**Excerpt**
The X4 ice hockey skate is the third model in the stock 2023 Bauer Vapor lineup and delivers great speed and acceleration for the performance level player. Building on the performance of the previous generation 3X skate, the new X4 model integrates motion flex facing with a pro stock 40oz felt tongue for improved comfort and fit.
**Description**
When you have the lightest skate in the performance category, there’s only one thing left to do. Make it lighter! Having the lightest skate possible lets skaters work harder, skate faster, and finish every shift or practice with less fatigue. The evolution of Bauer's Junior and Youth skates continue to be uniquely designed and constructed – making it easier for the highly developing younger players to develop their skating stride.
Highlights
- Digi COMP Quarter – Softer construction and MotionFlex Technology increases the forward flex of the boot for more comfort. For younger player developing their stride, this ease of flex promotes building good technique.
- LIGHTSPEED (LS) EDGE Holder – The blade holder that’s trusted by over 80% of NHL players for a decade. This first of its kind holder features a quick release trigger to allow for fast steel replacement or service so you never have to miss a shift.
- LS Balance Blade – Combination of increased steel height and a 13-ft profile assists developing players with balance in all skating motions.
