  1. Tendon Guard Repair

    25 January 2012 - 11:25 AM

    So, I have a pair of Bauer One35s, and as you can see in the attached picture, the tendon guards are tearing. George's in St. Paul will repair and reinforce them for $45 a skate. Paying this price hardly seems worth it since these skates were my entry-level skates (I'm half way through my third year playing), they don't even make them anymore, and the few pairs you can find are going for about $100. So, paying $90 to repair a pair of 3-year-old skates worth $100 seems silly. On the other hand, I like them well enough, though to be fair, I really have nothing to which to compare them. So, the question is, do I replace them now or wait to the end of the season and get new ones for next year? Or, what the hell do the tendon guards do, besides the obvious (protect someone from slicing through one's achilles tendon)? Does it make any difference if they are hanging on by a thread?
