1/2" too sharp?

^^ I think most of the improvements have been made by the cowling itself, having a taller stance and the cut out. I can see how the 3mm blade would have a quicker transfer from outside to inside edge, but how often are we as goalies on our outside edges? I just purchased these skates and I'm excited to use them. Were you using a 3/8"ROH on your older goal skates too? Also, have you noticed any significant wear to the vertexx cut out? Ive seen some "horror stories" on them and I was a little weary of buying them.

I finally got to play yesterday, but I had a slip-out by the post and a kid walked through me. Someone threw me a speedstick and i figured it'd work. Went out after the ice cut and I couldn't shuffle at all. Probably should've left them the way they were until I got a chance to try sharper blades at practice.

Im currently using a half inch cut, contemplating going 3/8 soon though. If any of you arent using a one100 cowling, put it on your list for next gear upgrade

^^ maybe even taking a file to the inner side of your cowling and add step steel to increase the attack angle a little. just to hold you over until purchase of the ONE100.

yea go for 1/2 for sure im 14 and i use 1/2 becasuse im very butterfly so i like a sharp skate to improve butterfly slides

I switched this season from 3/4 to 1/2 and it has made a huge difference
In my quickness and in my recovery. The only downside it the get dull really fast so I need to sharpen them more often.
