One of my favourite things to do is lace up the skates and go for a rip around the rink a few times. I know I'm nowhere near the best but it's so much fun every year! So let's take a look back at the history of Ice skates!

Hey Guys! Thanks for watching the video! I'm really enjoying how creative I can get with videos! I've been busy with videos for other youtube channels but I will try my best to make sure this channel never dies! (Also don't judge my skating lol)
Hey @In the Slot you should make a video about the history of Joe Louis Arena here in Detroit MI
Okay
Please up load
Come back
That’s a great message you included at the end, thanks for promoting hockey and skating in general! 👍👍
Try to imagine old players like Phil Esposito and rocket rashard had like ccm tacks 3.0 that would be insane

And as an hockey fan of irish descent I love the St. Pat's jersey!
Same Here and The Leafs were originally called the St. Pats!
@@hendawg7boss40 It's part of the evolution. Protestant British Toronto, the majority, preferred the color blue, while Catholics, particularly the Irish, preferred green. The owners made the final choice, with Conn Smythe coloring his Leafs blue. (Ironically, the poor backward soul that he was, he didn't support Canada's new Maple Leaf flag, preferring a British naval Ensign).
My favorite skates I ever had were the BAUER SUPREME 4000 Composites. Bought in the fall of 95’ Awesome skates.
Finally. I wasn't sure if this channel had died.
I ended up getting some work at Sportsnet! Thats where I've been

@@IntheSlot imagine if you worked with the bardown boys that would have been insane
Sadly it did

Interested video, thank you. My father worked for Bauer in the late 70's early 80's. He was worked on the 100 series and I remember getting a test pair before they came to market. It was so, so cool!
That's actually very cool!
He probably worked on the Bauer Black Panther skates. My 1st big purchase around 50 bucks or so in the 70s.
your back :D
Not for long
The picture at 3:09 is actually a private high school in Massachusetts called The Williston Northampton School. I work at the rink here, and the kids still skate on that pond when it's cold enough. Great tradition to keep alive
Very informative, you covered items I did not have a clue about. Great job!
I had CCM tack goalie skates back in the 70s and 80s, with kangaroo pouch leather insoles. They were good, but heavy. I remember when the Lang hinged molded plastic skate came out and how much lighter it was. Can only imagine how light they are now with nanomaterials and carbon fiber, not to mention improvement in steel manufacturing. Go to the Hockey Hall of Fame and look at what the original stars skated on and the technical revolution comes into perspective.
Very interesting and welcome back
LOVE the message at the end because it’s so true
The history of Ice Hockey fights
The quality 🤤🤤 glad to see that your back bro!!!
Nice history! Well done. I remember switching to Tuik blades and how light they were!
Very Informative!! Thanks you!
Modern hockey skates are just absurd with how hard the boots are . Prior to 2003 I never had an issue with lace bite or comfort. I get it's for protection and energy transfer etc., but I like my feet and ankles to do the majority of the work. I use a pair of Bauers from 1999 primarily, and I have such a better feel and connection with the ice than I do with my modern skates. They are so much more comfortable because the boot moves with your foot. And, I'm sure the leather boots from the 60's & 70's are that much more comfortable than my 90's boots.
Great video and I hope all is well with you!
Thanks for coming back, there are people out there that love your content and you’ll 100% keep growing
I hope so! thanks for watching!
I've always skated on Bauer supremes. My brother always skated ccm tacks. He's older, so I tried his hand-me-down skates one time, and I hated them. I'll never skate in anything other than Bauer supremes.
awesome video. Always loved your content considering there isn’t much high quality hockey videos. Hope to see more in the future
Thanks! Will do!
Great videos!! Thanks for the #info and #history
you need to post waaay more! Your my favorite youtubet
The mid-90's Bauer logo used very predominantly in this video is the absolute definitive article. Much better looking that what they're using right now.
Good to see you back, hope you're doing ok in this madness!
Trying my best hope you're doing well too!
Imagine if the guys from the 50s had today's skates how awesome they be!
They would have to had benefited by the improved nutrition, the powerskating and hockey schools, and the hockey wisdom of succeeding generations of fantastic players who developed the game. Then, sure, they might be Allstars.. if they could compete with the internationalized competition to enter the NHL.
New skates are not faster. They are actually slower. Too stiff. No ankle extension
@@vibratingstring lmao
Another great video!
Glad you like them!
That was a fantastic cut at 0:13 your editing has taken a huge step up!!!!!
I'm happy you noticed! Film school has definitely helped!
Nice broo!!!
All I remember is that learning to skate at the age of 7 with those skates from the mid 60’s was pretty hard on my young ankles…😂😂😂
Great video! Finally got my first own skates yesterday but the ice has already melted :(
Don't worry bro! It always comes back!!! Enjoy the skates!
Ice sk8ing is my favorite activity
Thank you for this! Very fun way to learn about the history of skates. I did however find the music hard to get over, it got repetitive, fast! But, thank you.
I was wondering when and where and why people decided one day to strap bits of metal to a boot and make it into a beautiful as well as a speedy art form.. as someone who one day put on a pair of skates and liked it back more than 20 years ago, I didn't really think about, until now that is, why anyone would venture onto ice and speed around with grace..it's not like the gracefulness is automatic for everyone, you know! I even think it counter-intuitive to do the things we do.. and yet we do them.. Thank you for giving me a clue how far back my hobby goes. :)
3:24 No forward passes in hockey!? That's crazy!
Glad you gave a shoutout to Speed Skates, however that is one of 2 types of Speed Skates: Long Track (AKA Clap Skates), and Short Track, I personally do Short Track and with them, the blade is fixed to the boot and held with a tubular steel bar, mine are 17 Inches long, Long Track skates like what you had are only fixed in the front, with a hinge and spring loaded mechanism, allowing the full blade to be in contact with the ice for longer
Three speed skates. Clack skates and original fixed blade long track, and short track
@@vibratingstring However who uses fixed blades for long track anymore?
Very interesting hi from Kitchener Ontario
I await the return
You need to tighten those skates way tighter! You'll get so much more control and less wobbly ankles.
Love this content. Keep it up. If you could do a stick one that would be electric. I’m a broadcast journalism major so if you need help lmk know
I actually have one about Sticks already! but you know I always wanted to do a video on the History of Hockey on Television! When I'm doing that i'll try and hit you up!
Bro I might have to do a tims commercial for the first time cus I play hockey and I’m nervous asf
What's the name of the intro music?
when did tuuks go from black to white?
bendeeerrrrr alerrrrrt lol
where are you we NEED YOU
could you do one for goalie skates??
I hope to make an update video for all my videos as sort of a "facts I missed" video. I'll try to include that in there!
History of goalie gear? (like I mean the full equitment)
So in other words, Australia has more involvment with early development of ICE-skates than Canada?!?!
*sees 0 dislikes* Me: I know what I must do but I don’t know if I have the strength to do it
I wouldn't even be mad this comment radiates the meme energy I love
What's the average price of a good pair of hockey skates these days?
You can get a good pair of new Bauer skates for about $100.
Post?
Evolution on Speed skates?
I mostly focus on hockey, but when i hit 10,000 subscribers i hope to branch out so i'll keep that in mind :)
I Hope he OK
It’s feel like you’re eating a dry bread and talking at the same time
HAH! GOTCHA! It was crackers.
1:10 The Finnish men had to fight for their right to use these legbones for building skates. The women wanted to use them for something else.
Graf canada ruined graf skates with cheaper metrals and a boot that can only last a year
Excellent vid, check my goalie dangles.
BCE instead of BC. 🙄
Way too little in terms of the history 1900 to 1950.
Wtf is CE?
