Hi - my 12U daughter is 5'9 and 125# at 11 and rapidly outgrowing her skates. We're hoping that this will be the last big foot-growth spurt so looking to invest in some good skates.

She's skated in Bauer Vapors her who life (currently X5 pros) and we're considering the following:

Bauer Fly40
CCM JetSpeed FT890

She's tried them on in our local shop and likes them both so we're going back and forth.

BUT... the guy helping us mentioned the CCM FTW skates which he does NOT carry but says have increased in popularity with women.

My daughter has tried on alot of the FTW equipment in the past and prefers STARK, but wondering if anyone has tried the FTW skates and if they're truly "better suited" to a woman's body than the Fly40 or FT890. Or... if this is just a clever marketing tactic out of CCM.

Appreciate your insight!

So I do a lot of real estate video and am looking to see if there's a simpler way to do this. I use our high resolution photography to create listing video walkthroughs (for instagram) of our properties and am constantly trying to pan/move through a property photo that's natively 16:9. Typically I use the Kling 3.0 model in Higgsfield but am open to other models if they work better.

All of the suggestions I've had before are to crop a start frame from one end of the photo and an end frame cropped from the image next to it. Generate video - then repeat until my video spans the entire 16:9 video.

There's GOT to be a better way to do this! I mean I'm using Higgsfield which is this super intelligent machine that I "should" be able to use the 16:9 as the start and end frame and then use a prompt that will tell it to pan right creating a 9:16 output (but that doesn't work if the start frame is 16:9.

Anyone have thoughts or suggestions on this? Thanks!

Ok. I’ve visited the dealer with this - no help

I’ve visited my local shop - no help

I’ve visited a suspension focused shop - no help

Suspension has been inspected and said to be in great shape. But this sound has continually gotten worse over the last few months.

Only noticeable at slow speeds

Any bump or body rocking will trigger the clicking sound

Doesn’t matter if tires are turned or not

6 month old tires (sound started 3 months after install)

All maint has been regularly done.

Any ideas? I’m sure they haven’t taken 4wd apart or ball joints off but I’m tired of getting an all clear from various shops.

Thanks in advance.
