asked was because after paying $400 for them and being disappointed I was hoping to find something to make them woth the cost. But thats what I am stuck with until I get another $250 for the tour g90's, and its took me forever just to get $150

Nope I checked the paper. 5 is the maximum turns for the vibe to get the stopping and turning ability and 0 turns make it perform like a traditional Hi lo. But you can think whatever. Im not here to argue.
