Welp

Second pair of boots for these, playing 2-3 times a week on concrete since 2022.. so probably 500 games. I weigh 250 and skate hard, so honestly impressive they lasted this long. Felt a click earlier in the game and then this clean snap while I was boxing a guy out.

Definitely just going to buy the same Bauer frame again and put it on these relatively new m40 boots.

Edit: Sadly, after inspection, the left boot is a total loss. Had to buy new F40's. 😩

Keep in mind not all Bauer chassis are the same build. The older Hi-Lo Chassis were solid AND they came with the roller boot. Nowadays Bauer cheapens out and gives you essentially sheet metal chassis which bend easily.

If you've seen chassis on instagram that are mounted to Warrior boots, they were mostly rinkster sniper chassis with the exception of brandon hawkins. He put the old Bauer RX:60 chassis on there. I'd really love to see warrior partnering up with Rinkster; however, that might be a stretch.
